Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 47

Ophelia nodded and told her everything the doctor said, "The doctor told me that there are some problems with my ovary, which makes it difficult for me to get pregnant. Thus, I think I'd better divorce Zachariah, just as I have discussed with him previously."

Such an unexpected response stunned Helena and made her a little bit angry.

She shouted, "Have you just said that you guys had even been talking about divorce? Why are you keeping this from me?"

"Mom, we just don't want you to be worried."

"Wait, do you mean you two are even going to keep this a secret, and notice everyone after everything is done?" said Helena, and Ophelia could do nothing but quietly nod her head.

Helena, with her heartbeat uncontrollably speeding up, clapped on her bosom and tried to calm herself down. Ophelia worriedly came up and asked, "Are you alright, mom?"

Helena shoved Ophelia’s hand away and shouted, "Don't you ever call me mom again if you are going to divorce Zachariah!"

Ophelia panicked, while still said sincerely to Helena, "Mom, no matter what happen between me and Zachariah, I will always love you and regard you as my mum. Since I married Zachariah, you have always been treating me like your own daughter, ignoring my poor background and giving me love as much as you can. To be honest, I have never imagined that I would meet someone as elegant and kind as you in this family. It is you who makes me willing to stay here for the rest of my life. However, it is always difficult to explain what a couple will face in the future, and maybe the relationship between Zachariah and me and the in-law relationship between you and me will end soon."

Ophelia was by no means an impulsive woman. It was her honesty and respect for her mother-in-law that pushed her to reveal everything to Helena.

If there were anyone Ophelia could not bear to leave after divorcing Zachariah, it would definitely be her mother-in-law Helena.

After taking a deep breath to calm herself down, Helena turned to Ophelia again and asked, " I guess everything started from Zachariah, doesn't it?"

Without denying it, Ophelia only responded slowly, "Mom, just as what I have said, no one could easily tell what will happen to a couple in the future. The reason I tell you all this now is because I don't want you to be caught off-guard by then."

Helena, with her hands trembling uncontrollably due to anger, asked affirmatively, "Is Zachariah going back to Cora again?"

"Mom, the woman stuck in Zachariah's mind has never changed. No matter how hard I tried to get myself closer to him in the past four years, he just cannot stop thinking about that woman. Maybe it's time for me to give up." said Ophelia.

For four years, her husband had neither ever truly loved her, nor wished to have a child with her.

Helena stood up, and said, "I'm not going to allow such a thing to happen. You stay here and take some rest, and I'm going to call him back. Don't worry, dear, I'm always on your side."

Ophelia grabbed Helena's hand in panic and looked at her with pleading eyes, "Please, mom, I can handle this. Zachariah is truly filial enough to obey your words, but I don't want to force him to stay with me."

With tears burning behind her eyes, Helena looked at her beloved daughter-in-law and said, "You know you don't have to be kind to him on this, dear."

"This is how I love him and our family. Don't worry, mom, if there is any chance for me to sustain our marriage, I will try my best to strive for it. And I want you to know that no matter what happens in the end, you will always be my mom."

"OK, I understand, dear. Now, take some rest, and let me know if you want any help from me, Okay?" said Helena.

"Thank you, mom!"

Helena left the room and went downstairs with a sulky face.
