Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 76

Ophelia looked at him and said, “Mr. Chambers, what’s the matter?”

Zachariah said, “There are too many people.”

Holding his hand, just like a little girl who fell in love, Ophelia shook Zachariah’s hand as if she was a spoiled girl. She laughed, “Mr. Chambers, you negotiate with people every day. It’s surprising that you are also afraid of the crowd since you handle the business and earn hundreds of millions of dollars.”

“I’m scared at all. I just don’t like such a crowd. It’s too chattering.”

Ophelia naturally took his hand and smiled, “Mr. Chambers, it’s been a hard day for you, but I’m the birthday girl, and you promised to keep me company all day.”

Raising his hand, he pinched her nose, saying, “I neglected you too much in the past, so today I’ll make up for what I did to you before.”

Ophelia giggled. Although she knew that his tenderness was only transitory, she still willingly indulged in it.

“Mr. Chambers, thank you for today. We’ve been married for four years and for the first time I feel like you’re my real husband.”

Zachariah glimpsed at her, saying with some doubt, “Was I not good to you before? I cashed you with regular monthly allowance, and I had my secretary prepare for you all the designer bags, clothes and cosmetics you fancy. I don’t think other benefactors are so nice to their pets.”

She lifted the corner of her mouth, saying, “Mr. Chambers, you also said that before I was just treated as a pet. Nevertheless, today you regard me as a wife. Of course, a wife will feel delighted if her husband is passionate with her.”

Hearing that, Zachariah seemed a little thoughtful.

Looking up at him, she said, “Mr. Chambers, I’m just kidding, don’t take it seriously. After tonight, we still maintain a boss-employee relationship under the contract. Nothing more.”

A flash of displeasure passed through his eyes.

“Ophelia, so you don’t believe me, do you?”

“Mr. Chambers, it’s not a matter of believing or not, but you already have another person in your heart. I can’t break in even if I make every effort. I think it’s simpler for us to be a boss-employee relationship.” Pointing at his heart, Ophelia said.

Zachariah fell silent.

He looked at Ophelia who was seldom quiet and sweet. A strange feeling slipped through his heart that he had an impulse to hold the woman in front of him into his arms fiercely, and to say that he would not divorce her, but just as his hand lifted, Cora’s face flashed in his mind, forcing his impulse back.

Ophelia’s cell phone rang at this time, and she picked it up to see that it was from Madeleine.

“Madeleine.” Ophelia said as she picked up the phone.

“Honey, happy birthday, yesterday I was too busy with my draft to remember your birthday and didn’t send you a happy birthday in time. Come over to my place and I prepared a birthday cake for you.” Madeleine said cheerfully on the phone.

Ophelia smiled, “Wait for a while. I’ll be there soon.”

It was hard to know what Madeleine she said over there, but Ophelia kept nodding several times.

After hanging up the phone, Ophelia looked at Zachariah, smiling, “Mr. Chambers, thank you for the surprise you prepared for me today. I like it very much. Madeleine has also prepared a birthday cake for me there and I want to go over there. Why don’t you go back first? Or else it’s fine to turn to Miss Fletcher.”

Zachariah held her hand, and at Ophelia’s surprised gaze, he said, “Didn’t you say that today you are the birthday girl, the most important one, and let me stay with you all day without leaving your side? Let’s go.”

Ophelia didn’t stop smiling from this moment. Looking at Zachariah, she said, “Let’s go.”

Zachariah drove to Madeleine’s neighborhood, found a parking space to park the car, and then the two of them went upstairs together.

When Madeleine opened the door and looked at Zachariah standing beside Ophelia, she first froze and then had eye on Ophelia. Ophelia smiled, “Let’s get in first.”

Madeleine finally let them in.

Closing the door, Madeleine wrapped her hands around her chest and said, “Mr. Chambers, I hope you don’t mind my small apartment, or I can’t afford to treat you well but to invite you out.”

Zachariah didn’t mind Madeleine’s snide remarks, he just surveyed the not-so-small abode without showing any traces.

Ophelia tugged at Madeleine’s clothes and said, “Madeleine, it’s my birthday today, so please do me a favor and don’t talk nonsense anymore.”

Madeleine wore a long face, but she quickly turned her anger into joy and said, “I don’t know what could bring Mr. Chambers here. Don’t tell me that you have remembered Ophelia’s birthday.”

Ophelia tugged at her clothes and changed the subject, “Madeleine, didn’t you prepare a birthday cake and a present for me? Where’s it?”

Scowling at Ophelia, Madeleine didn’t mention anything more, just saying, “It’s in the living room.”

Ophelia went in and saw a two-layer cake on the table. Although it was such a small one, the cake was made very delicately, with Ophelia’s photo on it. A note was also attached, wishing Ophelia a happy birthday and always pure and beautiful.

Many kinds of fruit were put on both sides of the cake.

“Honey, it will be your birthday in two hours. Let’s get started.” Madeleine said.

Ophelia nodded.
