Zachariah felt helpless and he pulled James, “James, you check Ophelia first.”
James checked Ophelia, “She is much better now and she can go back home half month later if she
has no complications.”
Zachariah took a relief of sigh.
Mrs. Chambers said, “James, is really Ophelia better now?”
James smiled, “I do well in medicine and you can trust me.”
“I surely trust you.”
James went back to the topic, “Mrs. Chambers, you really plan to introduce your nominal daughter to
me?”
Before Mrs. Chambers gave a reply, James was hit on his butt by Zachariah.
James staggered and Mrs. Chambers supported him, “Zachariah, what are you doing?”
Zachariah felt so helpless, “Mom, he likes kidding and you don’t have to play along. He has a lot of
women around him. You will be nagged by Ophelia if you want to be the matchmaker.”
James raised hands and said reluctantly, “Zachariah, you are my friend and I am sincere to find a
Chinese woman to be my wife. I will break up with you if you keep doing that.”
Mrs. Chambers cannot help but laugh. “Well, I am just kidding.”
James crunched in front of her, “I am serious and I think Madeleine is really a good woman. She is a
beauty and I like her disposition. Please introduce her to me.”
Mrs. Chambers was surprised, “You are serious?”
James immediately wore a serious look.
Mrs. Chambers said nothing. She just now was kidding.
So when Madeleine Lowe came in, she keenly felt that the atmosphere was weird. Especially when
James’s eyes fell on her, either by accident or design, she could not help but get goose bumps.
She glared at James angrily. With Mrs. Chambers here, she had to constrain herself. So she pretended
not to see James' eyes on her and said hello to him very politely, “Mrs. and Mr. Chambers, did have a
good sleep yesterday?”
Mrs. Chambers pulled her hand and said with a smile, “I have told you that I want you to be my nominal
daughter, so call me mom. Besides, you and Ophelia are good friends and we are family in the future.”
Madeleine was a little uneasy. Just one night later, why did everyone's attitude seemed to have
changed?
Madeleine gave an unnatural smile and changed the subject, “Mrs. Chambers, how is Ophelia? Is she
awake?”
Mrs. Chambers laughed, “Don't worry. Zachariah said she woke up once this morning, but she was too
weak to say a word and fell asleep again.”
Madeleine took a sigh of relief.
Madeleine approached the bed and looked carefully at Ophelia. She looked very pale and obviously
lost weight a lot.
She felt so sorry, saying, “Ophelia had lost a lot of weight.”
Mrs. Chambers nodded and said, “Yes, I will build up her health after she leaves the hospital. You also
have lost weight, and I ask Mrs. Miriam to make chicken soup for you. You have given Ophelia blood
transfusion, and haven’t got a good sleep. You look pale, too. I ask James to take you to have a nice
meal?”
Madeleine felt weird as she had the illusion that Mrs. Chambers tried to deliberately fix me up with
James.
“Thanks, Mrs. Chambers, but have had some food just now.” Madeleine made an excuse.
James stepped forward with a keen eye.
“Beauty, come on and allow me.” James made a very gentlemanly gesture.
Madeleine felt a little awkward.
At the exact time, a weak voice rang, “Mom, Madeleine, you're all here.”
Madeleine looked over at Ophelia and said with great joy, “Ophelia, you wake up.”
Squatting beside the hospital bed, Madeleine stared at Ophelia alive in front of her and she was so
excited.
“Sweetie, you scared me to death. You had entered the operation room several times, I’m so afraid you
will never wake up.” Madeleine said, bursting into tears: “Sweetie, you scared, you scared so much.”
Madeleine was so excited that she repeated the words.
Ophelia raised her hand with difficulty, patting Madeleine on her head and said, “Don't cry.”
Madeleine wiped the tears, laughing and crying and she looked embarrassed.
Madeleine said, “Sweetie, I am ugly now, right?”
Ophelia shook head and said, “No, you are very beautiful in spite of your running makeup, and you are
the most beautiful woman in my heart”
Madeleine couldn't help laughing.
Mrs. Chambers also reached over to the bed and took Ophelia's hand.
“Ophelia.” Cried Mrs. Chambers with emotion.
Ophelia smiled and said in an apologetic tone, “Mom, I'm sorry to keep you worried.”
Mrs. Chambers held her hand and shook head. “I'm glad you wake up and I'm really worried about you
while seeing you into the operation room. You don’t scare me like that again, and I will have a heart
attack if I see you bleeding again.”
Ophelia felt more apologetic, “Mom, I'm sorry.”
“Silly girl.” said Mrs. Chambers, “Don't say sorry, what I want is you are well.”
