Zachariah frowned and was obviously angry.

Then Cora immediately added in a softer tone, "I don't mean to get you angry, Zach! I'm just caring about you too much: indeed, I shouldn't have gone abroad selfishly years ago, but why couldn't you just wait for my return? Hearing that you were married, I felt badly hurt inside, and couldn't stop asking myself whether you gonna leave me forever. That's why I'm being hysterical for the moment."

Upon hearing her confession, Zachariah embraced her tenderly into his arms and comforted her in a warm tone, "Just stop thinking around and get yourself prepared for the piano concert. I will divorce Ophelia once you finish all your duties in Europe and come back home."

"Promise me, Zach. Don't let me down." said Cora.

"You have my words, my love. And I shall never let you down." answered Zachariah.

A joyful and happy smile then finally spread on Cora's face. However, a sudden phone ring broke into their romantic atmosphere.

Someone was calling Cora. As she saw the number shown on the screen, her face turned stiff and somber.

Zachariah noticed the change in Cora's face and asked, "Who's that?"

As a sense of panic flashed through her eyes, Cora clenched her phone even more tightly. Zachariah stepped forwards aggressively and continued, "What is wrong?"

"Nothing! It's the head of our group. He's probably calling me back to rehearsal for the concert. It brings me stress since I'm not ready to leave you now." Cora made an excuse for her panic.
