Mrs. Fletcher stopped her husband, who was about to say something. She noted, “Helena, there was
some unpleasant things between us and I don’t want to visit you at this point to interrupt. However, it
was your son who flirted with our daughter when she was about to give him up. Cora told me she had
sex with Zachariah last night. You can deny it, but we already did a check in the hospital to verify. We
will call the police when the result comes out. You can tell Zachariah that we don’t want our respect but
our reason. I simply want to inform you that it is not easy to bully our Fletcher family.”
Mrs. Chambers’ eyes darkened.
She knew the Fletcher family was coming with purpose, but she didn’t expect they would come up with
such a malicious solution.
It would cause damage to both of the families by calling the police. It seemed that the relation between
the two families really came to an end. Because of their children, even good friends for decades would
become strangers.
“Bradwen, I think there must be a misunderstanding for Zachariah to have sex with Cora. Both of our
families are prestigious, it’s not a good solution by calling the police to damage their fame. Especially
for Cora, she is a girl and will merry someone later. Do you really want her to carry that notorious title? I
am not on Zachariah’s side. If he really has done something wrong, we will compensate you and I
suppose that’s also the reason for you to visit.”
Mrs. Fletcher smiled and remarked in sarcasm, “Compensate? Helena, are you treating us like three-
year-old kids? You have promised us for the compensation but haven’t taken action for months. Our
Cora has done abortion and tried to suicide, then she got abandoned when she was still in hospital.
You guys didn’t even give us an explanation, but now you’re claiming you will compensate us. That’s
the biggest joke I’ve ever heard.”
She then waited for a while and finally decided to break relation with the Chambers family. Mrs.
Fletcher’s words were harsh, saying, “I don’t want your family’s compensation. I just want to find Cora
justice with my husband. Zachariah can only choose between getting divorce to marry Cora and being
accused of rape. I think his crime will be true when the result comes out. Just think about it.”
Mrs. Chambers’ expression stiffened.
Zachariah clenched his fist and remarked, “Aunt Fletcher, I treat you as the elder person and won’t say
terrible things with you. I can’t deny that I had sex with Cora, but I was framed up. I will find the person
behind and give you an explanation. However, I will not marry Cora. You can sue me if you want. I have
always done the right things and am not afraid at all.”
Mrs. Fletcher stared at him.
Actually, they didn’t plan to sue Zachariah by coming to visit. Even if they won the court, Cora’s fame
would be ruined and it would be hard for her to marry into a corresponding family. They simply wanted
to frighten the Chambers family today and let Zachariah know that the Fletcher family couldn’t be
bullied easily with their fortune and status in the business world.
Cora’s heart hurt a lot when looking at Zachariah’s emotionless expression.
She loved this man so much. They used to be in a good relation when he loved her a lot and forgave
everything she did. He also could tolerate her moody temper. However, she never expected that he
married somebody else after they getting apart for only four or five years. She didn’t mind to be the
third party in his marriage and he had promised her he would get divorce to marry her. Cora wished
someone she would be in her wedding dress to fulfil their commitment of holding a wedding. However,
they suddenly became strangers.
Cora still loved him profoundly, but there was another woman Zachariah cared about.
The worst thing about love was when you loved someone deeply but he loved somebody else.
Cora used to think she was a perfect match with Zachariah and everyone would be jealous of them.
She was willing to cook for him if they married. She imagined a range of pictures about their married
love in their sweet future. They would spend one or two years with each other and then would plan to
have a cute little baby. Life would be wonderful for a family with loving parents and their baby.
However, the reality slapped her hardly. She just spent a few sweet months with Zachariah when he
completely changed his mind and decided to go back to his family. Cora got abandoned. She didn’t
know whose fault for all those things.
“Zach, don’t try to find excuses for yourself. I don’t care whether you’re framed up or not. It cannot be
denied that you already had sex with Cora.
Just tell us what are you going to do about it. Don’t try to avoid the trouble. I won’t let you win.” Mrs.
Fletcher remarked in a harsh way.
Zachariah compressed his lips.
Mrs. Fletcher continued, “Didn’t you just say you will compensate her? We have come up with a
solution on the way. It is fine for you not to marry her. Cora has lots of admirers. However, we want five
percent of the Chambers Group’s share as compensation, otherwise, we will meet you on court.”
Zachariah showed a colder expression, while Mrs. Chambers blinked her eyes worriedly.
The Chambers Group was a huge company that owned more than ten thousand staff. It would be a big
number for a five percent share compared with other companies. Mrs. Fletcher was really a greedy
person.
“Bradwen, do you also hold the same opinion? Our families have been friends for years. Are you really
going to cut off our relation because of fortune?” Mrs. Chambers looked at Mr. Fletcher and tried to
convince him with reasons.
Mrs. Fletcher blocked her husband in her back. She waved her hands and remarked, “Helena, don’t try
to play the so-called friendship trick. Our daughter has suffered a lot by being with your son. Why don’t
you solve that out based on our old relation? Cora got abortion, tried to suicide and raped by your son.
Is it far to compensate us with only five percent of the Chambers Group’s share? We are not lack of
fortune. That’s the compensation Cora is supposed to get. You can choose to give it or get sued. Our
family is not afraid of losing face.”
Mrs. Chambers glanced at Zachariah.
