Chapter 80 Reflect on It
Ophelia shook her head and said, “Mr. Chambers, don’t misunderstand me. It’s the dream of many people to get into Chambers Group where too many outstanding elites gathered. For me, I’m just an undergraduate from an ordinary university. It’s hard for me to be admitted into the company because of my minor degree, so I won’t dream about it.”
He curled up the corner of his lip and said, “If that’s what you’re anxious about, beg me and I’ll give you some priorities.”
Ophelia couldn’t help smiling.
Just as he thought she would say yes, Ophelia balked, “Mr. Chambers, I still like the original company.”
Zachariah was a bit angry, “You’re rejecting me?”
“Mr. Chambers, it’s true that you are my benefactor, but other than playing a role as the daughter-in-law in Chambers Family and satisfying your sexual desire, it is clear that the contract doesn’t require me to change my job.”
“So, you’re still going to S City?”
Ophelia nodded.
“Ophelia, don’t push your luck or you won’t get a single penny when we divorce.”
Ophelia looked at him calmly, “Mr. Chambers, when it comes to divorce, if I join Chambers Group, when we get divorced, should I continue to stay in the company and put up with others pointing at me, or should I resign and roll out of the company like a dog in a funeral?”
Zachariah said, “You can remain in the company if you want to.”
“Do you want me to be regarded as a monkey by the whole company?”
“Business shouldn’t be mingled with your private life. It is well-disciplined in Chambers Group and they should know how to guard their speech. Just don’t worry about it.”
“Mr. Chambers, since you are mighty, of course they won’t gossip you behind your back, but I’m different from you. Without the identity of the wife in Chambers Family, I’m nothing. People’s words can be fearful. I’m afraid I couldn’t even remain here for five days.”
“You’re not the kind of woman who looks down upon herself.”
Ophelia fell silent.
After a long time, she said quietly, “Mr. Chambers, although I am shameless, I don’t want to be seen as a monkey, either.”
Zachariah stood up and said, “It’s fine if you want to go to S City. Before you leave, let’s sign the divorce agreement. I don’t want to have a disobedient pet.”
Ophelia suddenly changed her face, then she climbed on Zachariah like a beautiful snake and said, “Mr. Chambers, you can leave me, but can you live without my sexy body?” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Zachariah changed his look, and squeezed her waist with his right hand, saying suggestively, “As long as you behave well, you’re still the madam of Chambers Family.”
Ophelia said peevishly, “Mr. Chambers, I’m just going to S City for a few months and I’ll be back immediately after the training, so can we not divorce temporarily?”
“Who said to divorce me in the car just now?”
“Who? Mr. Chambers, you are so excellent that women couldn’t help to chase after you closely when they see you. How could they let go of such a big fish as you, Mr. Chambers?”
“A big fish?”
“Mr. Chambers, you are wealthy with an excellent family background and you are definitely the most eligible bachelor. Since I’m fond of money, how could I let go of you easily? What do you think about it, Mr. Chambers?”
Ophelia kept saying some kind words as if they were free of charge.
Zachariah put his arm around her waist and said, “Since you fear that I will be wooed by others, you’re still going to S City?”
“It’s a work arrangement for me. In addition, your true love is back, so it would be unappealing for me to be here in a deadly way.”
Zachariah pinched her nose and said, “Sleep first. I’ll reflect on your business trip to S City.”
After saying that, Zachariah no longer cared about Ophelia and went straight upstairs.
Ophelia looked at his back as he went up. She felt a bit up and down, unable to guess what he was really thinking.
His mind was always hard to guess. He gave his few remaining tenderness to Cora, but showed nonchalant to other women. However, today he cared about her birthday and even prepared her a birthday gift. In fact, she received such a gift every year, but this year Zachariah himself asked others to produce a special gift on which were engraved the principal letters of their surnames, which could be considered as their token of affection.
Ophelia went upstairs and tried to enter the room, but she didn’t expect Zachariah to lock himself inside. Ophelia was embarrassed for a moment. She didn’t expect Zachariah to do such a childish thing.
“Mr. Chambers, open the door, please.” Ophelia knocked on the door and shouted.
Ophelia shouted several times, but the door was not open.
Ophelia awkwardly looked at the closed door. This was usually a woman’s trick to show anger, but she didn’t expect it to be used by Zachariah. She became the one who was refused to come in and she thought that she shouldn’t have offended him.
Ophelia knocked on the door a few more times in a row, but the person inside was still unwilling to open the door for her, so she had to go to the guest room to sleep. Fortunately, the guest room was a place where Madeleine would also come to spend the night while Zachariah was on a business trip, so pillows and quilts were inside. Ophelia took the specially prepared pajamas for Madeleine and went to the bathroom to take a hot bath. As she came out and made the bed to go to sleep, she didn’t expect a knock on the door.
Ophelia walked to open the door, and the one who stood outside was Zachariah who had already changed into his pajamas.
“Go back to sleep.”
“Mr. Chambers, didn’t you refuse me in?” Ophelia retorted with a wry smile.
“I was just in the shower and didn’t hear you knock.”
Ophelia just smiled and didn’t break down his tricks.
Back in the bedroom, Ophelia climbed into bed, and when Zachariah got into bed, she naturally lay into his arms.
“Mr. Chambers, were you just messing with me?” Ophelia laughed.
“It’s nothing. Don’t think too much about it.” Zachariah put his arm around her, and the two of them acted like a real young couple.
“Go to sleep.”
Ophelia leaned reassuringly into his arms and soon fell asleep.
