Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 543

Ophelia dodged Zachariah’s hand subconsciously. She lay down on her side and said in a low voice, "Zachariah, join them in the dining room. I don’t want to eat. I just want to take a nap."

Zachariah looked at his empty hand, his heart sinking.

"Have dinner first and then go to bed. You have to eat something."

Ophelia hesitated for a moment before she finally said, "Zachariah, we’re about to get a divorce, but now we still behave like a couple. Do you think it’s normal?"

Zachariah looked at her back and replied forcefully in a tender way, "As long as we haven’t divorced, I ought to treat you like my wife. Or you don’t enjoy me getting close to you at all?"

Ophelia remained silent.

Before long, the maid came back with dinner. Zachariah forced Ophelia to have some food, and after that, she felt drowsy.

"Go to sleep if you’re tired," Zachariah coaxed.

Lying in bed, Ophelia did feel sleepy, but her mind stayed awake. In order to avoid his piercing eyes, she pretended to be sleeping.

Seeing her motionless, Zachariah thought she was asleep, so he pecked her on the forehead and whispered in her ear in a gentle voice, "Don’t worry. Nobody can hurt you when I’m with you. You want a divorce, and I’ll divorce you. You want Tommy’s custody, and I’ll give it to you. I’ll give you whatever you want." After that, Zachariah left the room.

When the door was closed, Ophelia opened her eyes, tears gushing out.

'Zachariah, how will I survive after we divorce?'

Ophelia stared at the photo of her and Zachariah. It was taken not long ago. In the photo, she was beaming a charming smile and nestling against his chest, while he draped his arms around her waist, his chin resting gently against her shoulder, his eyes tender. Anyone would say they were a couple in love once they saw the picture, but who knew their happiness would be so short-lived, and the flower of their love was about to wither before it even bloomed.

Zachariah left the room and went to Helena, saying earnestly, "Mom, I have something to tell you and dad."

Helena glanced up at him and said, "If you’re going to talk about custody of Tommy, I have nothing to say. I’ll stand my ground. Go get divorced as you wish, but Tommy must stay."

Zachariah insisted, "Mom, I need to talk to you over something. Would you please join me in the study?"

Now that Zachariah insisted, Helena thought for a while before nodding.
