Chapter 536: Chapter 536

Mrs. Chambers lay in bed for nearly an hour before she regained consciousness. Everyone came forward and gathered around her. Savannah inquired with anxiety and worry, “Mom, are you alright?”

Mrs. Chambers just looked at Ophelia and Zachariah.

Ophelia came close and said docilely, “I’m sorry, Helena.”

Mrs. Chambers snorted and spoke in a tough attitude, “Ophelia, don’t take Tommy away if you still respect me. He’s my grandson and one of the Chambers. You can’t just take him from me. Or you’re killing me.”

Ophelia stared at her with a complicated feeling. She opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say.

Mrs. Chambers then changed her attitude and said gently, “Ophelia, you know I’ve been nice to you and you know this better than anyone else. You have two choices, either no divorce or leaving Tommy here. I can let Zachariah give you a lot of money that will be enough to keep you a rich life in the future.”

Ophelia’s eyes were red with tears. What Helena said made her feel out of breath.

Zachariah put his arms around her shoulder and saved her from the pressure of Mrs. Chambers smoothly. “Mother, you need to take a good rest.”

Mrs. Chambers glared at him and questioned, “Zachariah, do you really want me to die?”

Zachariah lowered his head and said in heavy voice, “No. I didn’t mean that.”

Mrs. Chambers strived to get up from the bed. Mr. Chamber stepped forward to support her with his hands and said with concern, “Helena, take it easy.”

“How could I take it easy? My son only cared about his wife while his mother was almost made to die. And he just sat by and watched it. I may as well die now so that they won’t be bothered.” Mrs. Chambers cried with her hands clenched at her bosom.

She didn’t do anything else but her words like a dagger stabbed into Ophelia’s and Zachariah’s hearts, making them feel themselves unfilial.

Ophelia couldn’t help crying. She said, “Helena, we can talk about it later.

You need rest now.”

Mrs. Chambers watched her and begged, “Ophelia, don’t divorce with Zachariah. You two make up and I will feel better.”

But Ophelia stayed silent. Thus, Mrs. Chambers pretended to feel unwell again and said, “Are you really going this far?”

“No, Helena,” Ophelia explained anxiously, “It was hard but I’ve been very happy to have Tommy. He’s my boy and I don’t want your money. I can’t live without him. Helena, please forgive me and don’t push me. You are a mother and you should understand a mother’s heart. And I’m begging you.

Don’t take Tommy away from me. Please...”

She was so sad and so desperate.

Mrs. Chambers pressed her hand to the chest and said, “You are forcing me to die. I just want my grandson while you don’t let him stay. How cruel you are!”

Ophelia looked at her without saying anything.

Zachariah argued, “Mother, even if Ophelia takes the custody of Tommy, you can still go to see him. Ophelia has never cut off your relationship. So, please don’t judge her like that. You said you liked her. Then why can’t you just respect our decision this time?”

He paused and kept speaking, “Mom, we’ll respect you and love you as always. Nothing will change.”

But Mrs. Chambers looked depressed.

Savannah stood out and said, “Zachariah, don’t you know what Mom means? She doesn’t want Ophelia and Tommy go. She has stayed with Tommy for so long while you just gave the custody to Ophelia so easily. Have you cared about her feeling? You know Mom likes kids. She had been longing for a baby and talked about this for many times since you and Ophelia got married four years ago. Then finally, Tommy was born. And now, you’re going to divorce. Can’t you see how sad Mom is?”

Zachariah cast a warning glare at her.

Savannah curled her lips and said stubbornly, “Don’t be mad at me. I just tell you how Mom feels. Ophelia forgets herself and hurts Mom’s feeling.

Do you think Mom will favor her as before?”

Ophelia heard this and couldn’t help trembling. There was a fleeting moment of sorrow in her eyes. Zachariah held her in his arms, giving her comfort and strength in silence. “Mother, take a rest. I think you may not be happy to see us now,” he said.

Mrs. Chambers closed her eyes with no hesitation.

Zachariah brought Ophelia outside silently. They went out of the mansion and walked along the lake, feeling the breeze. Ophelia got out of his arms subconsciously and she gazed at the rippling lake with a heavy heart.

Zachariah stared at her and asked, “For what?”

“It was because of me but I didn’t want Helena to be like this. Will you blame it to me?”

“No. I didn’t work it out. I made a mistake. If I told them early, they might not blame you. I should say sorry.”

He wanted to touch her hair but she dodged away as he got close. He had to put his hands down in frustration.

Ophelia watched the lake and suddenly said with a slight voice, “Zach, probably we should have never married at first. A marriage with special purposes was a mistake. If we never met, nothing would have happened. You could have a matched wife, a cute baby and a nice family, and everyone would be happy.”

Zachariah wore a complicated expression. “Don’t think about it. Mother was just in anger. She will think it through soon. You don’t have to worry about Tommy’s custody. I’ll keep my promise.”

Ophelia took a glance at him. He appeared calm and seemed not remorseful because of Mrs. Chambers’ accidental sickness. He didn’t even have much ups and downs in mood when speaking of their divorce. Thus, Ophelia got a mixed feeling.
