âAs long as weâre still married, you are my wife, it is natural for a husband to hug his wife, or do you think I am dirty that I touch Cora?â Zachariah hit the point. He hadnât wanted to mention Cora, it was just that Cora was like the thorn in their love, if they didnât pull it out it would only get more and more painful and then turn worst. It was better to be blunt than secretive so the barrier that stood between them would be gone.
Opheliaâs body stiffened for a moment and then struggled gently, but Zachariahâs hug tightened.
Ophelia had mixed feelings in her heart and buried herself in his arms, saying, âIs it proper to say it now? I know that Cora is unique in your heart, and no matter how many years I am by your side, Iâll always be her stand-in. I admit that I look a bit like her, but I am Ophelia.â
The lines on his face became serious all of a sudden.
Coraâs sake in Opheliaâs heart was more serious than he had imagined.
âYou are not her double, and I have no fetish for speaking love to flawed substitutes,â Zachariah said as if to show his loyalty as he wrapped his arms around Ophelia.
Opheliaâs eyes heated up.
She raised her head, swallowed back the tears in her eyes, gently broke away from Zachariahâs embrace and said, âIâm a little tired and want to rest.â
Zachariah looked at his empty hand and his eyes instantly became sad.
He lowered his head, hiding the emotional fluctuations in his eyes, and when he raised his head, he still looked at Ophelia with softness and said, âOK. When you wake up, sign your name on these documents, and these properties will be yours.â
Ophelia gave him a look and said, âI wonât accept it. I would have accepted such a big temptation if it was a year ago, but now I donât want them, I donât want our marriage to become so bad, I donât want it to be tainted with money, do you understand what I mean? Our marriage was a mistake to begin with, now I just want it back to the way it was, will you let me leave Chambers Family in peace?â
An upset aura flickered in his eyes.
âFine, youâll sign your name to these when youâve figured it out, Iâm in no hurry.â Zachariah put the belt away. In his opinion, it was just a formality that Ophelia was destined to be his wife, and Tommy was the sole heir of the Group, so everything in Chambers Family would be Tommyâs in the future.
There was no point in signing these documents or not.
Ophelia lay down directly on the bed, covered with the quilt, closed her eyes and said, âIâm a bit tired, can you go out?â
Zachariah looked at Ophelia who was curled up into a ball and looked even more petite, he couldnât help but feel an ache in his heart.

âTake a good rest.â Zachariah left the bedroom and went downstairs.
