Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 413

Madeleine clenched her teeth and said, "Miss King, we all know you’re full of shit, and you don’t have to prove it to us again and again."

Gracie ignored Madeleine and held her chin up high, taking the high road.

"Ophelia, I heard that you gave birth to a boy. Now you have a husband and a son, and you’ve got all the things a woman is supposed to have, but why must you have teased Tassach when he was determined to forget you?" Arms-crossed, Gracie questioned Ophelia.

Ophelia stared at her.

Madeleine, nevertheless, couldn’t stand it anymore and chimed in, "Miss King, I’m afraid it’s not up to you to decide who Mr. Conduibh should be with. Ophelia had a car accident, and it’s reasonable that he paid her a visit. Do you want to put the 'Mrs. Conduibh’ hat on and control him while you haven’t even married him yet?"

Gracie squinted at Madeleine with a defiant air and replied, "So what if I do? Tassach will be mine someday. Both his family and mine have tacitly approved of our relationship, and we’ll get married sooner or later. I’m just exercising my right in advance."

Madeleine was lost for words because she found Gracie delusional.

What Gracie said also left Ophelia dumbfounded. Truly, Gracie was staking out her claim, but that also showed how unconfident she was.

A confident woman never revolved around a man. A smart woman would make her man obsessed with her while keeping him at an arm’s length. In that case, all he could think of was still her, even though they were a million miles apart from each other.

Gracie rose to her feet and looked down at Ophelia in a condescending way, saying, "Since you aren’t dead, I have no reason to stay. I’m leaving now."

After that, she left immediately before Ophelia and Madeleine could say anything.

Madeleine scowled at her back, stupefied. Then she looked at Ophelia and snorted, "Is there something wrong with that woman’s… ?" She pointed at her own head.

Ophelia said resignedly, "That’s just some nonsense. Ignore her."

Hands on her hips, Madeleine retorted indignantly, "But she’s so mean! Didn’t you hear what she just said? No wonder Jinx doesn’t love her. Were I a man, I wouldn’t choose her either. Her only redeeming feature is her appearance, and her personality is simply nasty."

"Well, she isn’t happy either. She has done so much for Tassach yet gets nothing back from him. I totally understand why she would vent her anger on me."

"Don’t be ridiculous! She loves Jinx, but does that mean Jinx must love her back? Love doesn’t work that way. Otherwise, no one would ever have killed themselves for love."

Ophelia shook her head. Apparently, she didn’t want to bother herself with this issue anymore. In her view, Gracie was nothing but a passer-by in her life, and she wasn’t worth her attention at all.

One month had passed in the blink of an eye, and Tommy was one month old. The Chambers family took the celebration party very seriously. After all, he was the first grandson of the family. Therefore, Helena began to make preparations the day Tommy was brought home. She went through everything herself, including the decoration of the house, the invitation cards and so on. Zachariah, who was busy working and taking care of Ophelia, didn’t pay much attention to the celebration party instead, while Ophelia did. However, she hadn’t fully recovered yet. Even if she had spent the last month in the hospital, she could only walk in a small area, and her body would ache all over if she walked a little longer, so she was unable to help with the celebration party.

It was Tommy’s one-month-old celebration party today. Accompanied by two doctors and two nurses, Ophelia was discharged from hospital and taken back to the Chambers Mansion by Zachariah personally.
