Chapter 510 The Divorce Battle (Part Two)


    "It’s been five years since we got married. Have I ever lied to you?" Zachariah asked in a husky voice.


    Ophelia looked away and replied, "Zachariah, we’re both angry now. I’ll spend the next few days with


    Tommy at Madeleine’s, and let’s talk about divorce again when we calm down."


    Zachariah grabbed her hands and pleaded, "Ophelia, stop that. It’s my fault, and I can exin the


    situation to you. It has taken a lot for our love to get back on track. Do you really want to see our


    rtionship break apart?"


    Ophelia stared tearfully at Zachariah. Suddenly, she shook his hands off and shouted out all the


    grievances she had buried deep down inside all these years. She really got into the character, so much


    so that she almost forgot that she nned all this.


    As the saying goes, "Repeat a lie a thousand times, it will be a conviction." Now, even she


    believed the lie she made up herself.


    "I’m serious, Zachariah. Have you ever seen me make a scene during these five years? You said you


    like sensible women. Fine, I y the part of a thoughtful Mrs. Chamber well. You y around with other


    women. Fine, I turn a blind eye to it. You can’t forget about your old lover. Fine, I tell myself I’m simply a


    recement for her. You pay no attention to your sister bullying me. Fine, I keep telling myself it’s all


    right. After all, we’re family. But have you guys really regarded me as your family? Savannah staged


    that car ident, but you just scolded her for a while and left. She’s still the beloved daughter of the


    Chambers family, but do you know how disappointed I am with your punishment for her? You have no


    idea how unjustly I have been treated during these five years. But that’s OK. I’m satisfied as long as


    you love me. But now I find that your love for me is also fake. How do you expect me to stay in the


    Chambers family? Tell me!" Ophelia roared.


    Zachariah was stunned. He never expected Ophelia to lose control like this. However, her usations


    cut him deep like a stagger.


    He was guilty about it. He regretted having treated Ophelia so poorly for five years, and now it had


    be the greatest regret in his life. Now that Ophelia talked about them one by one, he felt even


    guiltier. If he had known earlier that he would fall in love with her, he wouldn’t have been so indifferent


    to her during these five years.


    Seeing the sadness in Zachariah’s eyes, Ophelia regretted it too.


    Actually, she didn’t intend to make aint against him. Her marriage with Zachariah was a


    contract one to begin with. As a recement, she didn’t dare to imagine that he would fall in love with


    her at all. Besides, Zachariah had been kind to her all these years, at least financially. The only thing


    was that he couldn’t give her his love.


    Love was a luxury. It mighte along with luck, but one could never force it. Therefore, she had no


    comints against him.


    Everything was written down in the contract when they got married. Opheliained now because


    she knew Zachariah was in love with her.


    Now they were still under contract. Truly, Ophelia asked for a divorce today, but if Zachariah got serious


    and looked through the items, he would find that they couldn’t get divorced at all. But she still did so


    because she wondered if he really loved her. If Zachariah loved her for real, Ophelia would regret for


    the rest of her life having destroyed this rtionship, but fortunately, she got his love; if not, that meant


    they didn’t have a solid emotional foundation at all.


    Zachariah reached out to grab Ophelia’s hand, but she dodged him.


    Her eyes twinkling, she licked her lips and said, "I’m sorry. I just lost control of myself."


    Zachariah pinned her against the wall and said, "Ophelia, if I make you unhappy, tell me about it, and


    I’ll make it right. If you want time to cool down, I’ll give you time. But please don’t divorce me. I promise


    you I’ll only pay attention to you in the future."


    Ophelia almost burst into tears. Zachariah was a proud and confident man, but he actually became so


    humble for her and promised her. She closed her eyes so that he couldn’t see the tears.


    Meanwhile, God couldn’t care less about her deep love for him. He turned a blind eye.


    When Ophelia opened her eyes again, she had settled down a lot. Then she said with a wry smile,


    "Zachariah, did you forget that our marriage is a contract one, and that only you have the right to


    divorce me? If you insist, we can never get divorced, because I don’t have one hundred million to pay


    you back, remember?"

    Ophelia mentioned it deliberately to see how much Zachariah had changed for her. She was being


    selfish and wanted to know how much he cared about her on earth.


    Zachariah pressed his palm against her cheek and asked, "Are you testing me, Ophelia?"


    Ophelia shook her head and replied, "No. I just hope that you’ll be harsh on me, so that I’ll have a


    reason to leave you. I’m exhausted in this marriage, and I can’t hold on anymore. Either you force me


    to stay, or you let me go. I don’t want your money, but I need Tommy. He’s my life."


    Zachariah’s eyes turned red as well. If Tommy was her life, then what was he to her? Howe she


    could ask for a divorce so easily? Even if he was wrong, why couldn’t he have another chance?


    "Ophelia, why are being so harsh on me?"


    "I’m sorry."


    Zachariah raised his head to hold back his tears, saying in a hoarse voice, "Isn’t there anything worth


    remembering during our five-year marriage?"


    "Yes, there is. I can’t forget your care for me for thest few months." A pang of nostalgia gleamed in


    her eyes before she finally gave a bitter smile. "Thest few months are beautiful, but there’s nothing


    more. It’s just that I love you, and I can’t help it. You know you’re a great man, so you’ve treated me


    indifferently, but I couldn’t help but fall for you. To tell you the truth, I think I’m a loser, but I just love


    great men, and any woman would fall for them, yet I don’t want to y the role of a waiting wife in this


    marriage anymore. I’m worn out."


    Zachariah stared deeply at her. He didn’t understand why Ophelia must get a divorce. He did make a


    mistake, but he was willing to make amends for it. However, he didn’t think the mistake he made was


    so serious that she must punish him with divorce. He thought she had gone too far.


    "Let me drive you home. Let’s talk about it again when you calm down." Zachariah let go of Ophelia


    and changed the topic.


    He walked out of the room first, while Ophelia followed. After taking a few steps, Ophelia said,


    "Zachariah, I want to stay at Madeleine’s house with Tommy for a few days."


    His knuckles cracking, Zachariah held back his anger and replied, "You stay at home, while I’ll stay


    outside for a few days in the name of going on a business trip. Let’s both calm ourselves down and talk


    about itter, but I won’t get a divorce."


    Ophelia’s heart sank.
