Chapter 281 Rational Love

Ophelia worryingly said, “Something is off with Zachariah’s voice. I’ll go up and find him first.”

Madeleine grabbed her hand, “What can happen to him. It’s definitely about Cora. How magnanimous
are you? Your husband is in this despairing state due to another woman, yet you still want to comfort
him. I would have made the pair of adulterers bleed to pay for their deeds.”

Ophelia patted her hand and finally said, “I’d better go upstairs and have a look. He wouldn’t display his
fragile side had something not happened.”

Madeleine was completely defeated by the woman in front of her.

“Honey, can’t you do better? Don’t just rush over after a word from that man. You are a human being,
and you have your dignity. You don’t owe him anything. Show me some character, or I will tie you up.”

Ophelia laughed and comforted, “Madeleine, I know you are for my good. I will protect myself. I love
Zachariah, but after all, I haven’t lost my mind. In my heart, love is not everything. I will maintain the
sanity I deserve. Don’t worry.”

Madeleine obviously didn’t believe her.

“If you can stay sane, a sow can climb the tree.”

Ophelia couldn’t laugh or cry. Speaking of which, she was not even as good as a sow.

“Madeleine, I’ll have to stop here, I’ll go up and be down in a bit.”

Madeleine stared in anger.

“You stupid girl. After I said so much, you still insist on going up to find Zachariah. What if he and Cora
are deliberately being lovey-dovey in front of you? Do you know that you are pregnant, a small stimulus



can cause a miscarriage?”

Madeleine scolded.

Ophelia shook her head and said, “He is not such a person.”

Madeleine swallowed the cursing words back into her stomach, and compromised, “I’ll go with you.”

Ophelia shook her head and said, “Madeleine, I can go up by myself. Wait here, I’ll be down soon.”

“I’ll give you an hour. If you’re not done by then, I’ll go up to find you.”

“Okay.”

Ophelia went upstairs alone and found Zachariah at the entrance of the stairs.

The stack of cigarette butts under his feet and the choking smell of smoke in the air had flashed a
surprise in her eyes.

It’s not that she hadn’t seen Zachariah smoke, but he smoked more fiercely than usual.

She felt a pain in her heart and suddenly wanted to cry. She thought, ‘Zachariah, is Cora really that
important to you? So much so, that you uncharacteristically smoke so much in a place like a hospital.’

She had mixed feelings. Her husband, who was so tactless, was due to another woman.

She looked forward to all this, yet she always stood outside the boundaries as an outsider.

When Zachariah saw her, he immediately extinguished the cigarette in his hand, and then pulled her
hand and headed downstairs to avoid the choking smell of smoke.



Ophelia was directly embraced by Zachariah as they stood on the steps before she had time to ask
what happened.

Ophelia struggled uncomfortably.

“Don’t move, let me hug you,” Zachariah whispered.

Ophelia immediately stopped fidgeting and encircled Zachariah’s waist and abdomen slowly and gently
patted him on the back.

“What happened?” Ophelia asked softly.

Zachariah just hugged her even tighter.

Ophelia patted him on the back like a mother, and whispered, “I’m here.”

Zachariah buried his head between her neck, licking and biting, his breathing became heavier and
heavier. Ophelia was taken aback, and she was really afraid that he would mess around if he couldn’t
control it.

Although this was the entrance of the stairs and not many would pass by, but few didn’t mean that
there would be no one. If someone happened to head down and saw such a rated scene, she could
hardly dare to think about it.

Listening to Zachariah’s heavier and heavier breathing, Ophelia was able to stay clear-headed for a
moment.

“President Zachariah, this is a hospital, don’t do this,” Ophelia said with the last trace of sanity.

Zachariah finally took a bite of her lightly before resting on Ophelia’s shoulder and gasped for breath.



Both of them were a little emotional, Ophelia could even clearly feel the change against her thighs and
became embarrassed.

Zachariah buried in her neck, and said in a hoarse and sexy voice, “My wife, I really want to have you
now.”

Ophelia’s face became ruddier.

Zachariah hugged her tighter.

Zachariah said, “My wife, it feels so good to hold you in my arms.”

Ophelia buried herself quietly in his arms and whispered, “President Zachariah, what happened? Why
did you smoke so much?”

“It’s just that I encountered a little trouble, it will be fine soon.” Zachariah did not answer upfront.

Ophelia came out of his arms, raised her eyes, and looked at him seriously, like a virtuous and
affectionate wife, “I am here, no matter what happens to you, I will listen carefully.”

A certain part of Zachariah’s heart softened all of a sudden. It was really difficult to keep him from
watching her.

He raised his hand to touch Ophelia’s cheek, and whispered, “Cora had entered the operating room
again. The doctor said that she may not get pregnant again in the future.”
