Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 77

Only Ophelia, Madeleine and Zachariah celebrated the birthday this year. It was the simplest birthday that Zachariah had ever participated in. Looking at Ophelia who was making a wish in the reflection of the candle fire, he could not help but feel sympathetic.

He was the only son of Chambers Family. His birthday was always given much attention so that many businessmen dreamed to resort to the banquet to have connections with him. The participants of his birthday party were mainly businessmen celebrities. Besides, the gifts he received were also at the price of million dollars or even tens of million dollars. Nevertheless, as for the woman next to him, he married her for four years, but not a single year was spent to throw a birthday party for her. When he was happy, he demanded the secretary to buy her a designer bag, or top make-up brands, or else to buy a separate villa, and then sign her name on the real estate license. Other than that, he couldn’t remember what he had done for her.

According to him, Ophelia was just a small pet. When he was happy, he would take her out for a walk. When he was unhappy, he would just put her aside. The gifts he gave Ophelia were all prepared by the secretary. He said Ophelia was obsessed with money and all the top brands. In fact, he was not clear at all what she was fond of.

Seeing the woman in front of him who felt so content with just a single cupcake, Zachariah wondered if he really knew Ophelia. She said she loved money and all the designer brands. Was she really like that?

Zachariah was a little confused.

Madeleine’s slightly satirical sounds pulled back the wandering Zachariah, “Mr. Chambers, today is Ophelia’s birthday. I wonder what gift you the rich have prepared for her.”

Before Zachariah could say anything, Madeleine continued, “Let me guess. I think such a rich guy as Mr. Chambers should be never short of money. The prepared gift must be a diamond ring or a designer bag. Well, the gifts prepared by the rich like Mr. Chambers are really nothing new at all. You don’t even know what Ophelia really likes.”

Zachariah was sulky and said, “What do you mean by that?”

Madeleine comfortably cut another piece of cake and said with a sneer, “Just literal meaning. Mr. Chambers, you have got a double doctorate, a famous elite student. How can’t you even understand this?”

Ophelia glanced at Madeleine, whispering, “Madeleine, you’ve gone a bit too far. If you keep doing so, I’ll get angry.”

Madeleine scowled at her, saying with hatred, “Honey, can’t you see that I’m blaming on him for you?”

Ophelia’s eyes flashed a glimmer of gloom, but she smiled cheerfully on her face, “Mr. Chambers and I are just a contractual couple. How could you expect Mr. Chambers to treat me well as if he’s a real husband? Besides, who said I don’t like designer bags and clothes? Those are worth tens or even hundreds of thousands. Some women couldn’t own it at all, but I am so content. Don’t scare away my benefactor, otherwise we’ll have to bring out the worst in each other.”

Madeleine felt even more resentful.

Zachariah pondered.

“It seems that you’re not into the diamond ring necklace I gave to you.” Zachariah thought for a moment and uttered.

The cake that Ophelia had just swallowed got stuck at her throat all of a sudden, and she coughed violently, which really frightened Zachariah and Madeleine.

Madeleine quickly got her a glass of water and said, “Take a drink first.”

Ophelia took the water and gulped it before she could barely suppress the violent cough.

Madeleine gently patted her back and mixed her care with blame, “How come could you chock yourself when you were having the cake as usual? You are always careless while doing things. How worrisome you are!”
