Spoiled By My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 284 What Is Happening?

Lottie looked at Ralph in a daze. She was never afraid of what those men would do. It might be

terrifying in the past, but after all those dramas, Lottie just wanted to enjoy her life with her new identity.

Thus, she opened the gym. That was why when Anna's family had accused Lottie hurt them, she did

not hesitate to really hurt them. She used to repress all of her feelings, and that made people like Luke

and Isobel think it was OK to push her around. She dressed ugly just to avoid attention. Living without

burdens was all that Lottie wanted. However, she never expected Ralph to step out and solve her

problems even when she looked like that.

Lottie couldn't deny the fact that she still had feelings for him. When Ralph stepped up and fixed all of

her problems, Lottie felt like she was in one of her dreams. He was elegant and aloof like always, and

she couldn't refuse his warmth, and Lottie didn't like where this was going.

She didn't put her hand on Ralph's as he expected. She just looked at him, frowning.

"Why are you helping me?" she asked.

Ralph smiled slightly and replied, "As I said before, you remind me of my wife. Though you are not as

pretty as her, still there is something about you. Maybe it's your personality. I just want others to help

my wife if she ever needs help as I helped you."

It was the perfect answer, and Lottie didn't know what to do. Natalia gave Ralph a thumbs up in her

head.

After a few seconds, Lottie looked up and asked gently, "Then how do you expect me to repay you, Mr.

Chapman?"

Ralph chuckled and spoke, "I haven't eaten since noon."

“Why?” Lottie asked with surprise.

"Busy with work,” he yawned and looked around and asked, "Is there a kitchen here? I'm not a picky

eater. Some spaghetti will be enough, and I'm willing to pay for the ingredients."

"I can buy you a meal..." Lottie responded. She was afraid Ralph would know who she was through her

cooking.

"I don't like to eat out," Ralph answered with a bitter smile and sighed, "You don't have to if it's too

much trouble.

It's OK, really. It's just ... I haven't eaten homemade food for years. Sean always orders me takeouts,

and I am just sick of it, so I just blurted out."

Ralph's words softened her heart.

She pursed her lips and when she was just about to speak, Natalia approached her and grabbed her

hand, and pleaded, "I’m kinda hungry too. Please say yes, Ms. Owen,” and she looked at Ralph asked,

"You don't mind me eating with you right? Since you said you will pay for the ingredients, I think I have

to ask.” Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Ralph curled his lips and replied, "I don't have any problem with that long as Ms. Owen doesn't mind."

Lottie sighed when she heard their conversation.

"All right then."

She headed to the courtyard of the gym with Ralph and Natalia after saying that. When she was

leading them there, she took out her phone and texted, "Ralph is coming for dinner. STAY IN THE

ATTIC!"

Jerry and Arthur didn't know how to respond to Lottie's text. They were her parents! Why did it feel like

they were doing something wrong? However, Lottie was their daughter, and they always caved. They

grabbed their chessboard and ashtray and other stuff and ran to the attic.

When Lottie brought Raplph and Natalia into the door, the room was empty and clean.

Lottie was relieved. She told them to make themselves at home and entered the kitchen to prepare the

food. Natalia sat on the couch and felt something pointy under her butt. She reached out with confusion

and pulled out a chess pawn.

Luoyan looked at the chess piece with confusion and murmured, "Why is this thing here?"

Ralph, who was standing on the opposite, reached out for the chess piece and studied it for a few

seconds. He put it on the coffee table and said with a smile, "I remember Lottie's father loved playing

chess."

Jerry's face flushed with guilt. Arthur rolled his eyes at him and whispered, "I thought you picked up all

the pieces!"

Jerry sneered, "I did. But I didn't know how did it get on the couch. Maybe you know the answer."

“What do you mean? It's none of my business! You are the one that.

.."

Jerry and Arthur were whispering at each other at first, but after a while, they couldn't help themselves

and started to shout at each other.

Even Lottie heard the noise from the kitchen. She was annoyed and coughed loudly to remind them

what was happening, and the noise in the attic finally stopped.

Natalia looked at Ralph in shock and pointed at the attic. When Lottie was thinking about how to

explain it, Ralph asked loudly, "I heard some noise from the attic. Is this an old building? Maybe one

lack of repairment for a long time."

Lottie was washing vegetables when she heard Ralph's words, and she answered immediately, "Yes!

That's right. I have two mice in the house. They always wander in the attic and make noises."

"Is that so? Maybe I can ask Sean to bring you some rat poison and mousetraps tomorrow. I don't think

it will be a problem. I will help with those obnoxious mice,” Ralph answered with a serious tone, yet the

corner of his mouth was up.

"Thanks so much, Mr. Chapman. I never thought you would notice trivial things like that!"

"Don' mention it. Like I said before, you are a lot like my wife. When I help you, I have the feeling that I

am helping my wife."

Ralph's words made Lottie stop at once.

'What is happening? This sounds so weird. Helping me feels like helping his wife? Why does it sound

familiar? Is Ralph courting me?' Lottie wondered.

Lottie’s eyes widened with shock. She had birthmarks and scars on her face, and Ralph became

interested in her after seeing her face? She couldn't believe it!

'He looked for me everywhere when I left and returned to Rexwell after he failed. And now, less than a

month, he wants someone else? Even a girl like this? What happened to him? Is there a possibility that

he is doing this because I hurt him too much when I left him? He is into ugly girls now?' Lottie

wondered.

Thinking of this, Lottie looked at the glass door beside her, and she could see her reflection clearly.

Though she was in good shape, she was still ugly.

When Jerry and Arthur saw her face for the first time, they were petrified and asked her to change into

something mild. But she liked this look no matter how many people she terrorized. That was why it was

really hard to believe that Ralph would like this face!
