Chapter 30 James


    “Zachariah!” There came a male voice with obvious ent.


    Zachariah and Ophelia saw a tall man. Ophelia recognized that he was one of the experts Zachariah


    invited from abroad.


    This man was tall and handsome. He wore a doctor''s uniform and looked abstinent. If he took off his


    uniform, one would believe that he was a professional model.


    “James.” Zachariah walked to the man and greeted him in their unique way.


    “Zachariah, I haven''t seen you for years. You are getting more and more handsome, but you forgot


    your bro. If it wasn''t for your wife, you totally forget about me.” James spoke the localnguage in a


    strange manner, but his expression was sincere.


    Zachariah just kept smiling, and then introduced Ophelia to him, “This is my wife, Ophelia. Thedy you


    saved just now is her best friend.” Then he introduced James to Ophelia, “Ophelia, this is James, my


    ssmate when I was studying abroad.”


    Ophelia stretched out her hand and smiled, “Nice to meet you, James.”


    James was enthusiastic and hugged her, kissing her on both cheeks, and said, “Beautifuldy, are you


    really Zachariah''s wife? What a pity! I wanted to ask for your phone number and invite you for coffee. I


    didn’t expect that you are already taken. There is an old saying that you shouldn’t keep thinking about


    your best friend’s wife. It seems that I am not the lucky guy.”


    Ophelia smiled naturally and gracefully, “Any girl would adore a man like you.”


    James smiled brightly and said, “I rarely return these years. What you said made my heart beat faster.


    Zachariah, let''s go to the bar for a drink.”


    Zachariah lowered his head and looked at Ophelia, and she smiled and said, “Go ahead. I''ll be fine.”


    Zachariah nodded and said, “Okay, I''ll call Jimmy to apany you.”


    “No need, I’m Okay. When Madeleine is better, I will cook some delicious dishes to thank James.”


    James was a born local. Although he didn’t speak the localnguage very well, he still had a good


    understanding of local etiquette and customs.


    “You should go with us. I will ask two nurses to take care your friend. Don''t worry, they would take good


    care of your friend.”


    Ophelia shook her head and said with a smile, “Go ahead, when Madeleine recovers, I will cook for you


    to show my appreciation for your efforts to save her.”


    “Then I am really lucky to get something nice to eat.”


    After Zachariah and James left, Ophelia stood outside the window and looked at Madeleine. It took her


    an hour before she went back to rest.


    A nurse came early the next morning to inform her that Madeleine was awake and was transferred to a


    general ward.


    Ophelia hurried out of her ward with excitement written on her face and walked towards the general


    ward where Madeleine stayed.


    As soon as she entered the ward, she found that Madeleine had opened her eyes, but there was an


    oxygen mask on her face, and she was pale.


    Ophelia walked over with a sense of nostalgia, and said emotionally, “Madeleine, thank god you are


    awake. You really scared me to death.”


    Madeleine couldn''t move, but blinked her eyes at Ophelia, meaning she was okay.


    Ophelia wasughing to tears. After a while, she said, “Madeleine, I''m afraid my baby and me won''t be


    able to live without you. You are our savior, thank you.”


    Madeleine tried to move her hands, but she didn''t have any strength at all. She shook her head gently,


    but Ophelia was worried.


    “Madeleine, don''t move! You have finally woke up, what if you got hurt again?” Ophelia hurriedly


    stopped her.


    Madeleine just looked at her quietly, and Opheliapromised finally, “I said the wrong thing. We are


    family; I shouldn’t say so to make you feel like an outsider.”


    Upon hearing her words, Madeleine blinked happily again.


    Ophelia was amused by her, and the haze buried in her mind dissipated.


    The next day, Zachariah came to the hospital and asked Ophelia out. He said in a cold voice, “I''m going


    to Viskov. The destination of my business trip has changed. When Ie back, we will discuss our


    divorce. As for your friend, there is nothing serious now. I have asked James to take care of her, so


    don’t worry.”

    Hearing his words, Ophelia was somewhat disappointed. She thought Zachariah''s rushing back this


    time meant that their marriage took a turn for the better, but it seemed that she was just too optimistic


    about future.


    However, Zachariah helped save Madeleine, and she shouldn be grateful, so she managed a smile and


    said, “If you are busy, you can leave first. When you arrive at Viskov, just call me to let me know you


    are safe.”


    Zachariah nodded and said, “Then I’ll get go now. Take care.”


    Ophelia nodded and watched Zachariah leaving without turning his head back.


    When Zachariah was out of her sight, Ophelia forced a wry smile, and touched her belly, and said,


    “Baby, your dad insists on divorcing me. It seems that you can only stick to me, and let’s help each


    other in difficulties.”
