Chapter 401 Public Display of Affection
Morgan’s words were methodical, making it hard for people to doubt. Almost a minute later, he hanged up the phone and reported, “Boss, they have agreed to have an appointment at 10am tomorrow at the SL Pavilions in the west suburbs.”
Zachariah nodded and remarked, “Bring more hands tomorrow. You must catch that guy. I would like to know who get the nerve to kidnap my son.”
“Yes, boss.”
Zachariah pointed at the two people on the ground and commanded, “Take them away. Just keep them alive and then you can do whatever you like.”
Morgan and another guard pulled up the two people on the ground and spared their left hands to cover their mouths, avoiding them to let off any sound.
Zachariah stood up and left the office. As for how would those guards handle with the two thieves, it would be up to them.
Zachariah arrived at the infant incubators’ room. The bodyguard noticed his arrival and bowed respectively, greeting, “Boss.”
Zachariah shook his hand and commanded, “Keep guard outside.”
“Yes.”
The safety guard then left the room. Zachariah bent down to observe his son, who was sleeping quietly. His cold expression gradually melted warmly.
He reached out his hand to touch Tommy’s little face gently. Suddenly, he felt he was cured by this little guy.
Zachariah spent almost fifteen minutes inside. His legs got a bit numb because of the squat. He stood up to move around and said, “Son, daddy has to leave now. I will come to see you tomorrow. Have a good rest. Don’t worry. No one can harm you.”
He then left the incubator room and remarked to the guard, “Take care of the young master.”
“Yes, boss.”
Zachariah then went to Ophelia’s ward.
Ophelia opened her eyes as soon as he arrived beside her bed. She called his name in the dark, “Zach?”
“Did I weak you up?”
Zachariah turned around to turn on the light and then went back by her bed. He noticed Ophelia had clear eyes and could tell she had been awake for a long time.
“How long have you got up?” Zachariah sat on the soft chair, grabbed her hand to put on the back of his hand and asked sympathetically.
“I just woke up. I haven’t seen you for a while now. I am a bit worried. Where have you been?” Ophelia looked at him and asked.
“The guard just called and said Tommy didn’t sleep well in the night time. I went to have a check. Don’t worry. Our baby is alright now. You can go to sleep if you want. I am here to accompany you.” Zachariah’s hands covered her eyes and remarked. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Ophelia pulled his hands down. She blinked her eyes and looked at him in a serious way, asking, “Zach, is something going wrong? I notice you don’t look well.”
Zachariah raised up his hand to rub her nose teasingly and tried to change another topic, saying, “Are you trying to take charge after we get back together?”
Ophelia didn’t laugh but still stared at him seriously.
“Zach, you have told me that you will never lie to me again.” Ophelia’s words were soft but firm.
Zachariah got in a happy trouble for having a beautiful but stubborn wife. He was enjoyable in this state when learning Ophelia was worried about him.
“I have never lied to you after we get married. You know I never like to make up lies.” However, if it was good for you, I didn’t mind to tell white lie. Zachariah added the rest of the sentence in his mind.
Ophelia’s tense nerve finally loosened up. She asked, “Is Tommy alright?”
“Don’t worry. He’s fine. Even James said he is healthy like a strong bull.” Zachariah looked solemn and answered in a serious way.
Ophelia got completely amused by his words and laughed out.
“No one will use that metaphor to compare his son.”
Zachariah’s lip curled up and remarked, “Are you relieved now? Go to sleep then.”
Ophelia petted the space beside her and asked, “Zach, how about you lying beside me? I can sleep tight when you keep me company.”
Zachariah stood up, walked to the left side of the bed and lied down. He carefully embraced Ophelia’s waist. Ophelia also responded him by stepping back, making their body go against each other tightly.
“Have a good rest.”
Ophelia nodded and closed her eyes. Soon Zachariah could hear her steady breath as a sign of she had fell asleep.
Zachariah touched her head and also gradually fell asleep.
It was nine and a half in the morning when they woke up the next day.
As soon as Ophelia woke up, she noticed Mrs. Chambers was looking at her kindly. Her mind immediately sobered and greeted her in an awkward manner, “Mom, when did you get there? Why didn’t you wake me up?”
Ophelia wanted to move her body. However, she felt her waist was heavy. She turned around her head and noticed a big arm was embracing around her waist. She was surprised at first and then reminded it was Zachariah’s arm.
Her cheek turned a bit hot because of shyness. Anyone would feel embarrassed when their show of affection was founded by their mother-in-law.
She reached out her hands to push Zachariah.
Zachariah murmured in a sexy way and slowly opened his eyes. He didn’t look anywhere else, but went to kiss on Ophelia’s mouth instinctively.
Ophelia supported his chest with both hands and tried to spare some space between their bodies.
She reminded him, “Zach, mom is here.”
Zachariah sat up and reacted graciously when seeing his mother was here.
He got off the bed and greeted, “Mom, you’re here.”
Mrs. Chambers was glad to see they could get along well.
She remarked, “Hurry up to brush your teeth. I have prepared you breakfast.”
Zachariah nodded and went to help his wife to get up considerately. Mrs. Chambers also went forward to help and said, “Be careful. Don’t hurt your wound.”
Ophelia smiled, “Mom, Zach, I have been rested for half a month. My body is good at recovering. You don’t have to look after me like a little baby. I am alright.”
Mrs. Chambers said, “A saying goes that it will take a hundred days if you hurt your muscles and bones. You have just recovered from bad injury. The doctor says you can’t walk too much. Sometimes it’s good to take extra care.”
Zachariah helped Ophelia to brush teeth and wash face, then he scooped her up in his arms to take her out.
Mrs. Chambers filled her a bowl of porridge and put it in front of her, saying, “I have already blown it cool. Can you eat it by yourself? Do I need to help you?”
Ophelia shook her head and responded, “Mom, I am alright. I can eat it by myself. Let’s have breakfast.”
When Zachariah was tidying himself in the washroom, they were having breakfast happily.
They already finished half of their bowls when Zachariah got out.
“Zach, come to have breakfast.”
Zachariah nodded. However, before he could sit down, his phone suddenly rang. He took out the phone to pick it up.
“Hello?”
Someone’s voice came from the other side of the phone. Suddenly, Zachariah’s expression turned serious and remarked, “I will be there soon.”
After hanging off the phone, he pretended nothing happened and took the spoon to have the porridge.
