Chapter 437 The Lauren Family
Zachariah brought the peeled apples out and asked curiously, “Mom, what did Ophelia say? You’re laughing so happily.”
Mrs. Chambers covered her mouth and replied, “Just some jokes. Well, Zach, did you arrange Ted to protect Ophelia?”
Zachariah nodded.
Mrs. Chambers agreed with his decision and remarked, “You’re doing the right thing. I was being inconsiderate. Ted is a solid and stable person who has spent many years with you. He’s also first- class in terms of facing emergency. I am relieved when he is by Ophelia’s side.”
Zachariah picked each Mrs. Chambers and Ophelia a slice of apple and changed another topic, asking, “Mom, how’s your body? Dad said you can leave the hospital with a good rest, but why are you still in hospital after half a month?”
“It’s just some tiny problems. Mr. Kenelm told me I could leave after a few days. He and your dad just worried I have to take a good rest since I am in my senior age. I cannot get too moody, otherwise, my heart will be overload.” Mrs. Chambers showed a shallow smile and didn’t seem to take it seriously.
Ophelia heard her words and remarked in a regretful way, “Mom, I am sorry. I was too spoiled.”
“You are not to blame. It’s my weak body’s fault. My life is so peaceful that I can’t even take a little simulation. Well, I am getting old and I have to accept the reality.”
Mrs. Chambers teased. After a while, she continued, “Zach, can you go with your dad to ask Mr. Kenelm if I can leave the hospital? It’s really boring to spend days in the hospital. Lots of familiar and distant relatives come to visit me. If your dad reminds them that no one can come, my ward will be occupied by lots of people.”

Zachariah and Mr. Chambers left the ward. On their way, Zachariah did a simple report to Mr. Chambers about the leak. He remarked, “Dad, I have arranged people to investigate this leak. It turns out our opposing counterpart, XS company, is to blame. I tried to look for their information, but its relative is too limited. I have asked people to investigate this company and found it was the Lauran family’s registered company in China.”
“The Lauren family?” Mr. Chambers suddenly showed a serious look. He had heard about this family and knew it was an aristocratic family aboard. They business concerned with lots of areas, including cosmetics, papermaking, entertainment, movies and electronic devices. They had subsidiaries in many countries, but rare in Chine. Did their attack this time show their intent to enter the Chinese market?
Mr. Chambers had to take this thing seriously this time.
The Chambers Group was the boss in this city. Although XS company developed well in these eyes, there was a saying that “The strangers can’t compete with the local”. Even the Lauren family owned a great fortune and tried to enter the market. They still had a weak foundation and couldn’t compete with the local companies who had run in the city for a long time. The best way for XS company to be well- known was to cooperate with the Chambers Group instead of attacking them. That was because once the Chambers Group got their weakness and fought back, it would be a fatal strike for XS company. Even the Lauran family was wealthy, they were in a disadvantageous position when compared with local companies like the Chambers Group.
“Have you figured out why would this company initiate an attack to us? We nearly have no cooperation with them in terms of benefit. It won’t try to offend us out of no reason.” Mr. Chambers frowned and analyzed.
“June is the young master in the Lauren family. “Zachariah noted, “Cora used to be his girlfriend back in time when she was in Europe. She broke up with him after she came back, but June followed her to China.”
Mr. Chambers glanced at him and found Zachariah was saying these words with a calm expression. He tried to make a tentative guess, asking, “Do you mean he is taking a revenge on you because of Cora?”
Zachariah nodded and replied, “This might be the reason.”
Mr. Chambers’ frown got tighter and remarked, “If the man called June would do such an impulsive thing just for a woman, there is no need for us to be afraid of him. He will ruin the Lauren family with his self-wiled and impulsive behaviour.”
Zachariah shook his head and replied, “Dad, I don’t think so. My instinct tells me that he is simply sounding out by testing whether the Chambers family is as powerful as other people said. However, what he did really provided me with the chance to know about him. I have already arranged people to collect all the information concerned with XS company and they will learn a lesson within a short time. I will make them understand the Chambers Group is competent enough to be the boss in this city.”
Mr. Chambers petted his shoulder proudly and remarked, “Zach, you really have grown up. You can face all these things without me. I have never doubted about your ability. However, I used to have blind eyes ago for regarding Cora as the one who suited you perfectly. Now it turns out that Cora is not as innocent as she seems to be. I used to think she is obedient and tactful, besides, her family and us really have a good relation for years, I have never expected that she would do such thing in these five years. She is the only one I turned blind eyes to. In terms of telling people’s nature, your mother is mother better than me.”
Zachariah didn’t reply.
Mr. Chambers petted his shoulder and finally admitted, “I was biased ago and didn’t like Ophelia. Now she has brought a baby to our family. I find you treat her whole-heartly and she treats the elder really well. Well, you have to treat her nicely and stop hanging between she and Cora. No everyone can meet his true love and you will definitely be regretful if you lose her. I am still waiting for you to have a second child.”
Zachariah’s lips couldn’t stop curling up and seemed to be in a good mood.
They went to Mr. Kenelm’s office together and Mr. Kenelm was still enthusiastic when seeing they come.
Mr. Kenelm raised his hand to pet on Zachariah’s arms and said, “I have heard from your father that something happens to the company these days and you went to Pairs. You must be busy these days. Have you handled with the company’s stuff?”
Zachariah nodded and replied, “Thank you for your concern. I am busy these days but it is lucky that the result is satisfactory.”
“That’s good. Sit down.” Mr. Kenelm pointed at the sofa and noted.
