Chapter 171
\nBillionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 171<\/p>\n
\u201cTassach, you have to know that the picture has brought a great impact on my family and it largely does harm to my life. As you wish, I had a terrible quarrel with Zachariah and then I fainted because of heavy mood swing. I stayed in the hospital for a whole day. But I don\u2019t want to divorce him! So, I am sorry to tell you that I need to resign my job now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tassach hurried to stop, \u201cOphelia, please don\u2019t. I can promise that there will be no more ambiguous picture in the future! I won\u2019t do anything ambiguous to you anymore. Please, stay in the company. I am willing to be a back-up for you only. I ask for nothing but a mere image in your mind when you are upset.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia replied, looking resignedly, \u201cTassach, don\u2019t do that. I don\u2019t deserve your care. You are such an excellent gentleman and I am sure there are a lot of better girls expecting you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tassach looked at her while speaking, \u201cOphelia, you should know my feelings for you, right?\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia took a few steps back, \u201cTassach, you said that you would not push me, right? Please don\u2019t go back on your words.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t mean to push you. I just want you to stay. And I have promised that I would never bother you when you are still married. All I want is nothing but to stay closer to you to protect you. You can\u2019t even accept such a simple wish of mine?\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia looked at him apologetically, \u201cSorry, my family always ranks first when compared with work. I can\u2019t continue to work.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI won\u2019t agree!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTassach, I am so sorry. But I have to quit my job. I am really honored to work with you during this period of time. I hope we could still have a chance to work together. But unfortunately, I don\u2019t deem it possible recently. And I don\u2019t think a letter of resignation is necessary at this moment. Sorry.\u201d Ophelia bowed to him and then turned around to leave.<\/p>\n
Tassach stopped her by grabbing her hand, begging, \u201cOphelia, please don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia looked at him with apologetic face, \u201cTassach, I am so sorry to fail your request. But I am sure you will still have chance to work together.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMy future has always been unpredictable! Now the only fact is that if you quit your job, I will have no chance to stay close to you. Please, don\u2019t leave me! If you agree to stay, I can fire Gracie.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia continued, \u201cTassach, why don\u2019t you understand that there will still be more jealous troublemakers just like Gracie even if you fire her! I don\u2019t want my marriage to be damaged because of set-up. So I can\u2019t work here!\u201d<\/p>\n
Tassach stared at her, looking sad, \u201cOphelia, you left me without telling me years ago. And now you choose to leave me again because of another man. Have you ever thought about me for a second?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTassach, we are just friends.\u201d Ophelia then added, \u201cI need to go now. Please get back to your work.\u201d<\/p>\n
But Tassach still grabbed her hand hard, looking sorrowful, \u201cOphelia, please don\u2019t do that to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Gracie pushed the door open and stepped inside, looking confident with a red office suit, which even highlighted her nice figure.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Conduibh.\u201d<\/p>\n
But Tassach just stared at her coldly. He stood up and passed by the desk. Then he walked over and suddenly slapped her hard.<\/p>\n
Her face was rendered swollen instantly. She was stunned while covering her own face, looking incredible, \u201cTassach Conduibh, are you crazy? Why do you slap me?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOphelia resigned her job! Are you happy with that?\u201d Tassach huffed angrily.<\/p>\n
\u201cResigned? She really did?\u201d Gracie gritted as well, \u201cBut it has nothing to do with me! Why do you vent out your anger in front of me? Tassach Conduibh, do you still deem yourself a gentleman?\u201d<\/p>\n
Tassach looked overcast, \u201cGracie, I don\u2019t think you fit well in your position anymore. You\u2019d better quit your job.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou want to fire me?\u201d Gracie asked, looking incredible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1045","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1045","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=1045"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
