Before Ophelia could reply, Helena went on, "You may take Tommy away with you, but you have to take him back on weekends, which means, Tommy has to spend Friday to Sunday with me. If you agree, you can divorce Zachariah at any time."

Ophelia stared blankly at Helena, countless thoughts flashing across her mind.

"Mom, you won’t object to it anymore?"

"I don’t see any point in doing so, and you guys will only hate me more. Go ahead with your divorce. Since you’ve already discussed it, it’s unnecessary for me to say anything. I’ll let you guys deal with your own stuff, while I can take a break."

Ophelia dropped her eyes and thought for a while, saying, "Thank you, Helena!" And sorry.

The reason Ophelia didn’t say "sorry" was because she actually couldn’t agree to Helena’s term. She intended to leave this city once she signed the divorce settlement, and then find a small and quiet place to settle down, trying her best not to be found by the Chambers family.

Ophelia felt guilty about leaving this place, but the thing she felt guiltiest about was Tommy cutting all ties with the Chambers family due to her selfishness. Tommy was still a baby, but he wouldn’t see his father from now on. In fact, Ophelia wasn’t sure about her decision.

Helena waved her hand and said, "I don’t need you to thank me. Your life will change after divorce, and you have to take good care of yourself and Tommy. Especially Tommy, you must make sure he’ll live a good life, or I’d get him back."

"Rest assured, Helena. I’ll take good care of Tommy and never make you worry," Ophelia promised as she looked into Helena’s eyes.

Hearing that, Helena nodded.
