Chapter 390 One Will Pay the Price for Offending a Female

Because of Zachariah’s command, even if there came a day when Ophelia left, Ted wouldn’t tell him
where she was as promised.

When Zachariah threatened him to tell Ophelia’s spot, Ted could refuse him by repeating his command,
“My present boss is mistress. I will only take orders from her. It was you who made me promise with my
own life that I would not betray her even I was in face of great danger. I am simply following my
professional ethics. Sorry.”

At that time, Zachariah would be speechless, feeling he was the one who fell into a pit of his own
digging.

However, those would only be future possibilities.

Zachariah stood up, tidied himself and asked, “Do I look good?”

Ted and Cohen were already getting used to Zachariah’s weird behavior today.

“Boss, you are the most handsome one in all situations.” They finally remarked in a light-hearted
manner.

Zachariah’s mood suddenly got well.

“Let’s go.”

After leaving the KTV, Cohen served as the driver, while Ted went to get on another car.

Zachariah closed his eyes in the backseat to have a rest. During their way to the hospital, he closed his
eyes all the time without saying a word.



When he was about to get off, he told Cohen, “You can drive the car back. I only need Ted to guard
me.”

Cohen nodded, replying, “Yes, boss.”

Zachariah got off while Cohen directly drove away.

Ted followed Zachariah to take the elevator.

Pushing the door open, they found there were only Madeleine and Ophelia in the ward. Ophelia already
fell asleep, while Madeleine was closing eyes to have a rest when leaning on the couch. As soon as
Zachariah and Ted got in, she immediately opened her eyes alertly. Finding it was Zachariah, her nerve
finally loosened up.

Zachariah commanded casually, “He’s the safety guard.”

Madeleine was surprised to hear this. She looked at Ted up and down directly and remarked without
politeness, “I always think safety guards are ugly men with poker face, but your guard looks so
handsome. He’s really a perfect man, tall, good-looking and stylish. Well, president Chambers, I think
he is more of an idealist man than you.”

The muscle twitched at the corner of Ted’s mouth. Madeleine definitely made a judgement on purpose.
Was she going to let him lose his job by saying this?

Zachariah glanced at her coldly.

Madeleine shrugged. Obviously, she didn’t care about his gaze at all.

She reached out her hands and introduced herself with a smile, “Hello, hot guy. My name is Madeleine.
It’s very nice to see you. What can I call you?”



Ted got a bit hesitated and tried to keep cool without saying anything.

Madeleine blinked her innocent eyes and started making fun of Zachariah, “President Chambers, I
finally figure out where your guard inherit his cold emotion from. It is all because of you. Well, you don’t
have to play cool in daily times, otherwise, your guard will learn from your bad habit. He is a handsome
man, but it is a shame for him to be influenced by you.”

The muscle twitched more severely at the corner of Ted’s mouth.

However, deep in his mind, he really appreciated Madeleine. Zachariah was an omnipotent boss. No
one dared speak out his disadvantages when facing him. The woman in front of them was possibly the
first one who dared challenge him.

Was she a fearless woman? Or was she a dumb woman with only good looking?

Ted chose the latter one. She was simply a dumb woman.

It was his judgement based on the first impression. However, Madeleine was a dumb woman with
nerve.

If Madeleine knew Ted defined her as a dumb woman secretly, she would definitely take off her
snickers to beat him.

Although Ted’s mind was wandering, he still reached out his hand to greet Madeleine.

“Hello, you can call me Ted. The underlying meaning of my name is numerous stars at night.” Ted
introduced himself seriously.

Madeleine showed a thumb’s up towards him and remarked, “Got it. You are much better than
president Chambers. Ophelia will like you more.”



The muscle twitched extremely fast at the corner of Ted’s mouth, while Zachariah’s expression
suddenly darkened. Ted felt he was under great pressure by Madeleine’s retaliatory words.

Zachariah glanced at her. However, Madeleine shrugged and still tried to provoke him, saying, “Don’t
look at me in this way, president Chambers. Your guard is a much more lovely person compared with
you and Ophelia likes lovely person.”

Cold sweat started running down on Ted’s body. He felt a high mountain was being put on his back.

It was true that one would pay the price for offending a female.

Zachariah didn’t want to waste time with Madeleine. He walked by Ophelia’s bed and looked at her
gently, asking, “How long has she fell asleep?”

“About two hours.” Madeleine also lowered her voice subconsciously, seeming to be worried about
waking her up.

Ted also looked at Ophelia on the bed. It was the first time for him to see her in such a short distance.
He had met her before, but it was from a far distance. His impression on Ophelia was only that she was
a gorgeous and attractive woman. Except that, he didn’t have any good feeling about her.

Ted was also a man. He had to admit that Ophelia was a deadly weapon to men. Every man would be
attracted by such a beautiful woman and regard her as a perfect lover.
