Madam and old master and guests are waiting for you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zachariah nodded. Ophelia got in and found the guests were Cora and her parents.<\/p>\n<p>Cora was glad to see Zachariah. However, after noticing Ophelia beside him, her smile suddenly froze.<\/p>\n<p>Helena, on the other hand, thought they were friends and were delighted to see Zachariah and Ophelia. She waved her hands at Ophelia and said, \u201cCome here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ophelia walked toward her with a smile. Helena had always treated her nicely, as if she was her biological daughter. However, Mr. Steffan Chambers just regarded her as the wife of his son. After all, she didn\u2019t have an outstanding family background.<\/p>\n<p>At the beginning, Steffan wanted Cora to be his daughter-in-law. However, it turned out that she went aboard and broke his son\u2019s heart. It was lucky that with her family\u2019s apology as well as Zachariah\u2019s self-persuasion, the two families finally got along well.<\/p>\n<p>Helena grabbed Ophelia\u2019s hands and said, \u201cShe is my daughter in law. I suppose you haven\u2019t seen her yet, due to our conflict four years ago. She\u2019s really a good girl. She\u2019s kind and treats us nicely. I like her so much. She makes my day not so boring compared with old days. My husband and son are busy with work and Savannah likes to participate in all kinds of party. It is only she who has time to accompany me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A sense of uneasiness passed over Mr. Bradwen Fletcher and Mrs. Gwylan Fletcher\u2019s face.<\/p>\n<p>Gwylan forced a smile and said, \u201cIt\u2019s wonderful that Zachariah finally gets a wife. However, I think she\u2019s really familiar to me. She looks like\u2026do you know who she is?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bradwen replied, \u201cIt strikes me that she looks really like Cora.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cora sat beside them gently. She was the aggregation of all merits like a lady. She was tender, beautiful, and generous.<\/p>\n<p>It was not strange for Zachariah to love her, as she was such a perfect woman.<\/p>\n<p>Ophelia looked at Zachariah, whose eyes were glued on Cora, and felt disappointed. No matter how hard she tried, she was always a substitute.<\/p>\n<p>Now that the true love returned, naturally, nobody would like a substitute.<\/p>\n<p>Helena also noticed Zachariah\u2019s behaviour. She coughed several times to remind him, \u201cZachariah, you don\u2019t have to wear suit once you return home. You can go upstairs and change into casual clothes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Helena replied with a smile, \u201cI really like you. What happened between you and Zachariah doesn\u2019t bother me anymore. I just wish you to be happy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cora smiled gently, \u201cAuntie Helena, I have been aboard for four years and remained single. I return this time, just to see Zachariah, and participate in concert held at home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Helena also smiled and asked, \u201cWill you go back again?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cora nodded and replied, \u201cYes, in a few days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Helena continued, \u201cYou are a well-known pianist in the musical industry. It\u2019s a great achievement for you. It\u2019s also time for you to consider marriage. It\u2019s good for you to have somebody accompany you and stand by your side.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cora smiled and answered, \u201cI know Zachariah is the best man in the world after I went aboard. Now I want to get him back, but he is married.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After finishing her words, she realized that it was impolite and apologized to Ophelia in a hurry, \u201cNever mind. I don\u2019t mean anything. I just want to share my true feeling with you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, what Ophelia said really stroke Cora.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-916","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/916","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=916"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
