Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 188

"You sure have a short memory, Mrs. Conduibh. I also got involved back when you did that nasty thing to Ophelia," Madeleine taunted. "But I can tell you must be an old hand since you felt very at home doing something so sneaky and underhand."

Mrs. Conduibh pretended to be pondering before replying, "Well, now it’s coming back at me. You’re the one called Marilyn Lowe, right?"

"Excuse me, my name is Madeleine Lowe, not Marilyn Lowe. Please don’t change others’ names as you wish, Mrs. Conduibh."

Mrs. Conduibh faked a smile.

"I wonder what it is that you want to see me about, Mrs. Conduibh?" Ophelia got to the point, asking.

Covering her mouth, Mrs. Conduibh smirked and replied, "There’s nothing serious. It’s just that the other day, Tassach said you were working in his company, so I came to see you. After all, it’s almost been five years since we last met."

Ophelia said, "Rest assured, Mrs. Conduibh. I already resigned from Mr. Conduibh’s company, and we barely talk in private. Moreover, I’m now married and pregnant, so our relationship is innocent. Don’t worry."

Mrs. Conduibh simpered, "Ophelia, I’m afraid you got me wrong. I came today simply to see you, and I hope I’m not disturbing you."

Madeleine felt sick. She even lost her appetite at the sight of the food served by the waitress.

"Mrs. Conduibh, if you have something to say, just spit it out. Stop putting on a show. You work too hard, and we lose our appetite watching you."

Mrs. Conduibh’s face darkened and she said, "I haven’t seen you in years, but you have become more sharp-tongued than ever, Miss Lowe."

"Thanks for your compliment, Mrs. Conduibh, but I only show that side of me towards the people I dislike. Once I see them, words just pop into my head themselves."

Mrs. Conduibh pulled a long face.

Ophelia was making the sauce quietly aside. When the sauce was done, she asked, "Mrs. Conduibh, do you want any spice in the sauce?"

Mrs. Conduibh moved further away from the sauce in disgust and replied, "Thanks, but no thanks!"

Ophelia nodded, put the sauce in front of Mrs. Conduibh and said, "I think the hot pot is ready. Please start to eat, Mrs. Conduibh. It’s rare that you would think of me, so I hope you’ll have a nice lunch today."

Mrs. Conduibh put the food in her own bowl and ventured, "Ophelia, I can hardly tell you’re pregnant from your appearance. How long have you been pregnant?"
