The colour drained from the man’s face. He supported his arms to crawl towards Zachariah, making
blood stained everywhere as he moved.
“Young master, it was me who committed the crime. I was spellbound by money. If you want to get
revenge, pour all of your anger on me instead of my daughter. She’s innocent. She doesn’t know
anything. Please.” The man begged in pain.
A flicker of viciousness passed over Zachariah’s eyes. He couldn’t forget the sense of asphyxia he felt
when Ophelia had the car accident. He couldn’t forget her pale look when she was brought out of the
surgery room. In the rest of his life, he never wanted to experience the feeling of afraid to lose his true
love again.
He looked at the man, who was begging by his feet, coldly. He then sneered as he remarked, “Now
you’re begging me to forgive your daughter, but have you ever thought Ophelia was carrying with a
seven-month baby when you hit her on your car? Both my wife and my child could be dead. Not only
would my wife be gone, but I may never see my son. Who will be responsible if that really happens?”
The man, who was still begging when kneeling on the ground, showed a miserable look.
He growled repressively, as if regretting for what he had done on impulse.
Cohen soon led Savannah in. Savannah was still complaining endlessly as she got in, “Cohen, I have
warned you that I will peel your skin off if my brother doesn’t have anything important to say.”
At the point she finished her speech, she noticed the man who almost passed over because of great
pain. She got extremely astonished when finding who the man was. She stepped back subconsciously
and turned around to leave. However, she was stopped by Cohen and was then pushed back.
Zachariah caught all of Savannah’s reaction in his eyes. His face changed and asked as he was
pointing at the man on the floor, “Savannah, do you know him?”
After a short time of terror, Savannah soon faked to act normally.
She pretended to respond in a despising tone, “Who is this guy? He’s in rags. How could it possible for
me to know him?”
The man, who was going to pass out, immediately shouted excitedly as soon as he noticed Savannah,
“Miss, you should say things in all conscience. It was you who asked me to find someone to hit Mrs.
Chambers. If I could manage to do that, you would offer me with three million as promised and would
find the best doctor to cure my wife…”
With great anger, Savannah went forward to kick on his body.
“Nonsense, nonsense. Who are you? How dare you instigate the quarrel between me and my brother?
It’s true that I don’t like my sister-in-law, but I will never lose my mind to find someone to hit her. She
was carrying with my little niece at that time. Why would I do that?”
With her hard kicks, the man was screaming in pain.
Zachariah remarked, “Enough! Savannah!”
Savannah stopped. Her chest was shrugging up and down because of anger.
“Brother, don’t believe in his words. Even if I turn crazy, I will never find someone to hurt my sister-in-
law.” Savannah looked at her brother and hurriedly defended herself.
Zachariah looked at her without saying anything or showing any emotion.
Savannah wanted to look elsewhere when being stared by him. Zachariah’s gaze was too sharp, as if
he could observe all of her evil thoughts.
“Bro, brother, what’s wrong? Why are you looking me in this way?” Savannah stammered.
“Savannah, do you think I treat you well?” Zachariah suddenly asked her.
Savannah’s heart couldn’t stop pounding quickly when looking into her brother’s deep eyes, which
seemed to understand her mind thoroughly. She had a feeling that the relation between them could
completely break if she didn’t give him a proper answer.
Savannah swallowed several saliva. She was extremely nervous and her brain was spinning quickly.
She hated Cora to the utmost degree. If it were not her deceptive words, she wouldn’t hire someone to
hit Ophelia out of impulse. Meanwhile, she also underestimated how much Ophelia weigh in her
brother’s heart.
She wouldn’t easily make the decision to frame up Ophelia in a car accident if she knew her brother
would take any manpower and resource he could find to search for the hit and run driver. She would
definitely make decision when everything was perfectly designed.
“Of course, brother, you always treat me nicely.” Ophelia swallowed again and answered in a careful
manner.
Zachariah looked at her complexly. A hint of depression was implied in his voice. “Savannah, if you
know that I treat you well, why did you hire someone to hurt my wife and son?”
Savannah completely got panicked. She shook her hands hardly, saying, “Brother, don’t listen to this
man’s nonsense. I have never met him before. How could I hire him to hurt my sister-in-law? Yes, I
admit that I don’t like her, but I am not crazy enough to hurt her and my future niece.”
The man, who was lying on the ground, heard her excuses. He strove to support himself, remarking,
“Miss, you can’t sling mud on me. I still have your commission in my account. I gave me one third at
that time. I spared half of it to others and took hundreds of thousands out to pay for my wife’s
treatment. The rest of money is still in my account. The remittance is from you.”
