Chapter 41 How Dare You Threaten me?

Zachariah showed a terrible expression. “Go to sleep. I still have some work to do.” He said, while
pointing at the door.

Ophelia leaned forward, getting closer to the table between them and flirted, “A beauty is in front you
and you remain unmoved. There are only two reasons to explain this; one is impotence, the other is
you…you are not a man.”

Zachariah stood up suddenly, walked around the table and held Ophelia up by her wrist.

Gritting his teeth, he said, “Let me show you whether I am a man or not.”

All men considered suspicion of impotence as a great humiliation.

Then, they returned to the bedroom and spent a passion night together.

Ophelia was wakened up by phone rings. She picked up her phone with hazy eyes. It was from
Tassach. She pressed the answer button and said, “Hello?”

Tassach’s confusing voice came, “Are you still sleeping?”

“I have just got up. What’s wrong?”

“Nothing serious. I just want to ask whether you feel better or not now.”

“Thanks! I am alright. I will go to work the day after tomorrow.”

“You don’t have to hurry. You can wait until the week after next week if you want.”

“I don’t want to be an idle person who only wants to get paid. Other staff will complain if you treat me
like this.” Ophelia replied,



“Okay. You can come if you want. We’re friends and you don’t have to be so polite. Besides, I can also
help you with your debt and lend you several millions of dollars. You can return that sum of money
when you are spare.”

“Thank you, but I have already paid off the debt and live a comfortable life with Madeleine. You don’t
have to worry about that.”

“Okay then. I will not interrupt you. Bye.”

“Okay, bye.”

After hanging up the phone, Ophelia was about to lie down when she noticed that Zachariah also woke
up and stared at her. She was scared by his gaze and asked, “You are awake?”

Zachariah said, “Is that the man we met in the restaurant?”

Ophelia nodded.

“You’re working for him?”

Ophelia nodded again.

“You can’t go to his place anymore.” Zachariah directly refused her.

“But you agreed yesterday.”

“That man looked at you in a weird way. You can’t go to work in his company.”

“Well, you really treat me as a popular woman. How can everybody like me?”

“Don’t play tricks with me. You can’t go there.”



“I have already signed a contract and told him I will go to work next Monday. You’re pushing me by not
allowing me to go.”

“I can pay you liquidated damages.”

Ophelia got off bed naked, put on the nightgown on the ground and smiled to him, “You have to give
me a reason. I suppose you remember our deal that we won’t interfere with each other’s work.”

Zachariah squinted his eyes and replied, “Ophelia, you are really growing bold. How dare you threaten
me?”

Ophelia got into the bathroom.

Zachariah followed her, threw his arm around her wrist and looked at her in the mirror, “You can’t work
in his company. If you are lack of money, I can increase your pocket money, and you can also work in
Chambers Group if you like.”

“I love designing. Although that company couldn’t compare with yours, it provides me with a perfect
opportunity to demonstrate my talent. If you can’t think out a proper reason, then sorry, I have to go to
work.”

“You refuse me?”

“We have made a deal that we won’t interrupt each other’s decision. I can show you our contract if you
have forgotten about it.”

Zachariah showed a terrible expression and said, “Ophelia, you’re becoming bolder.”

Ophelia spat a mouthful of foaming water when brushing her teeth and replied, “I am simply defending
my right.”



Zachariah replied, “Ok, you can go to work if you want, but remember to stay away from your boss. I
don’t want you to get his smell.”

Ophelia put down the toothbrush, wiped her face with a towel and answered with a smile, “Can I regard
your reaction as a sign of jealousy?”

Zachariah didn’t say anything but left the bathroom silently.

Ophelia blinked her eyes naughtily to the mirror and began to wash her face.

Zachariah got to the bathroom after half an hour when Ophelia’s phone rang. She picked up her phone
and found it was from Helena, “Hello, mom.”

Helena said with delight, “Is Zachariah there?”

“Yes. I will ask him to answer the phone.”

“Never mind. I just want you to bring him for dinner tonight. We have guests here.” Helena smiled.

“Ok. I will go back with him after he finished showering.”

Ophelia answered in a respective manner.

“Ok. Come here early.”

“Sure, mom.”

Ophelia said to Zachariah once he got out, “Mom just called. She asked us have dinner back home.”
