Chapter 15
\nBillionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 15<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat\u2019s wrong with you? Why you are in such a terrible mood?\u201d Zachariah asked with a frown.<\/p>\n
Ophelia answered sarcastically with a smile. \u201cDo I have to pretend to be happy every day?\u201d<\/p>\n
Zachariah walked over to her, grabbed her shoulders, and turned her to force her to look him in the eyes. \u201cAnswer me, why are you so angry today?\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia glanced up and replied casually, \u201cI\u2019m just tired, not angry.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zachariah still frowned and furrowed his brows. \u201cI can tell you\u2019re unhappy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia didn\u2019t want to explain and found herself an excuse. \u201cIt\u2019s hard to understand how a woman is feeling. You can simply regard this as a mood swing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zachariah believed the lie and nodded. \u201cYou\u2019re such a weird woman.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia paused when Zachariah continued. \u201cHave a good rest tonight. As for our divorce settlement, I will ask my lawyer to call you so you can sign the papers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia stiffened and finally nodded. She knew she couldn\u2019t change anything and accepted her fate.<\/p>\n
\u201cI still have some work I need to finish. You can sleep. If I work too late, I\u2019ll sleep in the study, so I don\u2019t disturb you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zachariah patted Ophelia on the shoulder and walked past her into the hall. However, Ophelia grabbed his sleeve.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Chambers,\u201d Ophelia said, holding onto his sleeve harder than she meant to.<\/p>\n
Zachariah turned to look at her and noticed the grief in her eyes. He softened his tone and gently pulled her close. \u201cWhat\u2019s wrong?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Chambers, can you stay with me?\u201d Ophelia begged him, her heart broken.<\/p>\n
Zachariah frowned. \u201cWhat\u2019s wrong with you? A moment ago, you seemed like you wanted nothing to do with me and now you want me to stay?\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia pulled the blanket to the side and patted the bed. \u201cI am waiting for you. You usually hug me when I sleep, and I find it hard to sleep any other way.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zachariah took off his bathrobe and put on the pajamas Ophelia laid out for him.<\/p>\n
Ophelia pulled out a hairdryer and pat the bed again. \u201cMr. Chambers, sit down and I\u2019ll help you dry your hair.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zachariah sat down as asked and Ophelia helped him dry his hair. A flicker of nostalgia passed through her as she was rubbing his hair.<\/p>\n
For the first two years in their marriage, Ophelia would help him dry his hair every time he took a shower. However, as the years passed, she rarely got the chance to do such a mundane thing.<\/p>\n
It would be impossible for her to help him again if they got divorced.<\/p>\n
Realizing all of that, Ophelia\u2019s heartache grew far worse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-889","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/889","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=889"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
