Chapter 37
\nBillionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 37<\/p>\n
Cora reached out her hand and shook hands with Ophelia. Then she said, \u201cAre you his friend? I’ve never seen you before.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat’s because I met him after you went abroad. I’m still glad that you know me now.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI see…\u201d Cora turned her face and said to Zachariah, \u201cShe’s your friend, but why are you showing then that attitude? You may scare them.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zachariah put his arm around her waist and said, \u201cI think they are here for dinner. We shouldn’t get in their way from too long.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIn that case… maybe we should go now,\u201d Cora said, nodding to Ophelia. Then she went downstairs with Zachariah.<\/p>\n
Madeleine was so angry that she wanted to yell, while Ophelia sounded so helpless and desperate, \u201cJust don’t do it, for me, OK?\u201d<\/p>\n
Madeleine withdrew her curse and asked worriedly, \u201cAre you OK?\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia shook her head and said to Tassach, \u201cI’m sorry you have to see this.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tassach was a gentleman. He said, \u201cYou don’t look very well… I think we should drop the dinner, and let me send you two back home.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia smiled apologized, \u201cThat will be nice.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe’re friends, and you can always turn to me if you need any help. I know the guy was Zachariah, but I don’t know your story. Is what Madeleine said true? Are you really his wife?\u201d Tassach asked.<\/p>\n
Shaking her head, Ophelia said with a rare begging tone, \u201cPlease don’t ask me those questions now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tassach was not the kind of gossip guy. So he changed the topic and said, \u201cI’ll send you home first. Just remember to get back to work the day after tomorrow. Remember what I told you just now, call me if you need help.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you!\u201d<\/p>\n
Tassach sent Ophelia and Madeleine back to her downtown apartment. When Ophelia got out of the car, she thanked him politely, \u201cThank you for what you’ve done for me today. I’ll be at work in time the day after tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tassach nodded and replied gently, \u201cTake a good rest and don’t think too much.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia nodded.<\/p>\n
After Tassach drove away, Ophelia said to Madeleine with a pale face, \u201cI\u2019d like to stay at your place tonight, is that OK?\u201d<\/p>\n
Madeleine held back her anger. She didn’t want to blame this poor woman. So they took a cab and went back together to her three-bedroom apartment.<\/p>\n
As soon as they were back in the room, Madeleine put her hands around her waist and said, \u201cOphelia, the scumbag is showing his mistress in front of you, don’t you feel that you should do something?\u201d<\/p>\n
What she said gave Ophelia a headache. She begged, \u201cCan you please stop it? I don’t want to talk about him now.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy are you still laughing?\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia shrugged and said, \u201cI know you’re doing this for me. Trust me, I know what I should do and what I shouldn’t. I’ll take every cent I deserve.\u201d<\/p>\n
Upon hearing her reply, Madeleine stopped being stern.<\/p>\n
\u201cOphelia, you were such a coward in the restaurant just now.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was because Cora came back so suddenly that I don’t even have the time to react. When I see her next time, I’ll teach her a hard lesson.\u201d<\/p>\n
Madeleine sneered, \u201cI trust you, but given how soft and recessive you were in front of Zachariah, I doubt that you can give that Angelic bitch a real lesson.\u201d<\/p>\n
Madeleine paused before continuing, \u201cThat woman looked innocent and pure. She’s so good at playing the fool and pretended to be weak. Men like this kind of women. No wonder Zachariah still loves her after what she had done to him years ago. His heart must have softened when she looked at him with those deer eyes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou do know that you’re speaking highly of our enemy, right?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo! I am warning you that you should never look down upon your rival,\u201d Madeleine said, shaking her index finger.<\/p>\n
Ophelia crossed her legs and leaned forward in a charming manner, saying, \u201cThen the battle just gets more challenging and fun, doesn’t it?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-911","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/911","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=911"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
