Zachariah put his hand under her chin and asked seriously, “Ophelia,are you hiding anything from me?”

Ophelia’s eyes flickered.

Zachariah became much solemn, “Ophelia, you said that we’ve been married and shall be honest with each other. You are not alone now. You can count on me. No matter what happens, I’m here.”

Ophelia hesitated, but for some unknown reason she shook her head eventually.

Zachariah frowned.

Ophelia touched his brows with both hands and said lovingly, “No, never frown. It’s not like you.”

“Well, then, tell me your worries. I’ve told you, I am here.” Zachariah had already had a guess, but he just wanted to hear it from her lips. He wanted her to know that she could rely on him, and whatever happened, he would always be her biggest supporter.

However, her evasive attitude made him feel pretty hurt. She did love him but not open up to him yet.

Ophelia remained silent.

Zachariah became a bit edgy. He didn’t understand what on earth she was worried about. They were married and they could just be frank with each other.

“Tell me, what are you afraid of?” Zachariah asked, holding her by the chin and pressed hard.

His intense questioning even pushed Ophelia back.

“Ophelia, don't be afraid. I’m with you. You only need to tell me and I’ll help you.” Zachariah softened his expression and said.

Ophelia shook her head, begging, “Zachariah, don’t push me please. When the time is right, I will tell you. I feel I’m getting much better now and I don’t need a medical examination.”
