Chapter 155
\nBillionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 155<\/p>\n
Mrs. Chambers\u00a0offered a sigh, embraced\u00a0Steffan\u00a0from his back and asked, “How about you just forgive her, for my sake, darling?”<\/p>\n
“Not this time,\u00a0Helena. The reason why I previously accepted her as my daughter in-law was because she had been knowing her place and keeping her nose clean. While things are different now: if those photographs are to be spread among the public, not only will it be a total disgrace for\u00a0our son\u00a0Zachariah, but also a shame on our family!”<\/p>\n
Mrs. Chambers\u00a0sighed again and continued, “You knows that I love her a lot, don’t you, darling? It really hurts to hear something like that from you.”<\/p>\n
Steffan\u00a0turned around, held\u00a0Mrs. Chambers\u00a0in her arms and gently whispered, “Be rational, and don’t get yourself possessed by personal feelings on that,\u00a0Helena.\u00a0Ophelia\u00a0is indeed not the best choice for\u00a0Zachariah, irrespective of her family, educational background\u00a0and capabilities.”<\/p>\n
“But our family is already good enough, isn’t it? I don’t think we really need that sort of gifted and outstanding girl to add brilliance to our family.”<\/p>\n
“But if we want to expand our business abroad, we will have to find\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0a wife whose family is well matched with ours.”<\/p>\n
Complicatedly,\u00a0Mrs. Chambers\u00a0looked at\u00a0Steffan\u00a0and asked, “It sounds like you’re considering our son as a tool to strengthen\u00a0Chambers Group. I tell you: whether\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0is\u00a0really going to divorce\u00a0Ophelia\u00a0or not, I will never allow\u00a0Cora\u00a0to ever step into our family. And if you insist on bringing her in, I will leave!”<\/p>\n
Helplessly,\u00a0Steffan\u00a0held her tighter, “Relax,\u00a0Helena. I’m not saying that\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0must marry\u00a0Cora, since it’s something to be decided by him. However, for one thing,\u00a0Ophelia\u00a0is destined to leave since our family may suffer losses caused by those photographs; for another,\u00a0Corahas\u00a0Zachariah’s kid either, let alone that her family has long been in good relationship with ours.”<\/p>\n
Mrs. Chambers\u00a0pushed him away and said, “It’s still too early to say\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0is the father of the kid in\u00a0Cora’s tummy, and if you still insist to let\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0marry\u00a0Cora, I will leave the family!”<\/p>\n
Steffan\u00a0had no choice but to compromise in front of\u00a0Mrs. Chambers.<\/p>\n
“Relax, and I’m merely saying so,\u00a0Helena. Remember what\u00a0Kenelm\u00a0once told you? Don’t get yourself angry. I’m sorry for my recklessness.”<\/p>\n
Mrs. Chambers\u00a0then calmed down and answered, “I don’t mean to contradict your words. I just sincerely think that\u00a0Cora\u00a0doesn’t deserve to be\u00a0Zachariah’s wife.”<\/p>\n
“I’ll listen to you, dear. Whether he divorces\u00a0Ophelia\u00a0or not, it’s up to\u00a0Zachariah. And if he is really going to divorce\u00a0Ophelia\u00a0and marry\u00a0Cora, you should by then simply accept it, since that you don’t want to see the two kids turn their backs on you either, don’t you, my love?”<\/p>\n
Mrs. Chambers\u00a0sighed without giving any response.<\/p>\n
Down the stairs,\u00a0Savannah\u00a0came to the front of\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0and hastened to ask, “What the hell are you thinking,\u00a0Zachariah? What makes you believe the flirtatious woman is innocent?”<\/p>\n
“Don’t you ever call her that way. She is my wife.”<\/p>\n
“She does not deserve to be your wife! Just look what she has done to you!”<\/p>\n
Zachariah\u00a0then hung off the phone and drove right to\u00a0Cora’s place.<\/p>\n
She was now living in a newly bought apartment with three bedrooms \u2014 a big enough cozy little apartment in a community close to where\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0was living.<\/p>\n
Zachariah\u00a0took the elevator, went upstairs and rang the bell. In a second,\u00a0Cora\u00a0opened the door and jumped into\u00a0Zachariah’s bosom. As her lips were about to touch those of\u00a0Zachariah, it stunned her that\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0dodged her kiss.<\/p>\n
Looking at\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0confusedly, she asked, “What’s wrong,\u00a0Zach?”<\/p>\n
“Let’s go inside before we talk.” In haste,\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0held\u00a0Cora\u00a0in arms perfunctorily, jogged her into the room and closed the door.<\/p>\n
Suddenly,\u00a0Cora\u00a0pressed\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0against the wall, looked at him flirtatiously and said, “It has been days since the last time you came around and visited me,\u00a0Zach. Me and the baby have been missing you so much.”<\/p>\n
Perfunctorily,\u00a0Zachariah\u00a0kissed her and\u00a0tried\u00a0to be patient, “Let’s talk about it later. Where are the photos that you have previously mentioned on the phone?”<\/p>\n
In grievance,\u00a0Cora\u00a0looked at him and asked, “Is that you’re not going to come if I have not mentioned those things? In order to be with you, I’ve given up my career and opportunities abroad. But now I feel that you’re becoming more and more indifferent to me. Tell me,\u00a0Zachariah: do you still love me?”\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1029","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1029","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1029"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
