Zachariah looked at Chester with complicated expression in his eyes, and said with a subdued voice,
“You know what? Chester, whether I divorce with Ophelia or not afterwards, I warn you, she is still my
wife, and if you do consider me as your friend, you should never say anything like that!”
A smile lifted the corner of Chester’s mouth, as if he had already seen everything hidden deep
underneath Zachariah.
Then he said, “Well, I really don't think that you're ready to divorce her. Although you said you had
made up your mind, while at the same time didn't want any other men to chase her afterwards. Can I
make the conclusion that you still have her in your heart?”
Zachariah flushed, his face twisted and then said with a bit of anger, “Dare you say one more word
about that, or I will not be so good-tempered!”
“Take it easy, my friend.” Chester stepped forwards, put one of his hands on Zachariah's shoulder and
said, “I just remind you of your true feelings towards Ophelia, the woman who has married you for four
years, and be cautious in decision making before you regret it afterward.”
Zachariah seemed calm, while still shot a meaningful glance at Chester and said, “Stay out of my
business, Chester. I know how to handle things right, and I never regret anything in my life.”
“Well, I guess it will be only a waste of time to continue our conversation. Last warning, you will no
longer be the only one to her after you divorce her.”
After bidding farewell to his friends, Zachariah went into his car together with Ophelia, thinking over the
words of Chester with his eyebrows slightly frowned.
Realizing that something was wrong with Zachariah from his looks, Ophelia asked worryingly, “Your
face looks pale since you came back from the restroom, Mr. Chambers. Are you feeling sick? Should
we go to the hospital?”
Zachariah looked at her with his head half-tilted, and asked in return, “Have you ever associated with
Chester before?”
“What? No! Of course not. Why do you say that?” said Ophelia in wondering.
Zachariah revved up the engine in silence and pull the car onto the road. After driving for a while, he
finally said, “Keep away from Chester from now on. Though we are only couple in name, it doesn't
mean that you could go out and dally with other men.”
Such words really ignited Ophelia, and her face flushed with anger. She let out a bitter laugh
uncontrollably and asked, “Are you serious? Dallying with other men out there? What kind of woman do
you think I really am? It was you who took me out to meet your friends, and now it is also you who
seems unpleasant, seeing me talking and associating with them. What's wrong with you, Mr.
Chambers? Don't tell me that you are being jealous.”
“In a word, mind your behavior and do what you should do as a wife, Ophelia.” Zachariah sneered.
“Well, just look what happened to our dear Mr. Chambers.” Ophelia seemed turned into a good mood
and said, “Don't you remember that it's my character of being not so conservative that attracted you in
the first place, Mr. Chambers?”
Zachariah shot a cold glance at Ophelia, but said nothing in response.
His sudden change of mood had really confused Ophelia. Then she got close to Zachariah, stroked his
face tenderly and asked, “I'm serious, what happened, Mr. Chambers?”
Zachariah was still focusing on his driving.
“Hey, tell me something! I want to know what makes you so angry.” Ophelia pushed herself closer to
Zachariah, with her body almost pressed on him.
“Sit still!”
Ophelia wrapped Zachariah's neck with her arms and continued, “Mr. Chambers, don’t be angry with
me. You look so serious now, and I am scared.”
Suddenly, Zachariah glanced at her and pulled over the car. Soon, he pinched Ophelia's chin forcefully,
and said, “Now, I'm wondering what's in your mind, Ophelia!”
His pinch was so forceful that Ophelia almost cried out for pain. However, she stared at Zachariah
flatteringly and said with a smile, “I'm just wondering what you are thinking. You are really making me
embarrassed since you neither tell me anything about your anger nor stop being angry with
me.”
“Hey, tell me something! | want to know what makes you so angry.” Ophelia pushed herself closer to
