Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 536

Mrs. Chambers lay in bed for nearly an hour before she regained consciousness. Everyone came forward and gathered around her. Savannah inquired with anxiety and worry, “Mom, are you alright?”

Mrs. Chambers just looked at Ophelia and Zachariah.

Ophelia came close and said docilely, “I’m sorry, Helena.”

Mrs. Chambers snorted and spoke in a tough attitude, “Ophelia, don’t take Tommy away if you still respect me. He’s my grandson and one of the Chambers. You can’t just take him from me. Or you’re killing me.”

Ophelia stared at her with a complicated feeling. She opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say.

Mrs. Chambers then changed her attitude and said gently, “Ophelia, you know I’ve been nice to you and you know this better than anyone else. You have two choices, either no divorce or leaving Tommy here. I can let Zachariah give you a lot of money that will be enough to keep you a rich life in the future.”

Ophelia’s eyes were red with tears. What Helena said made her feel out of breath.

Zachariah put his arms around her shoulder and saved her from the pressure of Mrs. Chambers smoothly. “Mother, you need to take a good rest.”

Mrs. Chambers glared at him and questioned, “Zachariah, do you really want me to die?”

Zachariah lowered his head and said in heavy voice, “No. I didn’t mean that.”

Mrs. Chambers strived to get up from the bed. Mr. Chamber stepped forward to support her with his hands and said with concern, “Helena, take it easy.”

“How could I take it easy? My son only cared about his wife while his mother was almost made to die. And he just sat by and watched it. I may as well die now so that they won’t be bothered.” Mrs. Chambers cried with her hands clenched at her bosom.

She didn’t do anything else but her words like a dagger stabbed into Ophelia’s and Zachariah’s hearts, making them feel themselves unfilial.

Ophelia couldn’t help crying. She said, “Helena, we can talk about it later.

You need rest now.”

Mrs. Chambers watched her and begged, “Ophelia, don’t divorce with Zachariah. You two make up and I will feel better.”

But Ophelia stayed silent. Thus, Mrs. Chambers pretended to feel unwell again and said, “Are you really going this far?”

“No, Helena,” Ophelia explained anxiously, “It was hard but I’ve been very happy to have Tommy. He’s my boy and I don’t want your money. I can’t live without him. Helena, please forgive me and don’t push me. You are a mother and you should understand a mother’s heart. And I’m begging you. Don’t take Tommy away from me. Please…”

She was so sad and so desperate.

Mrs. Chambers pressed her hand to the chest and said, “You are forcing me to die. I just want my grandson while you don’t let him stay. How cruel you are!”

Ophelia looked at her without saying anything.

Zachariah argued, “Mother, even if Ophelia takes the custody of Tommy, you can still go to see him. Ophelia has never cut off your relationship. So, please don’t judge her like that. You said you liked her. Then why can’t you just respect our decision this time?”
