Chapter 270 Complicated feelings
Madeleine sighed. Of course she could understand Ophelia’s feelings. That was why she felt sorry for this out-going and gorgeous lady who actually chose to handle all kinds of hassles and obstacles on her own, which contributed to her seemingly tough façade in public.
However, no one knew that Ophelia was actually a lady lack of sense of security. As she had always been sensitive, she would always notice other’s opinions about her. But she tended to keep that in mind so others always deemed her a lady with careless mind. But the fact was that she would also get hurt in her heart just like others.
“Girl, I don’t mean to blame you. I just want to remind you that don’t get yourself hurt again. Even though you might end up divorcing Zachariah, Tassach would never be the best guy for you. I know he loves you. But he is too thoughtless to take care of you. If you chose him, you would only get hurt again.” Said Madeleine pertinently.
Ophelia shook her head and smiled bitterly, “Girl, Tassach is just one of my friends. He used to be and he will forever be.”
Madeleine nodded, “Okay, girl, just remember to keep distance. If Tassach asks you out alone, you’d better refuse. Though you have no feelings for him, he doesn’t.”
Ophelia nodded.
Then Madeleine didn’t continue.
The atmosphere fell into silence. But at this moment, Ophelia’s phone rang again. She picked it up and noticed that it was a call from Gracie.
Ophelia picked it up and Gracie’s anxious voice sounded from the line, “Ophelia, did Tassach come to you? He got out of the hospital. If he comes to you, please tell me where he is! He hasn’t recovered
yet. The doctor told us that he should stay for rest. Otherwise, his body will only worsen.”
Ophelia replied calmly, “He is now waiting outside my community. Just come.”
After saying that, she hung up the phone.
“Who is it?”
“Gracie.”
“Shit.” Madeleine cursed and continued, “She still haunts you?”
Ophelia smiled, “There is no need to get mad because of her.”
Madeleine gritted angrily, “I wasn’t mad. I just hate that annoying woman. What a jinx Tassach is! He always gets you in trouble every time he shows up.”
Ophelia just sat tight, silent.
Perhaps it was because Madeleine hated Tassach, she drove the car in slow speed. It actually took them an hour to finish the route of thirty to forty minutes only. Of course, Ophelia could tell what she was thinking. So she didn’t urge her.
When they got off, they saw both Gracie and Mrs. Conduibh badgering Tassach. When Mrs. Conduibh noticed Ophelia had arrived. She let go of Tassach’s arm and hurried over. Madeleine immediately stood in front of Ophelia to keep her behind.
Madeleine spread out her arm to protect Ophelia and said, “Old hag, what are you doing?”
Mrs. Conduibh looked a bit sullen. But she still had to put up with it when facing such an urgent situation. She looked at Ophelia to implore, “Ophelia, please, please go to convince him. He hasn’t recovered yet. He will ruin his stomach if he still insists.”
Meanwhile, Tassach got rid of Gracie’s arms and walked over while pressing his belly with one hand.
A smile appeared on his pale face, “Ophelia, glad to see you here.”
Ophelia felt sorry for him when seeing his face and so did Madeleine. Even her anger had disappeared all of a sudden. But she still deemed it a foolish way that Tassach chose to risk his own health. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
“Tassach, why did you run out of the hospital before you totally recover?” Said Ophelia, frowning.
Tassach let out a sweet smile though he still looked pale, “I miss you. So I want to see you.”
Ophelia was rendered embarrassed. She had been recognized as a married lady and her baby would be born in two months. When facing such confession from a bachelor, she only felt like being surrounded by embarrassment instead of joy.
Madeleine came forward to keep her behind.
She glared at Tassach and said, “Jinx! Pay attention to your language! What do you mean by saying you miss her? She is married and she will soon be a mother. What if others hear that? What if the Chambers know about that? Are you going to ruin her?”
Tassach seemed to be upset. Mixed feelings surged up in his heart as if he got stabbed in his chest, bleeding and heartrending.
Mr. Conduibh pulled him back and glared at Madeleine, “Madeleine, you should pay attention to your own language! You have no right to accuse my son!”
Madeleine sneered, “Old hag, I don’t care what would happen to your son! He should never get Ophelia involved. She is married! If he still tries to accost her, she would be the only one in trouble!”
Madeleine spread out her hand and wielded as if she were driving off something annoying, “Just send him back to the hospital. Don’t pretend to be pitiful in front of me. You could do nothing but to accuse Ophelia whenever anything bad happens.”
Hearing that, Mrs. Conduibh was so mad that her chest kept heaving, “How dare you…”
