After Ophelia left, Mrs. Chambers looked at Savannah and said, “Savannah, tell me the truth, is your
injury caused by your brother?”
Savannah pulled up the covers. Her face visibly was resistant to answering the question.
Mrs. Chambers said, “Savannah, say something. The doctor said that you have many wounds on your
body, and it is very easy to be infected. If it had not been discovered early, you might have been
infected with the wound and caused serious pneumonia, possibly life-threatening. Your parents can
make decisions for you, what on earth do you have to worry about?”
Savannah looked at Mrs. Chambers and thought, “Mom, do you think that I really don’t want to talk it
with you? But what does it matter if I do? What are you and dad gonna do to elder brother for me?
Obviously impossible.”
“Mom, I have already said. I was seized by strangers. You can think that I have made a lot of mistakes,
and some kind people punish me.” Actually, Savannah said that on purpose. She wanted her mom and
dad to blame Ophelia. Because in the home, Ophelia was the only one who conflicted with her. After
all, she once hired someone to hit Ophelia. Regardless of what kind of revenge, normal people would
put the idea to Ophelia.
Just like when the police solve a crime, the first suspect suspects someone who has a history with the
victim.
Mrs. Chambers frowned thoughtfully.
Savannah could not help but add fuel to the fire and said, “Mom, I am not deliberately blame to
someone. Who I have offended is the sister-in-law.”
Savannah hadn’t finished, Mrs. Chambers cut her wors, “Savannah, don’t nonsense disorderly. She is
not that people. She hates you, and that’s for sure. But she will never do that. Don’t misunderstand her.
Your brother will be angry. Our family doesn’t go well recently. And you should take good care of
yourself. Don’t mess it up.”
Savannah felt uncomfortable.
“Mom, I don’t feel good now. You still protect sister-in-law.” Savannah said angrily.
Mrs. Chambers tucked her in and said, “Savannah, I just scolded your brother for you about your
wound infection. Your sister-in-law was also aware of my partiality. Don’t push your luck. That’s a good
lesson. It can teach you a lot. I’m worried about your health. I’m not partial to Ophelia. I believe she
won’t do that.”
Savannah was painful already. After hearing this, she was more painful.
But she had learned something, that is, a wise man submits to circumstances. No one dared to
contradict the lady again. She had offended Zachariah thoroughly. Mrs. Chambers was the most
respected mother for Zachariah. Zachariah dared not do anything to her under the shield of Mrs.
Chambers.
Zachariah was called out. They went to the stairs.
Mr. Chambers looked at Zachariah seriously, and said, “Zachariah, did you hurt Savannah?”
Zachariah was silent unexpectedly. This kind of silence also was indirect default.
Mr. Chambers was calm. He felt a little pain in her heart. Zachariah and Savannah are his son and
daughter. You can’t choose which one to abandon.
“Why? ” Mr. Chambers asked hoarsely.
He had been firmly convinced that Zachariah won’t do anything to Savannah. After all, they were
brother and sister. They kept a good relationship from a very young age.
“Dad, Savannah really crossed the line this time.” Zachariah simply gave an explanation.
Mr. Chamber raised his hand and patted his shoulder, and finally said, “Zachariah, don't be too hard to
your sister. She is the only daughter for me and your mom. If she really had an accident, your mother
couldn’t bear it.”
Zachariah thought for a moment and said, “If she is in her place, I will not deliberately trap her in
dilemma.”
This was Zachariah to the father of the biggest commitment.
Mr. Chamber compromised and nodded.
“Go home. Don’t make your mom think too much.”Mr. Chamber said.
Zachariah replied, “Dad, I want to smoke.”
Mr. Chamber said, “Come back earlier. Don’t smoke too much, and it’s not good for your health.”
Zachariah nodded.
