Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game

Chapter 268 Out of Instinct

Madeleine smiled, “Girl, actually I still hope that you could adapt to be Mrs. Chambers at ease.”

The smile on Ophelia’s face faded away gradually. A trace of tiredness flashed across her eyes. She leaned against the seat and said with low voice, “Zachariah lurches from Cora and me. He always offers me unrealistic promise while flirting with Cora. I can’ tell which side of him would be the true one. Sometimes I do hate him for being so frivolous about our relationship. But actually I hate myself more than that because of my declining bottom line. I feel really humble in this relationship and I have almost dumped all my faith at the beginning.”

Hearing that, Madeleine felt a bang of pain in her heart.

She couldn’t help grabbing the steering wheel much harder, “Girl, since the marriage bothers you so much, why don’t you divorce him? I don’t think he would be so mean that he would ask you for the penal sum of a hundred million. After all, you have married him for years.”

Ophelia crossed her eyes and let out a bitter smile.

Madeleine took a look at her. She was also aware that she had no right to comment on the marriage between Ophelia and Zachariah as an outsider. As complicated as the relationship had always been, it would be really physically and mentally exhausting to make a clear cut between both of them.

“Girl, if you don’t want a divorce, just try to capture his heart.” Madeleine suggested.

Ophelia sighed and said with frustration, “Zachariah is too moody to be predicted. I have been married him for almost five years. But to be honest, I only know half of him at most. Though he seems to be nice to me and he sometimes does something intimate to me, now I still fail to be sure if he has ever kept mere love for me.”

Madeleine tittered while turning the wheel, “Girl, the only thing you make me annoyed is that you always hesitate and flinch. In my opinion, you have nothing to be worried about. At least you have tried hard even though your relationship might come to a bad end.”

Ophelia shook her head, “Okay, just stop the topic. I don’t want to go back home tonight. Just let me stay in your apartment.”

Madeleine smiled, “Great. You know what? Ever since you married Zachariah, you have seldom stayed with me for a night.”

Ophelia pulled a wry face, “Did you even notice yourself that how busy you were when you are working on your novels? You always told me not to come every time I wanted to go for a visit.”

Madeleine blinked her eyes, “Come on, don’t get me wrong. I still managed to treat you with the best dishes every time you dropped by. You really break my heart if you said so.”

Ophelia then looked a bit more relaxed.

After seconds of silence, she continued to talk about Carson, “Madeleine, I can tell that Carson is serious about you. What do you think?”

Madeleine paused for a while but her eyes looked bleak, “Girl, just stop. He is just my boss, the one who pays me for my work. Besides that, there is nothing gotta happen. Yes, I am the author of best- sellers. But the money I earn couldn’t even weigh a penny when compared to his family’s. Do you think that his family could allow me to fit in?”

Ophelia remained silent.

The paralleled backgrounds of both had been a prerequisite for a happy marriage. Though it sounded philistine, it actually made sense. Only when both of the couples were raised in a similar level of living

condition and received a similar level of education would the lady feel easy to fit in after marriage. By then she would also be more comfortable to adapt to all kinds of formalities.

Though it was common to see some fairy tales like Cinderella with a happy ending, Cinderella would still be facing more than just the relationship with the prince. She should also be ready to face all members of the royal family. She should also be expected to learn all kinds of manners and formalities while putting up with fleer. She had no choice but to face all kinds of trifles and obstacles head to head. In the end, there was only two options left—stay tough, keep fighting or ended up with divorce in lonely sadness after being defeated. Meanwhile, the prince would then marry a princess with paralleled status under the arrangement of his family.

Though the second marriage might be less affectionate, at least it should be smooth.

And that was the cruel fact.

“But Carson seems to be the one who could decide on his own even in his family. Why not give him a chance?” Ophelia said after thinking for a while.

Madeleine looked at her and said, “Girl, are you being bribed by him. You actually try to convince me for his sake? Tell me, what did he offer you?”

Ophelia answered awkwardly, “Come on, I just want you to grab this excellent guy.”

Madeleine was even a bit confused when hearing that, “Why? Girl, you have only seen him for once. Why do you try so hard to make us a match?” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Because of instinct.”

Madeleine was even more confused, “Girl, I still remember you hate instinct, don’t you?”

“But the instinct of being a female tells me that you should fall in love with him and he will surely treasure you.”
