Chapter 512 Getting Beaten

Zachariah strode forward and slapped on both Savannah’s right and left cheeks.

Savannah got dizzy because of her brother’s slap.

Mrs. Chambers hurriedly noted, “Zach, what are you doing? Why can’t you talk with her nicely?”

Zachariah showed a cold expression and replied, “Mom, I am only helping you to give her a lesson. I
will teach her what is the best way to show respect if she can’t behave herself.”

Savannah covered her swollen face and asked with a sarcastic smile, “Brother, why can’t I express my
true feeling for your misbehavior? Did I have sex with Cora? Was I caught by Ophelia on the spot? You
have the nerve to cheat on her and I am only speaking out the truth. Have I done anything wrong? Do
you think it’s right for you to beat me because you’re angry? Mom always tells me you’re a responsible
man, but I don’t think so. You have the problem that all men share. Your love doesn’t last long. Do you
care my harsh words after dating two partners at the same time?”

Zachariah clenched his fists tightly.

Mrs. Chambers worried Savannah’s mean words would instigate their conflict.

She scolded, “Savannah, enough.”

Savannah shrugged and replied, “Mom, I don’t want to say anything more. You have seen that brother
really cheated on Ophelia this time. He should show his position to Cora, otherwise, the Fletcher family
won’t let him go easily.”

Mrs. Chambers’ expression was not so good.

She asked, “Zach, what’s your opinion?”



“Mom, nothing happens between me and Cora. What happened last night was simply a
misunderstanding. I will figure it out in person.” Zachariah compressed his lips and replied.

“Brother, you already have sex with her. How can you continue defending yourself by saying it’s a
misunderstanding? Are you a real man or not? How can you say such words? Don’t forget it is you who
takes advantage of Cora. Are you trying to make our family completely cut off our relation with the
Fletcher family by showing no responsibility?” Savannah interrupted the conversation again.

Zachariah started at her, while Mrs. Chambers darkened her face and seemed to be buried in thought.

After remaining silence for a long time, Mrs. Chambers finally asked, “Zach, are you having contact
with Cora all the time?”

Zachariah shook his head and replied, “Mom, I have told you it’s a misunderstanding and I will figure it
out by myself. I will go upstairs.”

“You’d better sit down and tall about it. Ophelia must be angry after knowing such thing. You can only
make her recall her past embarrassment by going upstairs to find her. I suggest you to go apart with
each other for a few days and have a talk when you’re calm. Ophelia is an understanding girl. She
loves you no matter how angry she is. With Tommy here, she won’t easily give up your marriage. She
will forgive you if you say some nice words to show that you have realized your mistake.” Mrs.
Chambers remarked.

Zachariah gave out a bitter smile. Mrs. Chambers didn’t know that the girl who could compromise
because of love and child as she expected just decided to get divorce with him this morning.

Zachariah sat on the sofa and supported his forehead with both hands. He used to be a fearless man,
but now he seemed to be decadent. Ophelia’s firm attitude this morning really stroke him.

He had never been so bewildered and frightened.



At that moment, he was afraid of losing Ophelia a lot.

He cared about Ophelia more than everyone’s expectation. Even Ophelia herself didn’t know that
Zachariah loved her profoundly.

Mrs. Chambers also got frustrated when seeing Zachariah’s behaviour. She tried a lot to maintain this
family’s peace, but problems hit them one wave after another and always came by surprise.

“Zach, cheer up, just give Ophelia some time.” Mrs. Chambers tried to comfort him.

Zachariah finally opened his mouth in a husky voice after a long time, “Mom, will Ophelia get divorce
with me?”

Mrs. Chambers was startled at his words. Her eyes changed in lots of ways. Finally, she sighed and
remarked in an elder’s way, “She won’t. She has you and Tommy to care about. Women can tolerate
everything for their children. Besides, I can tell that Ophelia loves you deeply. She won’t abandon you
and Tommy. Don’t worry.”

Well, he still ranked lower than Tommy in Ophelia’s heart.

Zachariah felt complex when thinking of this.

What kind of man would be jealous of his own child?

Cora knew even if she came to the Chambers family’s house and told them she already had sex with
Zachariah, Mrs. Chambers wouldn’t recognize her as the new young madam of the Chambers family.
Moreover, Zachariah didn’t love her anymore. She would only embarrass herself by coming to their
house. However, she was reluctant to be taken advantage of. Therefore, she still made up her mind to
find them trouble and make the whole Chambers family a mess.



The Chambers family wouldn’t get the peaceful life they longed for if she couldn’t win happiness.

Cora encouraged her parents to come with her. However, her family already got afraid of being
shamed. In order to convince them, Cora promised that she would start a relation with June if they
came along with her. She knew her family took highly of June’s family background and decided to use
that as a bargaining chip to make her parents go against the Chambers family.

Eventually, her loving parents gave up in the face of benefit.

Cora decided to go against the whole world if everyone gave her a hard time. She was willing to
sacrifice her body to make men go against the Chambers family for her.

She was willing to be together with June if she could successfully take her revenge on Zachariah.

Not knowing what magic Zachariah got, he had turned her love into hatred and made her desperate to
take her revenge on her after learning that she would never will his heart.

Because she went mad out of love, she pretended to get back together with June. She simply wanted
to see the day came when Zachariah kneeled down in front of her and told her he was wrong.

Therefore, Cora took her parents to come to the Chambers family to blame them. Both of them decided
to go against each other in a serious way and none of them wanted to make a compromise.

Cora still held hope towards Zachariah. She glanced at him. She would immediately give up her hatred
and loved him again if Zachariah could express any caring look. However, Zachariah didn’t even give
her a look in the whole time.

She bit her lips. The hatred in her heart grew. She had the thought that she would make Zachariah hate
her profoundly instead of love because it would still prove that she had a place in his heart.



Mrs. Chambers pretended that she didn’t know anything when seeing the Fletcher family. She asked,
“Bradwen, do you have something to say by bringing Cora here? Are you going to find us trouble
again?”
