Chapter 474
\nBillionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 474<\/p>\n
Zachariah put his hand under her chin and asked seriously, \u201cOphelia\uff0care you hiding anything from me?\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia\u2019s eyes flickered.<\/p>\n
Zachariah became much solemn, \u201cOphelia, you said that we\u2019ve been married and shall be honest with each other. You are not alone now. You can count on me. No matter what happens, I\u2019m here.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia hesitated, but for some unknown reason she shook her head eventually.<\/p>\n
Zachariah frowned.<\/p>\n
Ophelia touched his brows with both hands and said lovingly, \u201cNo, never frown. It\u2019s not like you.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, then, tell me your worries. I\u2019ve told you, I am here.\u201d Zachariah had already had a guess, but he just wanted to hear it from her lips. He wanted her to know that she could rely on him, and whatever happened, he would always be her biggest supporter.<\/p>\n
However, her evasive attitude made him feel pretty hurt. She did love him but not open up to him yet.<\/p>\n
Ophelia remained silent.<\/p>\n
Zachariah became a bit edgy. He didn\u2019t understand what on earth she was worried about. They were married and they could just be frank with each other.<\/p>\n
\u201cTell me, what are you afraid of?\u201d Zachariah asked, holding her by the chin and pressed hard.<\/p>\n
His intense questioning even pushed Ophelia back.<\/p>\n
\u201cOphelia, don’t be afraid. I\u2019m with you. You only need to tell me and I\u2019ll help you.\u201d Zachariah softened his expression and said.<\/p>\n
Ophelia shook her head, begging, \u201cZachariah, don\u2019t push me please. When the time is right, I will tell you. I feel I\u2019m getting much better now and I don\u2019t need a medical examination.\u201d<\/p>\n
Although still frowning, Zachariah had to compromise finally.<\/p>\n
Madeleine soon arrived. When seeing Zachariah, she asked bluntly, \u201cMr. Chambers, I\u2019ve heard your young sister is in hospital. How is she? I hope a little pain can make her learn her place.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zachariah looked calm. But Ophelia feared Madeleine might be out of line and offended him, so she hurriedly stopped her, \u201cMadeleine, don\u2019t say that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Madeleine shrugged and said, \u201cDarling, I\u2019m just so happy. Considering what she did to you, I\u2019m rather merciful not to twist the knife in her back and curse her to die, aren\u2019t I? \u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia threw a despondent glare at her. She didn\u2019t want to dispute about such things.<\/p>\n
Zachariah had never got along with Madeleine. But this time, he said unexpectedly, \u201cSavannah does need a hard lesson.\u201d<\/p>\n
Madeleine cast a strange glance at him, \u201cMr. Chambers, are we reaching a consensus?\u201d<\/p>\n
He did not respond.<\/p>\n
Madeleine curled her lips and cared nothing about this cold fish.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, darling, can we go now?\u201d she asked Ophelia.<\/p>\n
Ophelia darted a look at Zachariah.<\/p>\n
He held her around the waist possessively and talked to her, \u201cI’ve told James to come and check on your health tomorrow. If he says you are recovering quite well, then I won\u2019t force you to take the physical examination any longer.\u201d He behaved dominantly as if to let Madeleine know on purpose.<\/p>\n
Ophelia breathed a silent sigh of frustration. She knew the checkup was probably meant for her eyes.<\/p>\n
Madeleine could hardly bear it.<\/p>\n
As a beholder, she clearly perceived that the couple got into a quarrel.<\/p>\n
They were at an impasse. But after a while, Zachariah said, \u201cOphelia, I\u2019ll give you two days and wait for your explanation. I\u2019m your husband. I hope you can rely on me completely.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia froze up.<\/p>\n
Zachariah continued saying, \u201cSince you are busy, you can leave now. Ophelia, please remember, I will always be here, but don\u2019t make me wait too long. I don\u2019t have much patience and never let me down.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then he turned and left straight away.<\/p>\n
Not until he had left did Ophelia look up, sadly gazing at his receding figure.<\/p>\n
She opened her mouth but finally closed it without speaking.<\/p>\n
Observing her expression, Madeleine changed into a sober look.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow get in the car and then we need to talk.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia listlessly followed her into the car.<\/p>\n
After fastening the seat belts, Madeleine patted the steering wheel and asked seriously, \u201cDarling, are you really not gonna tell Zachariah about your eyes? He knows about the blood clot in your brain better than you, and I believe he also cares about your eyes much more than you do. And you both know that. There is no need to put yourselves through it like this. It\u2019s not worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, Ophelia was strangely quiet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1348","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1348","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=1348"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
