Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 531
Ophelia, calm down. No one can take Tommy away from you. You’re his mother. Tommy will certainly stay with you. No one’s gonna steal him from you. I can promise you that.” Zachariah said gently, which comforted her.
Ophelia calmed down and realized her gaffe. She tidied her hair and lowered her head. “Sorry, I overreacted.”
Zachariah looked at her tenderly and then then reached out to wrap her in his arms with his chin on her head. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
Ophelia breathed in his manly breath and cried helplessly. She knew she was too sentimentally attached to Zachariah, which was a bad sign.
“I’m fine now.” she calmed down and gently slipped away from Zachariah’s arms with a shifty look in her eyes.
“I’m going to see Tommy.” After saying that, Ophelia hurried out of the bedroom.
Zachariah’s dark eyes darkened with his fists clenching as he watched her walk out of the room.
Zachariah also left the bedroom, found Mrs. Chambers, and pulled her outside.
He made her a solemn bow and said, “Mom, Ophelia and I are divorcing for sure but I promise you that she will still be my wife for a while. I hope you will respect my decision and not interfere in my marriage. Tommy is young and it is natural for him to stay with his mother. The divorce was negotiated between us.”
Mrs. Chambers had a dull pain in her chest.
“Bullshit! Zachariah .” Mrs. Chambers was turning blue with livid anger.
Zachariah had his back straight and his face serious.
He said, “Mom, I’ve thought this through.”
“Zachariah, I don’t agree. I don’t agree with your divorce. Tommy is too young to be a single-parent child and there is no tradition of divorce in our family.”
After a pause, Mrs. Chambers added, “I had warned you that Ophelia didn’t deserve you when you introduced her to me but you didn’t listen to me and insisted on marrying her. I turned a blind eye because I thought that you were devastated by Cora’s leaving. I told you when you got married that once you got married, it’s not possible to get divorced. No matter what you did out there, you had to return to your family.
I don’t care if you have another woman out there but Ophelia is the future hostess of the Chambers Family for sure. Hence, there’s no doubt that I do not approve of your naive divorce.”
Zachariah looked at Mrs. Chambers and suddenly compromised. “Mom, I know what I’m doing. I said that Ophelia would be back to the family soon. I promise you. I’ve never ignored your words. Just let me make the decision this time.”
Mrs. Chambers was even angrier.
“Nonsense! Divorce is no trifling matter.” She waved and said, “Stop it. I don’t agree with your divorce and Tommy, as the eldest grandson of the Chambers family, will stay here forever.No one is gonna take Tommy unless I die.”
After saying that, Mrs. Chambers entered the hall without looking at Zachariah.
Zachariah’s eyes grew probing. He had not expected his gentle mom to be so opposed to the divorce. He seemed to have underestimated the importance she attached to marriage.
Mrs. Chambers stormed into her bedroom. Mr. Chambers, who was reading quietly in bed, looked at her. He put the book down, got out of bed and walked over to her. “What’s going on? Why are you angry?”
