Zachariah looked serious and was surprisingly silent.

Mr. Kenelm sighed, smoothed his hair, and said, “I didn’t mean to judge you, but you’re so not clever on this. How could you do such a thing? I like Ophelia from the bottom of my heart. Although she does not have a distinguished family, she has a sincere heart, which Cora can never compare with. I thought you would be good to her, but you did such a foolish thing. I really don't know what to say about you.”

Zachariah got his hands clasped together and said, “Mr. Kenelm, I’ll handle it.”

Mr. Kenelm sighed. After all, he had no position to say more, but he did like Ophelia, as an elder. He had seen countless couples and knew that Ophelia was the right woman for Zachariah, sensible, decent, beautiful, and smart. Such a woman can be worthy of Zachariah. As for Cora, she was stunning but capricious and spoiled by her parents, and she probably could never learn how to take care of a man.

“I never meant to judge you, but you shouldn’t have done anything to hurt Ophelia. She’s a good girl. If you do not know how to cherish her, sooner or later you will regret it.”

Zachariah never thought what Mr. Kenelm said would turn out to be a prophecy. After divorcing Ophelia, it was so hard for him to live alone in the apartment filled with Ophelia's memories, and he could only use his busy work to stop himself from missing her.

This was, of course, what would be happening soon.

Mr. Kenelm stood up and walked to him. He patted Zachariah’s shoulder and said, “That will be it. Please be good to Ophelia, she’s your wife, as for Cora, she’s really not right for you.”

Zachariah nodded.
