Chapter 286
\nBillionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 286<\/p>\n
Ophelia kept her voice down on the other end of the line. “I\u2019m still in the hospital. Tassach is being operated on. How\u2019s Miss Fletcher going?”<\/p>\n
“She just fell asleep.”<\/p>\n
“You are not in her ward?”<\/p>\n
“No, I\u2019m sitting on the bench in the corridor.”<\/p>\n
“It\u2019s getting late. Go home and have a good rest. I\u2019ll go back with Madeleine in a while.”<\/p>\n
“OK.”<\/p>\n
The couple was talking over the phone in the same hospital, having an intimate conversation that they had never had while being together, and the air was filled with warmth and love. Neither of them wanted to hang up first, despite them parting just a while ago. Admittedly, this rosy moment could definitely be ranked as the most beautiful memory of both people.<\/p>\n
While the two were still enjoying the love vibes, Madeleine snatched Ophelia\u2019s phone and chimed in, “President Chambers, go back to look after Cora Fletcher. Could you please lend Ophelia to me for a while? When you have time, I\u2019ll return your woman to you.”<\/p>\n
Hardly had Madeleine finished her words than she hung up.<\/p>\n
Staring at Ophelia, Madeleine scoffed after she hung up, “Honey, stop smiling like that, or people will take you for an idiot.”<\/p>\n
Ophelia covered her cheeks with her hands, her ears burning.<\/p>\n
Madeleine couldn\u2019t help but sigh watching her. This silly woman was sliding into the abyss. Of course, Madeleine was glad to see her being so happy, but also afraid that the worst scenario would happen, which was, Zachariah divorced her. She dreaded to think what would happen to Ophelia if he did so.<\/p>\n
Ophelia was a stunning woman who appeared tough, but in fact, she was a fragile and sentimental girl.<\/p>\n
“Honey, do you know what you look like now?” Madeleine asked as she was playing with her phone.<\/p>\n
Ophelia wondered, “What?”<\/p>\n
“A girl who has a huge crush on some boy. It\u2019s been five years since you married your hubby, and I thought you were long past that phase. It took a little too long for you to finally look the part, don\u2019t you think? It\u2019s not like you got married yesterday, and your baby is coming soon,” Madeleine teased.<\/p>\n
Ophelia put down her hands, but was still immersed in love.<\/p>\n
“Madeleine, stop laughing at me,” said Ophelia.<\/p>\n
Madeleine put on a solemn face and said in earnest, “Honey, you have to protect yourself. It\u2019s not that I\u2019m throwing a wet blanket on you, but you have to stop being obsessed. Unless Zachariah makes a promise to you, you have to keep a clear mind and can\u2019t get lost in this relationship, so that you can at least quit without difficulty when the worst scenario happens.”<\/p>\n
The smile on Ophelia\u2019s face faded a little, and Madeleine was heartbroken to see that.<\/p>\n
“There\u2019s no need to get too defensive about the Conduibhs. After all, they are much nicer to us than they were five years ago. I don\u2019t ask for much now. As long as my baby will be born safe and sound, and my marriage stays stable, I don\u2019t care about what others think,” replied Ophelia.<\/p>\n
Madeleine raised her eyebrows slightly and sighed, “Honey, you indeed have a big heart. Were I you, I wouldn\u2019t be able to take the high road.”<\/p>\n
“I\u2019m not taking the high road either. It\u2019s just that I don\u2019t want to waste my energy on some irrelevant people. It\u2019ll be my loss if I take them seriously.” Ophelia seemed to have seen through everything.<\/p>\n
Madeleine admired Ophelia\u2019s magnanimity.<\/p>\n
“Honey, I\u2019m impressed. Well, you\u2019re the one involved, and you don\u2019t mind it at all, so what can I say? After all, I\u2019m just an outsider. But don\u2019t expect me to smile at the Conduibhs. I\u2019m generous enough not to give them a good beating, and I\u2019m still fuming when thinking about how they treated us in the past.”<\/p>\n
“They are nothing but a bunch of irrelevant people. Come on. Calm down. You\u2019ll get wrinkles if you keep sulking like that,” teased Ophelia.<\/p>\n
Only then did Madeleine grin, while Ophelia also heaved a sigh of relief.<\/p>\n
Tassach\u2019s operation wasn\u2019t over until 1 a.m., and it was indeed a major surgery. When the light of the operating room went out, the surgeons came out, exhausted.<\/p>\n
Mrs. Conduibh rushed up to them and grabbed one of the surgeons\u2019 hands, asking, “Mr. Campbell, how\u2019s my son?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1160","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1160","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=1160"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
