Madeleine swallowed a bit of saliva in fear and managed to chin up, âWell, since when that President Zachariah can have a say in my relationship with my friends? Iâm certainly not like Ophelia and wouldnât just blindly obey your orders.â
âI donât care about who do you want to befriend with, but donât you egg Ophelia on. She is my woman and would still be even when we get divorced.â
Madeleine broke into laughers out of sheer anger. Not in her life had she ever met a man who was both a tyrant and a playboy. How on earth can he have the audacity to say such a thing that he still can control Ophelia even if they were divorced? What a douchebag!
âPresident Zachariah, donât you think that you are a bit greedy.â
âAm I?â
Well, itâs true that he was wealthy, handsome, highly-educated as well as competent in work. Such a man was probably one in a million in real life and no one would say a thing even if he was indeed a playboy.
âPresident Zachariah, do you even know what kind of life that Ophelia wants?â Madeleine took a deep breath and asked.
But Zachariah just remained silent.
âWell, I assume that you donât know a thing about what Ophelia wants. She is absolutely stunning and for that, she is sometimes mistaken that she must be frivolous and lack in self-respect, but the truth is, sheâd never even been to night clubs or bars. She dreams to settle down and has her own little home since she was young. But sadly, you are not the one for her.â
Madeleine stood up and continued thoughtfully, âPresident Zachariah, if you truly have feelings for Ophelia, then I advise you to value and cherish her more. I promise you that you would feel like you have lost the whole world if you really lose her one day.â
Grabbing her purse, Madeleine added, âPresident Zachariah, please be nice to Ophelia. Iâm gonna go and tell Ophelia that I said goodbye.â
Then Madeleine just left for she didnât want to stay here and be a third wheel.
When Ophelia didnât see Madeleine after she went back to the living room with the noodles, she casually asked, âWhere is Madeleine?â
Zachariah answered, âShe has to be somewhere and just left.â
Ophelia glanced at him playfully and put down the noodles, âPresident Zachariah, Madeleine is my best friend, could you just be a little bit nicer to her?â
âArenât I nice enough to her?â
Well, he wasnât wrong. Madeleine was the one who would just attack him whenever she met him. Zachariah was actually generous enough to put up with her.
Handing Zachariah the chopsticks, Madeleine said, âPresident Zachariah, have a taste of this. I havenât cooked for a while and donât know if itâs to your taste.â
Zachariah then started gulping down the noodles. Though Ophelia didnât know whether the noodles tasted good, but Zachariahâs reaction was truly satisfying.
After Zachariah finished, Ophelia asked, âThere are still some left in the pot, do you want more?â
Zachariah shook his head.
After clearing up all the dishes in the kitchen, Ophelia went out.
Zachariah patted the seat next to him, âCome and have a seat.â
Ophelia followed his orders.
Zachariah glanced at her and directly asked, âAre you still in contact with the Conduibh Family?â
Ophelia tilted her head and managed to be calm, âWhy would you ask that?â
âMadeleine told me something when we were chatting.â
Ophelia couldnât figure out what had Madeleine exactly told him, but she knew that Madeleine knew what to say. However, she was still afraid that she might go out of her way to belittle the Conduibh Family to stand up for her.
âWhat did she say?â
âJust what happened between you and the Conduibh Family. Why are you so nervous? Do you really have something fishy going on with that family?â
Zachariah probed.
Ophelia immediately gathered herself up and mused how to handle this. Zachariah was quite sophisticated and mastered at getting the information he wanted from other people.
âIâm sure that President Zachariah must have ways to find out whatever you want. Why would you waste the time and ask me?â Ophelia asked calmly.

The Vixen's Man ï¤15 Zachariah scanned her, âNobody is allowed to hurt my woman.â
Opheliaâs heart skipped a bit, but still remained all smiles, âMadeleine always wants the best for me and probably exaggerated on some matters. You donât have to take it seriously. I would deal with the Conduibh Family myself. They are just a bunch of irrelevant people. We donât need to put so much weight on them.â
Zachariahâs eyes were as deep as a bottomless abyss.
âMadeleine just said that she was still in contact with Mrs. Conduibh and didnât mention you. So, you stayed in touch with them?â
He finally got what he wanted to hear.
Ophelia became serious and just asked, âPresident Zachariah, what exactly do you want to know? You can just ask me.â
Zachariah paused a bit.
âIs President Zachariah wondering whether am I still in touch with Tassach? I knew that after the photo accident, you must have secretly investigated my relationship with Tassach. Well, just as you probably have known, I met Tassach in college and had feelings for each other before, but didnât end up being together for various reasons. Then I just married you. In our five years of marriage, Iâve never betrayed you whatsoever. President Zachariah, what else do you want to know?â
