Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 186

Madeleine cast a glance at Tassach and replied, "She was almost driven to the brink of ruin and flung into prison by your family at that time. If she hadn’t met Zachariah, she would have been in jail now. So do you think she was having a hard time?"

Tassach’s eyes turned red. He threw his head back and drank the bottle of the beer in one gulp.

Madeleine patted Tassach on the shoulder and comforted him. "Hey jinx, actually Ophelia has never blamed you, so don’t be too hard on yourself."

Tassach gave a wry smile and asked, "You told me that Ophelia used to love me. Is that true?"

Madeleine nodded. "Ophelia did love you, but that was before. Now she’s married and pregnant. So come on, try your best to find a woman both you and your family love as soon as possible. Otherwise, your family would get in the way and all your efforts would be in vain if you got yourself a Cinderella."

Tassach couldn’t tell which was bitterer, his mouth or heart.

Madeleine patted him on the shoulder in a masculine way and consoled him. "It’s better for you to move on. Your relationship came to an end, so stop whining like a woman."

Tassach took another sip of beer.

"It’s late now. Let me send you home. If you make headlines tomorrow like 'The Heir of Conduibh Group Drunk Driving at Midnight', I’m afraid not only your stock, but the corporation you established with your own hands will be hit hard."

Beer bottle in hand, Tassach stared at the surface of the river and said, "Talk with me."

Madeleine buried her head in her arms and said in despair, "Hey bro, come on! We’re not teenagers anymore, and we don’t mourn for our lost love in the middle of the night. When a relationship ends, it ends. The only way to get through this is to let go and start a new one. Even the male supporting role in my novel is less sentimental than you."

"Male supporting role?" Tassach glanced at Madeleine and sighed, "So I’m just a back-up in your heart."

"Or what else?" Madeleine shrugged and replied in a casual air. Teenage girls loved the macho, while the boy next door was meant for the heroine.

Tassach could do nothing but smile bitterly.

"Come on, jinx, the sun will come out in a few hours. You have to go to work tomorrow."

Tassach got up and threw the bottle in his hand away, saying, "Let’s go."

Madeleine got into the car, fastened her seat beat and asked, "Will it be OK if you park your car here?"

"I’ll ask someone to drive it back tomorrow."

"Rich people indeed have their own ways of handling things. But since you can totally afford a car, it doesn’t matter if it’s stolen."

Madeleine sighed while driving, "Hey jinx, in fact, you made a favorable impression on me when I first met you. You’re handsome. You come from a privileged background. You’re highly-educated. You’re Prince Charming to most girls, while Ophelia is also a beautiful girl, so I thought she and you would make a perfect couple. If it weren’t for what your family did to Ophelia later, I would have agreed to leave her to your care. But unexpectedly, you shrank back, or else, the one marrying you would have been Ophelia. You two would have made a perfect family of three."

Tassach leaned back in the back seat and closed his eyes, concealing the agony.

Madeleine said no more but focused on driving. It took them almost 40 minutes to arrive at the housing estate Tassach lived in.

"Here you are. Now get off."
