“Mrs. Fletcher, the party has already begun. Please leave together with your parents. Ophelia and
Zachariah still have others to greet. They don’t have time to waste.” Madeleine purled up her lips and
remarked.
Cora gathered her gaze and turned to glance at her and then Tommy in her arms. When finding Tommy
has a handsome and delicate look, a sense of jealousy suddenly passed over her eyes.
“Is he Zach’s son? He looks so handsome, but he doesn’t look like Zach. Are you carrying a wrong
child?” Cora asked viciously.
Madeleine lowered her head to check Tommy. She then raised up her head and remarked sarcastically,
“Miss Fletcher, it seems not only you ruins your brain after suicide, but also gets poor eyesight. The
others all say Tommy looks similar with his parents and has inherits all of their merits. What do you
mean by saying they don’t look the same? That really makes people doubt about your vicious mind.”
Cora bit her lips. She reached out her hands and asked, “Can I hold him for a while? I always dream of
a little child after I have an abortion. I really like children when I see them and wish to convey my love
towards my unborn child to them.”
The child Cora once carried was a sharp weapon for her to remind Zachariah as well as a stab on
Ophelia’s heart. Although Ophelia said she didn’t mind it, as long as she loved Zachariah, she wouldn’t
allow the man she loved to have relation with another woman and even had a baby.
Hence, every time Cora mentioned that thing, Ophelia’s heart would feel hurt. However, she still smiled
and didn’t let others tell she was cared about their past relation.
Madeleine held Tommy more tightly and noted, “Miss Fletcher, I am sorry. Normally I won’t handle
Tommy to a bitch. Who knows if that bitch will accidentally drop him on the ground? Well, I am so sorry,
Miss Fletcher. I didn’t mean that you’re that bitch.”
Cora showed a more terrible expression.
Mrs. Fletcher went forward and glared at Madeleine, threatening, “Madeleine, don’t go too far.
Otherwise, don’t blame me to treat you badly.”
Madeleine wanted to argue but was pulled backwards by Ophelia.
“Madeleine, you can carry Tommy upstairs. Zachariah and I will handle this. Tommy is still a baby. We
cannot scare him.”
Madeleine could only carry Tommy upstairs.
Ophelia looked at Mrs. Fletcher and showed a young hostess’s manner, “Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher, I am
really glad that you can spare your time to join Tommy’s first month party. I welcome you very much.
The guests are gathered around in that way. If you think it’s noisy in the hall, you can also go outside.
We have also prepared some seats outside.” Ophelia said politely.
Mrs. Fletcher purled up her lips and noted, “Well, don’t play tricks with us. We just want to see whether
your son can survive. After all, Cora’s baby can’t be abolished in vain while your family lives happily
together. There is no such thing in the world.”
Ophelia showed a completely terrible expression.
“Mrs. Fletcher, if you’re not here to bless my child, please leave.” Ophelia remarked coldly.
Zachariah embraced Ophelia and stopped looking at the Fletcher family, saying gently, “Ophelia, come
one, I will introduce you to an elder senior who have helped me in business.”
Ophelia nodded.
Zachariah put arms around her and was ready to leave. However, Cora suddenly grabbed his hand.
Zachariah stopped, turned around and looked at her hand coldly.
“Let me go!” Zachariah commanded seriously.
Cora got hurt by his indifferent attitude.
She raised up her face and showed Zachariah a fragile look, saying, “Zach, why are you being so cruel
to me?”
Zachariah took back his hands and remarked in a distant tone, “Miss Fletcher, watch your manner. I
have already had a wife.”
As if hearing the biggest joke in the world, Cora wanted to laugh out loudly and sure she did. However,
her smile was extremely bitter.
“Zach, what did you just call me?” Cora couldn’t believe her hears. She also couldn’t accept the truth
that Zachariah would take back all of his old feelings towards her.
However, if Cora was smart, she wouldn’t force a man to make a choice in the public. If a man still had
conscience, he wouldn’t get too cruel to make his wife lose face in the public. Even if he didn’t like his
wife, he would still show the basic respect. Therefore, when Cora wanted to show she was still
entangled with Zachariah, it was reasonable for Zachariah to get rid of all of their relations.
“Miss Fletcher, you haven’t fully recovered yet. I think it’s better for you to have a rest first.” Zachariah’s
hand, which was encircling around Ophelia’s waist, used more strength to hint her to stop thinking
nonsense.
Cora showed a more bitter smiled and remarked, “Zach, back to the time when we loved each other,
you used to call me baby and honey when we made out. You don’t have to call me in such an
unfamiliar way now. You have promised me that you will cherish me as if I am a princess. Have you
forgotten all of your promises?”
Zachariah’s expression completely darkened.
He had never called her baby or even honey. He was a realistic man and didn’t like to play romantic
tricks. He liked to start from reality if he loved a woman.
He could tell Cora was trying to distant the relationship between he and Ophelia.
Zachariah lowered his head and kissed on Ophelia’s forehead, suggesting gently, “Let’s go.”
Ophelia nodded and told Cora, “Miss Fletcher, it’s better for you to leave now.”
Cora clenched her fist tightly and a twisted expression emerged on her face.
She wanted to quarrel with her but was stopped by her father. Seeing Ophelia, who was held by
Zachariah in the distance, Mr. Fletcher remarked, “Cora, it is you who beg your mom and I to lead you
to Tommy’s first month party. I have made my promise. Can we leave now?”
