Ophelia had talked to Tommy for a long time before she asked the nanny to take care of him. Then the group of people walked out of the baby’s room.

Helena said, "Ophelia, Steffan and Zachariah’s business friends will arrive soon. Since you haven’t fully recovered yet, just have a rest in your room."

Ophelia nodded and replied, "Thank you, Helena."

"Don’t thank me. Tommy is my grandson, and I’ll give him the best thing I have. All you need to do now is get well, and you don’t have to worry about anything else."

Ophelia listened to her obediently. It was when Helena finished speaking that Ophelia asked, "Why isn’t she here?"

Ophelia was referring to Savannah.

Helena paused for a moment and explained, "You know her… She doesn’t like big parties like this. It’s good that she has gone away, so that she won’t say something embarrassing on such an important occasion. I don’t want her to make you angry, considering you aren’t well yet."

Warmth welled up inside Ophelia. Helena was truly kind to Ophelia, and naturally, Ophelia didn’t want Helena and Savannah to drift apart because of her. One always had to make compromises to keep relationships going.

Therefore, Ophelia was willing to make a compromise for the sake of Helena’s kindness to her. She would put up with Savannah’s occasional ridicule. Even if her feelings were hurt a bit, she could stand it.
