“You're so eager to divorce me because you want to throw yourself into Tassach’s arms?”
“Mr. Chambers, you’re right. Without you, my sugar daddy, I think Tassach should be a better substitute. There’s a saying that great trees are good for shade, not to mention that I also work in his company, best for me to get benefits. Such a good thing, anyone knows how to choose, right?”
Zachariah's face sank completely, and he continued driving without a word. Ophelia skimmed her lips and leaned back on the passenger seat boringly.
Neither one of them spoke again, and the atmosphere became very strained.
Zachariah drove the car all the way to their apartment in the city.
Back in the apartment, Zachariah pushed Ophelia against the wall, his deep eyes looked straight at her and whispered, “What the hell is going on between you and Tassach?”
Ophelia tugged on his tie and pulled him over. She looked at him and said, “Mr. Chambers, don't you think it's ridiculous for you to dwell on this issue now?”
Zachariah cupped her chin and said, “No, it’s not. You are my woman, I have the right to know who you hang out with.”
Ophelia giggled and looked pleasant. She raised her hand and wrapped it around Zachariah's neck and said, “Mr. Chambers, you’re the hottest man I’ve ever seen.”
Zachariah looked at her strangely and said, “Don't do that.”
Ophelia, still smiling delicately, winked at Zachariah and said, “Mr. Chambers, you’re the hottest man I’ve ever seen. I think no woman can resist your charm.”
“...”
Zachariah looked at her strangely, “What are you trying to say?”
“I’m just trying to say that, Mr. Chambers, you are one in a million, I can’t get over you no matter what. As long as you don't divorce me, I won't find the next sugar daddy. So, are you happy now?”
“Even if I divorce you, you are not allowed to be with another man.”
Ophelia laughed heartily as if she had heard some funny joke.
“Mr. Chambers, I regard it as an imposition.”
“You belong to me, even if we get divorced.”
Ophelia could not help but say, “Honey, can we please not get a divorce? The way we are now, it's actually quite good. Can you... not drive me away?”
Looking right into Ophelia’s helpless eyes, Zachariah's eyes flashed with a touch of heartache.
“When did I say I was going to drive you away?”
Ophelia leaned on his arms. Perhaps because of the late night, she only felt a little vulnerable, “Mr. Chambers, can we not divorce?”
“Stop it, please.” Zachariah embraced her and went upstairs together, “It’s getting late, and you are pregnant, it is now imperative to get a good sleep. If you don't want to go to work tomorrow, I can call and ask for leave for you.”
Ophelia laughed and said, “Was Mr. Chambers afraid that I would get tangled up with you?”
Zachariah glanced down at her, “Of course not. I believe you are a smart woman and know what is best for you. Good girl, go up and sleep well, as for other things, we can talk tomorrow. And as for Tassach, I'm not going to it pass so easily.”
Ophelia hid the loss in her own eyes and said, “Fine, sleep. Mr. Chambers, do you need me to give you a special service tonight?”
The light in his eyes changed. He picked up Ophelia, kicked open the bedroom door, walked in, and closed the door again with one foot, then walked quickly to the bed and put her on the bed, and he lay his tall body directly on top of her.
