Chapter 397 Tommy Chambers


    Helena chilled herself out and asked the servants to get some nutritious food for Ophelia. Then she


    went to the hospital with Steffan.


    When they entered the ward, Ophelia was still sleeping with Zachariah sitting beside to watch her


    quietly.


    Her heart was stuffed with guilt. She put down the food and stroked Ophelia’s head lovingly. She asked


    softly, “Is she gonna wake up?”


    Zachariah shook his head and replied in a low voice, “She just fell asleep.”


    Helena waved her hand to beckon him over, “Zach, let’s talk outside the ward.”


    Zachariah stood up and followed her out of the door.


    “What’s the matter, mom?” Zachariah seemed to notice what they were going to talk about.


    Helena said seriously while looking at him, “I assume you have known the one who conspired the car


    crash, right?”


    Zachariah nodded.


    Helena said after some consideration, “Zachariah, your sister has paid her price. I have expelled her to


    make her struggle her own life.”


    Zachariah took a look at her. Of course, he knew that was the maximumpromise of his mom.


    “Mom, I won’t do anything to hurt her. But nor will I offer any help even if she is badly in need. I could


    never forgive the one who dared to conspire against my wife and my son. Even if she is my sister.”


    Helena sighed. Indeed, his attitude about Savannah was justified enough. However, she was still


    Savannah’s mother. She could never just stand by while watching her own daughter being destroyed


    even though she hadmitted something heinous.


    “Zach, I know Savannah did the wrong thing this time. I am so mad and disappointed. But after all, no


    one is born to be a saint making no mistake for a lifetime. And so is she. Just deem it a lesson for her.


    She is still young enough to redeem herself. Just do her a favor if you can. Please don’t turn a blind


    eye on her need. Savannah and you are the most important things to me in the world. I don’t wish


    either of you to suffer.”


    Her voice sounded sincere, nearly close to entreating.


    Zachariah stared at her with mixed feelings.


    Helena seemed to be a bit guilty while facing his gaze.


    “Mom, have you ever thought about Ophelia’s feeling when mentioning this request? Have you ever


    thought about your grandson now sleeping in the nursery room? It has been a few days after his birth.


    But she didn’t even have a chance to take a look at him. She couldn’t evenugh because her body


    ached all over. There is still a blood clot pressing against her nerve in her brain, risking her eyesight.


    You imed that you loved her just as if she were your girl. But now you try to convince me to forgive


    the culprit who nned to murder her?”


    Helena fell into silence. Her face was covered with inexpressible pain.


    Both Ophelia and Savannah meant the same precious to Helena. Abandoning either would only make


    her suffer.

    She treated Ophelia just as her own girl, but only Savannah was her daughter by blood. No matter how


    disappointed she imed to be with Savannah, she still tried all means to bail her out.


    After all, it was Helena herself who gave birth to her and brought her up with great care. There was no


    way she would simply dump her own girl.


    Bothered by emotions, Zachariah replied with low voice, “Mom, no matter out of what reasons you


    insisted, I have to make it clear—I won’t forgive Savannah, temporarily. But it will depend on Ophelia


    whether she deserves my help in the future. If she still failed to learn her lesson, I would be sorry to


    dere that I would only favor my wife and son. After all, it will be Ophelia who spends the rest of my


    life together with me. As for my sister, with all due respect, she will still marry someone else and be part


    of the family of others. Of course, she will be biased toward her husband by then. And it’s


    understandable for me. Mom, for that reason, I don’t think I can show no favor to either.”


    Helena fixed her eyes on the door closed. Mixed feelings surged up in her heart all of a sudden,


    jamming and hard to vent all out.


    But after all, he was now facing his mom. Zachariah softened his tone, looking less upromising.


    “Mom, don’t worry about her. She should pay the price because of her own fault. And I don’t intend to


    intervene. By the time she gets married, I will still offer her a great dowry. After all, she is still known as


    the daughter of the Chambers. She deserves something better. And I am sure Ophelia would be kind


    enough to agree with me.” Said Zachariah.


    Helena nodded.


    “Zach, please don’t tell Ophelia that it was Savannah who conspired all these. I don’t wish a greater


    feud between them.”


    Zachariah nodded.


    “Mom, I don’t intend to tell her about it either. I just want her to stay away from the dark.”


    Helena sighed.


    She could tell now a greater prejudice against Savannah had been generated in his mind. Though they


    were once brother and sister with nice kinship, it ended up miserably. There was no doubt that it was a


    retribution for Savannah.


    Then both the mother and son stopped the topic out of acquiescence.


    And no one ever talked about the fact that Savannah was the culprit.


    After the thoughtful care of Zachariah, Ophelia was under quick recovery. After half a month in the


    hospital, she now could start to walk herself around the ward.


    Sitting on the wheelchair, Zachariah took her to the nursery room to see her own son under the


    permission of the nurse.


    Tears welled up in her eyes when she saw the fair face of her son at the first sight.


    Her son looked so adorable with cute face. His brows and nose looked really alike Zachariah’s. His skin


    was fair and tender. She couldn’t help fixing her eyes on him all day long.


    Ophelia reached out her hand and fancying touching him. But she was worried if his skin would be too


    tender to avoid being scratched by her rough palm. She looked at the nurse with puppy eyes.


    The nurse smiled, “Mrs. Chambers, just feel him as you want to. The baby is not that weak as you


    expect. But please don’t touch him too frequently. His skin is still tender.”


    Not until then did she feel relieved. She carefully touched his little cheek. The soft feelings rendered her


    intoxicated.


    “Zach, look! This is our son.” Happiness glimmering in her eyes, “His face is so soft and adorable.”


    Zachariah smoothed her hair and said lovingly, “He really stays quiet today. Perhaps it’s because he


    also learns that his mom hase to see him.”


    Ophelia smiled with her heart stuffed with bliss.


    “What if he could stay awake? I really want to know if his eyes look like yours or mine.” Ophelia said


    casually.


    “I hope he shares the same eyes as yours because you have pretty eyes. I hope his eyes to be glowing


    and watery enough to soften whoever he meets.” Zachariah showed his appreciation about Ophelia


    though indirectly.


    Ophelia responded with a sweet glimpse.


    The nurse couldn’t help chuckling, “Mr. Chambers, you really share a sweet rtionship with your


    wife.”
