Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game

Chapter 436 Mother-Daughter Talk

“Zach, thank you!” Some many words upwelled in Ophelia’s mind: Thank you for admitting you love me. Thank you for telling me I am more important for you than your sister. Thank you for letting me know I am not a dispensable person in your heart.

Gently, Zachariah drew a circle in Ophelia’s palm to express his affection.

They were so sweet on the way, which made the thirty-minute drive became almost an hour. However, Zachariah simply wanted to chat with Ophelia because they hadn’t seen each other for a month. Hearing Ophelia using sweet sound to spoil, he felt his heart was almost melting in warmth.

After finding a parking lot to stop, Zachariah took out their prepared gift from the trunk. He grabbed the gift in the right hand and Ophelia’s hand in the right side, asking with concern, “Ophelia, does your body still hurt?”

“Much better. Mr. Dixon also told me I had a good recovery, faster than normal people. Maybe I am the only one who can get out of bed to move around within two months.” Although Ophelia’s tone was brisk, she knew deep in her heart that her body didn’t have a good recovery. Her body usually hurt badly during the night time and sometimes her vision would suddenly become blurry. However, she thought it was sequela after the accident and didn’t take it seriously.

Zachariah and Ophelia took the elevator. Ophelia couldn’t help teasing with a smile, “There is something destined between us and People’s hospital at Downtown. We went to this hospital more frequently than we went to apartment in the last two months.”

Zachariah held her hand and also teased, “You can regard it as travelling.”

Ophelia got awkward for a while. She guessed no one ever regarded the hospital as a tourist attraction. Hence, she got smart enough to not make judgements about his words.

Zachariah also realized that he made a bad joke. He compressed his lips and held Ophelia’s hand more tightly. Ophelia glanced at him surprisingly. She chuckled when seeing his ears turned red.

Zachariah also looked her back. He couldn’t help smiling in happiness when finding Ophelia was also smiling.

“Well…” Zachariah said with a spoiled expression.

They came across Mr. and Mrs. Chambers when they got out of the elevator. Although both of the old couple were from wealthy family, they were actually ordinary loved couple like anyone else. Everyone would be jealous of Mr. Chambers’ care to Mrs. Chambers.

Besides, everyone would admit that Mr. Chambers was a really successful businessman. He was a good-hearted businessman acting kindly and gently. Even he was in his sixties, he still got charm. It must be easy for him to win the heart of young girls in their twentieths or thirtieths. After all, Mr. Chambers’ outlook and social status accorded with most girls’ dream. Therefore, when seeing he treated Mrs. Chambers whole-heartedly and cherished her like a priceless treasure, most people would be jealous of their love.

Accidentally, Ophelia was one of them who got jealous.

She really admired their relation. Even for old couples who had married for decades, most of them couldn’t have tacit understanding as Mr. and Mrs. Chambers did.

Although Mrs. Chambers was in hospital gown without luxurious dress, she still got elegant temperament. Even she looked a bit pale, she was still gentle.

“Mom.” Ophelia greeted her in nervous but emotional sound.

Seeing Ophelia come, Mrs. Chambers got extremely happy. She walked towards her quickly under Mr. Chambers’ support and held her hand tightly, saying, “Ophelia, why are you coming?”

Ophelia replied in a guilty tone, “After Zach returned from Paris, he told me that you got ill. Mom, I am sorry. I didn’t visit you in the first hand. Are you angry with me?”

Mrs. Chambers shook her head and replied, “My child, how could I? I am just afraid that you will worry about me and deliberately tell your father not to inform you. The Chambers family have lots of servants and anyone of them can take good care of me. It must be hard for you to look after Tommy by yourself after leaving the house.”

Ophelia felt warm. She would never meet a mother-in-law better than Mrs. Chambers in her life. She was still kind that even she had done something wrong, it was hard to blame her.

Mrs. Chambers petted her hand back and asked, “Are you still angry with me?”

Ophelia lowered her head and answered with honesty, “I was a bit angry. However, I know you also have your own concern. I have thought a lot during the half month and I am not angry anymore.” NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Mrs. Chambers was glad.

Mr. Chambers suggested, “Let’s go inside.”

They went to the ward and Ophelia took two apples from her bag, saying, “Mom, let me peel an apple for you.”

Mrs. Chambers looked at Zachariah and said, “You can peel it for Zach.”

Zach handed over the apple. Mrs. Chambers held Ophelia’s hand to sit down and asked concernedly, “How’s your body? Tommy is almost two months old. Has he bothered you a lot?”

“Zach have arranged a bodyguard for me and Tommy likes him a lot. When he is holding him, Tommy will stop crying. Now Tommy really sticks with him.” Ophelia replied honestly.

“A bodyguard? What’s him name?”

“He’s name is Ted. Mom, do you know him?”

It seemed Mrs. Chambers suddenly understood something. She replied, “Well, it’s him. He has been around Zach’s side for years. You dad used to be afraid that the Chambers family’s success would cause potential threat to Zach. Hence, he has selected more than ten bodyguards for Zach. Every one of them is top-level and Ted is the one who leaves me with a deep impression. He’s only fourteen or fifteen at that time and already has an extraordinary Kung Fu. He can even fly over the eaves and run on the walls. I am grateful that he has guarded Zach for years. I have never expected that Zach will arrange him to protect you. I can tell Zach cherishes you a lot.”

Ophelia finally understood what an important role Ted played.

Mrs. Chambers continued, “Ted is a perfect man except he doesn’t talk much. Sometimes he doesn’t speak a word for a whole day and acts like a transparent man. However, he is absolutely loyal and will never betray you. You can trust him implicitly. He has been with Zach for more than ten years, which can tell that he is a reliable man.”

Ophelia got a bit stressed.

“Mom, since he has been Zach for years, how about let him go back to guard him?”

“You really suffer a lot these days. It’s better for him to be with you. However, I am afraid that only him is not enough. How about I let your father to arrange you two more guards?” Mrs. Chambers suggested.

Ophelia shook her head and replied, “Mom, there is no need to. I seldom go outside home and there is no need to arrange too many guards to protect me. They will only get bored when being around me.”

Mrs. Chambers was teased by her words.
