Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 36

Ophelia didn't know if she should be laughing or crying.

Madeleine put her hands around her chest. “Tassach, you've been really good at talking like a bureaucrat since you became the boss. It gives me goose bumps.”

Tassach smiled like a friendly-looking villain. He said, “Dinner will start within a few hours. Why don't you just stay in my office and wait for me to finish work? Dinner's on me today.”

Ophelia said, So I don't have to start working today?”

“It's your first day. I don't want you to do it in a hurry. It's Saturday tomorrow, and your work can wait till next Monday.”

“That sounds great.”

Madeleine said, “Now that you don't have to work now, why not just leave with me now?”

Ophelia frowned and said, “What has got into you today?”

Madeleine rolled her eyes at Tassach and said, “I don't like this man in the room. He polluted the air.”

Ophelia glanced at her and said, “You are an adult, don't be so childish.”

Madeleine took a deep breath and shrugged, “Fine, it's my fault. I'm being unreasonable. I'll shut up, OK?”

Ophelia was helpless.

Tassach smiled and said, “Madeleine, I should be responsible for what happened back then, and I'd like to apologize to you at dinner. Please give me the chance to express my apology.”

In Ophelia's implicit warning eyes, Madeleine nodded reluctantly.

“Zachariah, you ungrateful scumbag! Ophelia is your wife! Since when does she become your 'random friend'?” Madeleine asked.

Staring at Zachariah angrily, she pointed at the woman and continued, “I don't care what your relationship with him is, but stop being like a high school girl in front of me. You're like the typical Angelic bitch in my stories! Stop pretending you know nothing! Let me tell you -- the man beside you had already married someone else. His wife is my friend here! Do you understand?”

The woman looked at Zachariah innocently and said, “What's going on? Are you married?”

Zachariah suddenly looked gloomy. He looked at Ophelia with no emotion in his eyes. “Ophelia, tell your friend to behave herself, or I'll teach her a lesson. Cora is back today for a piano concert.”

With a decent smile on the corner of her mouth, Ophelia stretched out her arms to Cora and said, “So you're Cora? He mentioned you a lot. I shouldn't be surprised that you're so beautiful.”

Since Cora pretended not to know her, she didn't mind dancing with her, too. The woman was an Angelic bitch. Her employer, Zachariah, was trying everything he could to protect her.

The only thing that annoyed Ophelia was the mysterious pain in her heart.
