Chapter 276 Did You Accept His Deal?
Chapter 276 Did You Accept His Deal?
Staring at the Black Card on the stable, Lottie found it pretty ironic.
She jeered and gazed at Ralph’s face indifferently, “Well, Mr. Chapman, is it a habit of yours to give
Black Card to every woman you meet?”
Ralph paused a bit and then let out a smile, “Miss Owen, I’ve made this clear. The only reason that I
want to invest on your gym is that you reminded me of my wife.”
“Rest assured. It has nothing to do with your appearance.”
Then he sized her up and down and acted he was disgusted, “Besides, Miss Owen, believe me, no one
would think you as a pretty woman now.”
Lottie raised her eyebrows and checked herself in the mirror automatically.
She asked the professional special makeup artist that she met in the film crew to disguise her as
Lucian.
God knew how much effort she has put in to make herself hideous.
Well, it was true that no man would find her attractive right now.
What’s more, she also sent her selfies to Sharp and Arthur separately.
They can’t even recognize her, so there was no way that Ralph would know who she really was!
Thinking about this, she felt much more confident.
She then grinned and examined the man standing in front of her, “I cannot take credit for what I didn’t
do. Since that Mr. Chapman is willing to invest in such a large sum of money, I got to give you
something back.”
“Why don’t Mr. Chapman tell me what exactly do you want from me?”
“I won’t take your money if you don’t want anything.”
Ralph squinted his eyes and started smiling after pondering for a while.
“Well, now that we’re talking about this. I really need to ask you for a favor.”
He took out his phone and showed Lottie Natalia’s photo.
“Do you know this woman?”
Lottie glanced at the picture impatiently and said, “Of course. She was the most famous actress in
Rexwell, Natalia Ross.”
Then she asked Ralph, “What happened to her?”
“Well, she was in a coma for a few months for some reasons.”
“But now... she is sober.”
Ralph checked Lottie’s expression after he said the sentence.
Her clear eyes instantly filled with surprise.
“She is sober?”
Natalie had regained her consciousness!
It was so wonderful!
She was finally sober!
Natalia was the one that she was worried about the most other than Ralph and her three babies after
her memory recovered.
Though she was also in a vegetative state, she had Sharp’s love, the best medical treatment and the
accompany of the Bells.
But apart from Kayden who didn’t really like her, Natalia got no one.
What’s more, Lottie held some accountability for what happened to Natalia. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
So a huge weight was taken off her chest after Ralph told her that Natalia was sober now.
“Yeah, she was unconscious for a long time and has woken up.”
Ralph smiled and said lightly, “You may not know this, Miss Own, but Natalia is part of the Chapmans
now.”
“She married my nephew.”
He then stood up, “She was out for a long time and her body functions are having a slow recovery, so
she can only move slowly now.”
“So I’m wondering if she can have her physical therapy in your gym.”
“You don’t have to nurse her. It would be great if you can admit her and let her do some practices with
you.”
Ralph frowned and glanced at Lottie, “It would probably only take her two months to return to her
normal state.”
“Do you want to take this deal?”
“Sure!”
Lottie answered immediately.
But she suddenly sensed that her response was too much, so she added, “Natalie is always my
favorite actress, so I’m really blessed to be able to help her.”
Ralph smiled, “Well then, thank you, Miss Owen.”
Then he shrugged his shoulders and said, “I will send my nephew and Natalia here tomorrow.”
“Thanks.”
Then he turned around and just left.
Lottie remained motionless and knitted her brows looking at Ralph’s back.
Well, he didn’t recognize her, did he?
He wouldn’t just leave directly if he knew that she was actually Lottie as he pestered her that much
before.
Thinking about this, Lottie took a deep breath and then went to the cottage at the back of the gym.
Arthur was playing chess with Sharp in the cottage.
“You hadn’t changed a bit all these years. You are still so shrewd!”
Arthur complained while putting all the chess pieces in order.
Sharp answered lightly, “All is fair in war!”
“Arthur, your skill in chess playing really didn’t improve a bit after all these years!”
“Well, I don’t need to improve! Otherwise, I would be as tricky as you!”
“You don’t have to be as smart as me, but you got to stop being so stupid!”
Arthur was speechless and remained silent.
Lottie heaved a sigh automatically when she heard their conversations over the door.
A month had passed since they came to the Rexwell and established this gym together.
In the past one month, they didn’t show any interest in decorating the gym or its operation.
Their daily entertainment was to play the chess, have the tea, fish and then despise each other.
Lottie finally understood why would that Arthur just disappeared whenever Sharp showed up back in
Odense.
As it turned out, Arthur didn’t go away because he was afraid that he might affect Sharp and her father-
daughter relationship.
But…
They would always be quarreling whenever they met each other.
After the noise in the room quieted down, Lottie took a deep breath and entered the room.
Arthur and Sharp immediately stopped bickering when they saw Lottie and stared at her.
“Is he gone?”
“He didn’t recognize you, did he?”
“Did you show any traces?”
“What did you talk about?”
Lottie sighed and instead of answering their questions, she took out that Black Card and put it on the
table, “He said that I hit the jackpot again.”
Sharp frowned, “What do you mean?”
Arthur examined the Black Card, “Why would he give you money?”
Lottie then told Arthur and Sharp everything about Natalia.
Stroking his chin, Sharp commented, “He didn’t give you money only for that Natalia, did he? Actually,
hospital is a better option to have physical therapy.”
Arthur also knitted his brows, “I felt the same. You didn’t accept his deal, right?”
