Chapter 44
\nBillionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 44<\/p>\n
Ophelia pretended that she didn\u2019t hear anything, while Helena said, \u201cIf you continue talking nonsense, you have to go upstairs.\u201d<\/p>\n
Savannah finally stopped talking.<\/p>\n
Helena looked at Ophelia with affection and said, \u201cHave you had breakfast yet?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, mom.\u201d<\/p>\n
Helena nodded and said, \u201cIf you don\u2019t, I can ask Mrs. Gordon to prepare you some.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBoth of us have had breakfast. It\u2019s fine, mom.\u201d<\/p>\n
Helena nodded with a smile.<\/p>\n
They chatted casually.<\/p>\n
Time flied and soon it was lunch.<\/p>\n
Ophelia was sitting right to Zachariah on the table, while Cora seemed to sit on his right deliberately. Helena petted Ophelia\u2019s hand and comforted her, \u201cNever mind. You are my real daughter-in-law, while others are simply my son\u2019s passers-by.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia glanced at Cora and whispered, \u201cMom, don\u2019t think too much. She is the guest and I should treat her nicely.\u201d<\/p>\n
Helena\u2019s fondness toward her grew and she said, \u201cYou\u2019re a good child. If my son makes you angry, you only have to tell me and I will teach him a lesson.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia replied with a smile, \u201cHe\u2019s always busy at work, but he treats me well. Recently, I have found a job and he doesn\u2019t stop me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Helena frowned and asked, \u201cWhy are you going to work? Doesn\u2019t he give you enough money?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, mom. I get bored sometimes and want to get a job to kill time. I major in designing in university and that is why I got a job in a design company.\u201d Ophelia explained patiently.<\/p>\n
\u201cYoung people should have opportunities to improve themselves. It\u2019s a good chance. However, there\u2019s too much work or the boss is too mean, you can always quit the job and I will ask my son to arrange an easy job for you in the company.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThanks mom. If that company is mean, I will take a job in Chambers Group.\u201d<\/p>\n
Because of Savannah, the guests left once the lunch was over and Steffan\u2019s suggestion of playing chess failed.<\/p>\n
Steffan scolded Savannah after the Fletchers left, \u201cYou\u2019re becoming ruder now. She is your mom. How can you talk her back impolitely in front of others?\u201d<\/p>\n
Savannah stared at Ophelia fiercely, \u201cDad, I am not talking her back. I just don\u2019t like to have lunch with someone.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOphelia is your sister-in-law after all. You not only put her in dilemma, but also make your brother embarrassed. How would others treat our family if this spreads out? Our family was a laughing stock a few years ago. Do you want to let that happen again? What\u2019s wrong with you?\u201d<\/p>\n
Savannah replied, \u201cDad, are you blaming me?\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia tried to comfort them and said, \u201cDad, it\u2019s all my fault. I don\u2019t have a rich or powerful family background and can\u2019t match Zachariah at all. No wonder Savannah doesn\u2019t like me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zachariah frowned and didn\u2019t want Ophelia to look down on herself.<\/p>\n
His voice became cold and serious, \u201cSavannah, you should apologize to her!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-918","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/918","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=918"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
