Ophelia stood up as a gap-filler and said, “Mom, I believe Zachariah will not hurt Savannah. Zachariah
behaviors frankly. Savannah is his sister. Although he is angry with her mistakes, he will not hurt
Savannah behind. If he really wants to give her a lesson, he must have done it, isn’t it.”
Mrs. Chambers took a deep breath and looked at Ophelia, knowing that her own emotions were indeed
a little excited.
“Ophelia, don't think too much. I don’t blame her. I feel uncomfortable when I find that Ophelia is not the
person like the formal one. That is why I feel excited” Mrs. Chambers said.
Ophelia was speechless.
In fact, the way that Mrs. Chambers directly questioned Ophelia made her feel uncomfortable.
Mrs. Chambers believed Zachariah did it in the absence of evidence. Everyone will feel uncomfortable
when mother treat their children not equal.
Mrs. Chambers seemed to value Zachariah and Ophelia, but it was built on the premise of the safety of
Savannah. Mrs. Chambers will give Savannah a lesson if she do much. Mrs. Chambers showed
partiality for her in the big events. It is obvious.
Since Savannah faced some difficulties, Ophelia had shown respect for Mrs. Chambers,but not as
close as before. As long as there was a slight gap between each other, it was not easy to fill the gap
between them.
There was no more talking to each other, and the atmosphere in the ward had cooled a little.
Mrs. Chambers looked at Savannah on the hospital bed. She realized the cold attitude just now hurt
her. But she couldn’t do it to ask the elder to apologize.
So the embarrassing atmosphere remained.
Fortunately, Savannah woke up half an hour later and found herself in the hospital. She felt confused.
Mrs. Chambers asked with concern, “Savannah, are you better? Is there anything else wrong?”
Savannah blinked and asked vaguely, “Mom, what's wrong with me? Why am I in the hospital?”
Mrs. Chambers lovingly asked, “Your wound is infected and has caused a fever. The doctor said that it
will turn to pneumonia if it isn’t treated on time. I’m so worried,why don’t you talk to me earlier?”
After that, Savannah’ first instinct was to see Zachariah. Everyone noticed.
Either Mrs. Chambers or Mr. Chambers was not a fool. Their first instinct was to look at Zachariah.
Savannah didn’t know she was intentional or too nervous, unexpectedly blurted out, “ Mom and dad,
don’t misunderstand eldest brother.”
It's fine if she didn't say that.
Mrs. Chambers’ facial expression changed again and again.
After that, Savannah felt more absent-minded and explained, “I didn't mean that, Mom and Dad. I just
want to say that my injury has nothing to do with my eldest brother.”
Mrs. Chambers sat down and held her hand and said gently, “Savannah, don't be afraid. Your parents
are here and won't let you get hurt. Tell me who did the injury on your body?”
Savannah looked at Zachariah again.
“Mom, I don't know. Don't ask me. When I went to look for my eldest brother yesterday, I was caught on
the road by two men with sacks. I was pulled me to a place that don't even know. So I really can't see
who are those people.They gave me a big lesson and put me back to the town. I called the eldest
brother, and asked him to sent me to go to the hospital. I'm afraid my parents will worry, so I just
determined to let elder brother sent me to go home.Yesterday when I had dinner with the Jenkins
family, I felt very unwell. But I was afraid that mom would worried, so I put up with it. I didn't expect to
have a fever in the night. Sorry for worrying about me, mom.”Savannah said.
Savannah was sensible enough to win other’s sympathy, which made Mrs. Chambers relaxed.
“You are injured. You should have told me earlier. If it gets worse, what can I do.”Mrs. Chambers said.
Mr. Chambers didn’t believe Savannah. But due to Mrs. Chambers’ care, he didn’t say anything more.
He just said, “Helena，you stay here to take care of Savannah. I want to talk with Zachariah.”
Mrs. Chambers had guessed something, but finally nodded.
After they went out, there are only three people, Mrs. Chambers, Savannah, Ophelia. Because
Savannah secretly framed and aimed at Ophelia, Ophelia felt awkward.
Ophelia also simply found an excuse, “Mom, you and Savannah haven't had breakfast all morning. I'll
go down and get you something to eat.”
Mrs. Chambers finally remembered Ophelia as her daughter-in-law, and said, “Ophelia, if you are not
well, I will let the servant bring food.”
“Mom, it's all right. It didn't take me long to get down. It was lunch time since the maid came from the
main house. I will come back soon.” Ophelia said.
Mrs. Chambers knew it. Going down to buy food was just an excuse to leave.
“Be careful. If the food is too heavy, you can call me to take it. Got it?” Mrs. Chambers said with
concern.
Ophelia nodded.
Ophelia nodded.
