Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 466

Mrs. Chambers said with a smile, “Time is limited so we didn’t prepare any delicacy. You just came back from America. I don't know whether you are used to Chinese food so I have prepared both Chinese and western food for you. Have a taste and see if you like it!”

Mrs. Jenkins looked at all the dishes and said with a smile, “You are very kind, Helena. What a big meal!”

Claudia Jenkins said, “Mrs. Chambers, we will eat anything. When we are at home, my mom always asks the servants to prepare Chinese food for us. We are not used to eating American hamburgers and cheese because we always think they are not as good as authentic Chinese food.”

Mrs. Chambers were even happier and said, “Nice. I’ve worried that you might not be used to Chinese food.”

At table, the vibe was fairly laid back. Claudia and Ciara Jenkins were both those modern young ladies who looked fashionable, beautiful, confident and socially active. But Claudia seemed to be more interested in Zachariah. After all she knew that Ophelia was his legal wife so she won’t ask improper questions but chitchat.

“Mrs. Chambers, my mom told me that Zach was fully in charge of the Chambers Group now. Is it true?” she asked seemingly casually as she took a sip of soup.

Ophelia looked at her subconsciously but was still silent at last.

Zachariah didn’t even look at Claudia from beginning to end. He behaved like a good husband, keeping Ophelia's bowl full of food, and said as if there had been nobody else, “Do you want to eat fish? Let me get it for you?”

Ophelia glanced at him and whispered, “Zach, you know we are not alone. Right?” She implied that now was not a proper time to publicly display affection because after all the Jenkins family was invited by Mrs. Chambers.

Zachariah added some fish fillets to Ophelia’s bowl, calmly took a mouthful of rice, cared not a whit for being stared.

Mrs. Chambers looked at him and forgot to answer Claudia's previous questions.

Gathering her wits together, she apologized, “I hope you don’t mind. Ophelia and Tommy just survived a car accident some time ago. She is still recovering now so Zach takes care of her all the time. They are so lovey-dovey that even me and Steffan can’t stand it! But we parents always feel reassured seeing this.”

Mrs. Jenkins smiled.

A light of jealousy came into Claudia’s eyes, but she soon returned to normal.

“Aww, Mrs. Chambers, Zach is mature and with a sense of responsibility while Ophelia is beautiful. They are so in love and make a perfect match! They really make me want to date as well.” she said with a sweet smile.

Claudia knew he didn't like her so she wisely changed the topic, “Cayden, you kept mentioning Savannah before you came here. Why don’t you say anything now that you see her?”

Cayden smiled gently and said, "I haven’t met Savannah for more than 20 years. Now she has grown into a beautiful woman. I didn’t even recognize her at first sight so I dared not to speak to her boldly.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Chambers appreciated him more and was even more willing to set him up with Savannah.

“Savannah, you should talk to Cayden. You two used to play together when you were children. Back then you always told me you wanted to marry him.” Mrs. Chambers deliberately mentioned the past.

Savannah felt nothing but impatient because she didn’t have a thing for Cayden at all. She would be interested in a man like her brother Zachariah who were aggressive and masculine. But obviously Cayden was the complete opposite.

After all the elders were all here so Savannah said politely, “Mom, we haven't met for more than 20 years. I almost forget everything happening in my childhood. I don’t even remember I have played with such a nice person before.”

Mrs. Chambers said, “It doesn't matter. Now you remember. Cayden just came back so he must know nothing about here. You can show him around tomorrow. You are about the same age and should have a lot to talk about.”
