Chapter 408 Shocking News
Tears suddenly welled up in her eyes. She buried her head into her arms, crying in low voice.
Seeing that, Tassach felt like seeing something. But he held it back and sat still quietly regardless of
the weird look of all those passers-by, who mistook Cora as his girlfriend and used him of his
coldness.
Cora kept on crying. However, Tassach still remained unmoved. Soon, the sense of awkwardness
overwhelmed her tears. So she stopped.
She cast a glimpse at him, looking annoyed while sobbing, “Tassach, don’t you think a gentleman
should say something tofort a cryingdy even if she isn’t your girlfriend? Don’t you feel sorry
while just watching me crying so sadly?”
Tassach postured, “Miss Fletcher, let’s make it clear. First, you are not friends. Second, I am a neat
freak so I disdain those who y dirty. And third, you start to cry out of no reason. What’s wrong with
you? Crying out of nothing only makes yourself look unreasonably troublesome.”
Cora sneered, “Huh, Mr. Conduibh, I know how much you are infatuated with Ophelia and how many
times you have im that you love her. But do you know she almost got killed in a car crash a few days
ago?”
Tassach was stunned with his eyes wide open. He grabbed her top and shouted, “What did you say?
When did it happen? How is she going now?”
Coraughed louder, looking mocking.
“You im you love her, huh? Why don’t you even know about that? The doctor even issued a notice of
her critical condition after the car crash, saying that she wouldn’t make it in three days. But you, the
one who ims to value her, even knew nothing about that. I can’t imagine what if Ophelia knows
about your coldness. How pathetic!”
Tassach was now burning with anxiety. But he was aware that he couldn’t get any information about
Ophelia from Cora. So he stood up and hurried to rush away.
Cora still mocked from behind, “You said you loved her but you know nothing about it when she was in
danger! Your love is worth nothing but bullshit!”
While shouting, she shed tears again.
Zachariah had also promised to love her for a lifetime. However, when the danger raided, he turned a
blind eye to her. His love for her was so skimpy that he chose to flinch back when facing a negligible
obstacle.
Cora still wanted to convince herself that Zachariah still deeply loved her. However, his great care
about Ophelia and his coldness to her were both a reminder of her, telling her that his love for her had
ceased five years ago.
However, Cora was still so obsessed with Zachariah that she lost herself in it. No matter how hard it
would be, she had made up her mind—she had to win his heart at all cost. For her, the love no more
mattered, it was a war dered between Ophelia and her.
While Tassach was rushing away, he reached into his pocket to take his phone. But he suddenly
noticed that he didn’t bring his phone because he didn’t want to be disturbed. So he stopped a girl who
passed by and requested, “Miss, may I have your phone to make a call?”
The girl was a bit angry when being stopped. However, Tassach’s charming face soon extinguished her
anger. She took out her phone from her saddle, looking intoxicated.
Tassach took it over without saying thanks.
He called Ophelia but it was Madeleine who answered it.
“Madeleine, it’s me. I heard that a car crash happened to Ophelia. How is she going now? What about
the baby? Is the baby alright? Tell me which hospital! Tell me! Hurry!”
Tassach was so anxious that his palms got wet by sweat. But Madeleine asked, “Who are you?”
Actually, Madeleine was too busy being bothered by all kinds of trifles recently. Besides, it had been a
long time since Tassach contacted Opheliast time. So she found it hard to tell who it was.
But for Tassach, he deemed it a punishment for his disappearance while Ophelia was in danger. So
Madeleine pretended to talk to a stranger.
He took a deep breath to calm himself down.
“Madeleine, it’s me, Tassach. How is she going now? Tell me which hospital.”
“Oh, it’s you, jinx!” Madeleine suddenly realized, “Sorry, I didn’t recognize your voice. By the way,
what’s going on with this number?”
Tassach was so anxious. But he still replied with patience, “Madeleine, forget about the number. Just
tell me where is Ophelia.”
“She is in People''s Hospital at Downtown. Don’t you know?”

“Which room?”
Madeleine then told him about it.
Tassach hurried to hang up.
“Miss, thank you.” He returned the phone to the girl, who still fixed her eyes on him with great
infatuation. Then he rushed into the building as fast as he could and got into the elevator.
As soon as he stepped out, he rushed to the Ophelia’s ward.
But he felt like flinching while standing outside the ward.
He hesitated for long. He didn’t collect himself until a man’s voice sounded from behind.
“Tassach, what are you doing here?”
He turned around and saw it was Zachariah. He looked a bit awkward. He cleared his voice, “I heard a
car crash happened to Ophelia. So I am here to see if she’s alright.”
Zachariah opened the door, “Come in.”
He followed in and saw Ophelia on the bed. He felt like dreaming ever since he met her a month ago.
While in the hospital, Tassach also fancied making a call to her. But he retreated every time he held the
phone.
He was worried if Ophelia would refuse to answer. What was worse, Gracie had been clinging to him
recently. No matter how many harsh words she had been through, she still insisted to stay. He felt like
he could only get away from her while in the bathroom.
Now Gracie still haunted around him. She seemed to be determined to drop her own self-esteem so as
to stay by his side regardless of his harsh words. He could do nothing about it but to hide.
Tassach nkly stared at Ophelia, trying to make up for his sentiment of missing during these days.
