Zachariah took another huge whiff of cigarette. When he let out the smoke, his face returned to be
composed again.
He stood up and shook off the dust on his clothes. When the smell of smoke started to fade in his
mouth, he turned around to get out. Then he headed to the ward of Ophelia.
Inside the ward, there were two more carers hired by him to tend Ophelia.
Seeing him walking over, both of the carers greeted with respect, “Welcome, Mr. Chambers.”
Zachariah waved his hand, “I need a private talk with her.”
“Yes, sir.”
The two carers stepped out of the ward quietly.
Ophelia blinked her eyes and smiled, “How is Miss Fletcher?”
Zachariah drew over a chair beside the bed to sit down. He reached out his hand to flip her hair
covering on her face backward, “How do you feel now? Are you still tired? Did the two carers do
something mean to you?”
Ophelia replied seriously while looking at him, “I am fine. What about Miss Fletcher?”
Zachariah slightly scratched her nose dotingly, “Come on, girl. You should spend more concern on
yourself. You have just run away from the edge of death. Now taking rest is your priority. And stop
thinking about nonsense.”
Ophelia smiled and replied caringly, “I am okay. But please don’t get yourself too exhausted if you feel
bothered because of Miss Fletcher. I am fine with the care of the two carers. I hope you can take some
time to rest.”
Upon hearing that, Zachariah felt like being struck in his heart.
Ophelia had always been concerned about him at any time. However, he had put her aside for almost
five years just because of Cora, who once failed him regardless of his great obsession. Even he
himself had no idea what made him so cold to her.
Now he felt like being stuffed with guilt. While looking at Ophelia, he could tell now his froze feelings
was rendered easily melted by her.
He could feel how much care she truly showed for him even from her simple words.
Zachariah gave another sweet scratch on her noes and said dotingly, “Girl, don’t you think sometimes
you really look adorably stupid.”
But that was what made him so infatuated with her.
Though she looked hot, sexy and decisive when dealing business, wherever she went, ladies would be
driven jealous while guys would get crazy for her, she still maintained her heart pure and innocent,
which sounded really incredible to others.
In the eyes of other guys, they only deemed her the vent of sexual desire. While in the eyes of ladies,
they deemed her a shameless mistress fancy hooking up with whoever men she encountered.
However, this lady still showed great concern with him at any time even under the pressure of being
misjudged. She cared about him and worried herself when thinking that he might get himself tired. She
could even bear the pain when she gave him away to her rival on her own initiative. He couldn’t help
wondering what caused her ridiculous sacrifice.
As the more he knew about it, the more guilty he started to feel.
Ophelia smiled, “I don’t think so but you do.”
Zachariah smiled to reply, “Of course you are stupid. You were so stupid that you even chose to spare
your husband for someone else. Why don’t you be a bit more selfish?”
‘If so, I could be less guilty…’ he thought to himself.
Being cold and indifferent to her for nearly five years really rendered him guilty.
No wonder Madeleine once accused him of being cold-blooded and mean. Now as he recalled what he
had done to her before, he couldn’t agree more.
Ophelia asked, “So Mr. Chambers, do I need to do something for the matter of Miss Fletcher?”
Zachariah tucked her in, “You need to do nothing but to rest. Let me handle it.”
Actually, Ophelia was indeed tired.
As she had been staying awake for so long, she now felt really sleepy. Her eyelids still struggled and
soon she fell asleep.
Zachariah still fixed his eyes on her, who was sleeping. No one could tell what was in his mind.
Wilfred, who was about to head to the hospital to visit Ophelia, was suddenly stopped by Liliana.
“Wilfred, the driver who hit Miss Lowe has confessed that he was paid by a fashion-dressing lady with
pretty face. The lady offered him three million while one third of which was paid beforehand. As long as
he could kill Ophelia, the balance would be transferred to his account in no time. But the point is that
the lady has a surname of Chambers. We have done some investigation and found that she is the
sister of Zachariah. That means the culprit is the sister-in-law of Ophelia.” Said Liliana coldly.
Wilfred wore a solemn face. After pondering, he asked, “Are you sure?”
Liliana nodded, “So Wilfred, what’s your plan? Shall we make someone hit her to revenge?”
Wilfred responded with silence only.
Lilian gazed at him and said unbiasedly, “Wilfred, according to the rule of the company, we shall bear
the responsibility if anything malicious impacts on our customer in the midst of our mission.”
Wilfred still remained silent.
“Wilfred, are you getting softhearted?” asked Liliana.
Wilfred shook his head and said, “The Chambers has gone into a mess because of the accident. If now
something bad happened to Savannah, even Ophelia might be disturbed.”
Liliana frowned while looking at him with mixed feelings.
She moved her lips to ask tentatively, “Wilfred, you seem to care about her?”
Wilfred looked at her, “What do you mean?”
Liliana stared at him with both arms supporting against the edge of the desk. A sense of curiosity
seemed to burn in her eyes, “Wilfred, do you have a crush on Miss Lowe?”
