Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game

Chapter 23 Grievance

Zachariah looked at Chester with complicated expression in his eyes, and said with a subdued voice, “You know what? Chester, whether I divorce with Ophelia or not afterwards, I warn you, she is still my wife, and if you do consider me as your friend, you should never say anything like that!”

A smile lifted the corner of Chester’s mouth, as if he had already seen everything hidden deep underneath Zachariah.

Then he said, “Well, I really don't think that you're ready to divorce her. Although you said you had made up your mind, while at the same time didn't want any other men to chase her afterwards. Can I make the conclusion that you still have her in your heart?”

Zachariah flushed, his face twisted and then said with a bit of anger, “Dare you say one more word about that, or I will not be so good-tempered!”

“Take it easy, my friend.” Chester stepped forwards, put one of his hands on Zachariah's shoulder and said, “I just remind you of your true feelings towards Ophelia, the woman who has married you for four years, and be cautious in decision making before you regret it afterward.”

Zachariah seemed calm, while still shot a meaningful glance at Chester and said, “Stay out of my business, Chester. I know how to handle things right, and I never regret anything in my life.”

“Well, I guess it will be only a waste of time to continue our conversation. Last warning, you will no longer be the only one to her after you divorce her.”

After bidding farewell to his friends, Zachariah went into his car together with Ophelia, thinking over the words of Chester with his eyebrows slightly frowned.

Realizing that something was wrong with Zachariah from his looks, Ophelia asked worryingly, “Your face looks pale since you came back from the restroom, Mr. Chambers. Are you feeling sick? Should

we go to the hospital?”

Zachariah looked at her with his head half-tilted, and asked in return, “Have you ever associated with Chester before?”

“What? No! Of course not. Why do you say that?” said Ophelia in wondering.

Zachariah revved up the engine in silence and pull the car onto the road. After driving for a while, he finally said, “Keep away from Chester from now on. Though we are only couple in name, it doesn't mean that you could go out and dally with other men.”

Such words really ignited Ophelia, and her face flushed with anger. She let out a bitter laugh uncontrollably and asked, “Are you serious? Dallying with other men out there? What kind of woman do you think I really am? It was you who took me out to meet your friends, and now it is also you who seems unpleasant, seeing me talking and associating with them. What's wrong with you, Mr. Chambers? Don't tell me that you are being jealous.”

“In a word, mind your behavior and do what you should do as a wife, Ophelia.” Zachariah sneered. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

“Well, just look what happened to our dear Mr. Chambers.” Ophelia seemed turned into a good mood and said, “Don't you remember that it's my character of being not so conservative that attracted you in the first place, Mr. Chambers?”

Zachariah shot a cold glance at Ophelia, but said nothing in response.

His sudden change of mood had really confused Ophelia. Then she got close to Zachariah, stroked his face tenderly and asked, “I'm serious, what happened, Mr. Chambers?”

Zachariah was still focusing on his driving.

“Hey, tell me something! I want to know what makes you so angry.” Ophelia pushed herself closer to Zachariah, with her body almost pressed on him.

“Sit still!”

Ophelia wrapped Zachariah's neck with her arms and continued, “Mr. Chambers, don’t be angry with me. You look so serious now, and I am scared.”

Suddenly, Zachariah glanced at her and pulled over the car. Soon, he pinched Ophelia's chin forcefully, and said, “Now, I'm wondering what's in your mind, Ophelia!”

His pinch was so forceful that Ophelia almost cried out for pain. However, she stared at Zachariah flatteringly and said with a smile, “I'm just wondering what you are thinking. You are really making me embarrassed since you neither tell me anything about your anger nor stop being angry with me.”
