Spoiled By My Bossy CEO Husband novel Chapter 23

In the Chapman's Villa…

Lottie was humming happily in the kitchen while preparing food.

Fabian took a bench and sat right in the middle of the kitchen. He then bent his head to look at her with both of his hands under his cheeks and said, “Lottie.”

The woman stopped chopping and turned back to look at him, “What is it?” She said.

“I wished you were my biological mother.”

The little boy stared into her eyes seriously, “Your eyes look exactly like ours. Are you sure that you’re not our biological mother?” He asked.

Lottie gave a helpless smile and turned back to chop the vegetables, “But I never gave birth before...”

Immediately she stopped after saying halfway through.

She gave birth to a dead fetus five years ago.

‘Does that count as giving birth before?’ She thought.

Her heart hurt for a while when she thought of her past, but immediately she switched the topic, “Have you ever seen your Mommy before?” She asked.

“Nope, not at all.” He said.

Fabian shook his head and said, “I heard that our Mommy died when she was giving birth to us.”

“But I keep feeling that she’s not dead yet, she must be still alive somewhere in this world, waiting for us to find her!”

Listening to the child’s immature voice, she sighed softly.

She sliced a small chunk of ham and stuffed it into his mouth, and she then knelt down to hug him and said, “If you believe your Mummy is not dead yet, she must be still alive.”

“You must quickly grow up and go to find her!”

Feeling the warmth of the woman’s hug, Fabian looked down and continued munching the ham in his mouth.

‘It will be so great if she were our biological mother.s’ He thought.

...

In the study room upstairs…

Elijah was sitting on the office table, struggling with his arms crossed.

“Are you going to forgive the woman just like that?”

She was the one who caused Lottie to nearly get raped yesterday.

‘Is daddy, Lottie’s husband, gonna let that evil woman go just like that?’ He thought.

Ralph looked up to give him a cold stare and said, “Of course not.”

Claudia’s business was still developing and there were still chances for the Chapman Group to make trouble for her in the business field.

However, today's matter must come to an end once and for all.

If this matter was exposed, the information people knew currently was definitely unable to satisfy their curiosity.

If Fabian and Elijah's identities were exposed, both of the kids would be unable to live a peaceful life anymore.

Even though he was a powerful person, he was not willing to let the children take the risk.

He promised the woman that he would protect those two kids.

“What does that mean?”

Seeing him remaining in silence, Elijah bit his lips. There was anger in his voice.

He was good-tempered all the time, unlike Fabian who cried and laughed whenever he wanted, and this was the first time that he looked so angry.

Ralph looked at him and slightly smiled, “So Lottie Green means that much to you huh?”

Elijah blushed as he turned away and said, “She’s your wife and my Mommy.”

Ralph gave him a sharp look with his arms crossed and said, “Just because of that?”

“Of course.”

The little kid jumped off the office table and said, “Since you’re not willing to do so, I’ll deal with that woman myself.”

He marched out the door with his short legs after saying so.

“Wait a minute.”

Ralph sat on the executive chair behind him. He slightly frowned and lifted his hand to point at a box on the table, “Give this to her, and say it’s a gift from you.” Ralph said.

Elijah lifted the box to take a look inside and said, “ A whitening cosmetic set?”

The little kid raised his sharp eyes to look at Ralph.

He knew his father very well. His father used to be indifferent, ‘What made him so kind all of a sudden?’ He thought.

Elijah’s stare made Ralph feel uneasy.

He awkwardly coughed and said, “I told your cousin, Kayden, to take care of her today.”

“Oh, that idiot.”

Lottie bit her lips and said, “My hubby is not ugly...”

The saying “Hubby” made Ralph smile once again.

He didn’t know why but whenever Lottie called him “Hubby”, it sounded so pleasing to the ear that it made him recall her charming look in the bathtub that day.

“So when will you take a photo of your husband for me?” Connie asked.

“Of course not, before then not many knew what he looks like because he likes to stay low profile. I won’t show his photo to anyone.” Lottie said.

“Stop quibbling. Your husband must be ugly.”

“Your husband is ugly, and you’re ugly, too!”

…

“Sir!”

Mario was going upstairs to deliver milk for the two little Masters. When he saw Ralph leaning against the door, immediately he greeted him.

The sound by the door shocked both Lottie and Connie on the phone.

Immediately she turned her head back.

By the door there stood a cold yet elegant man leaning against the door. It seemed like he had stood there for a long time already.

“Lottie Green, your husband must be so ugly that you are afraid of showing him to me!”

On the other side of the phone came the sound of Connie’s joking.

Lottie was so frightened that she quickly shut off her phone, “Em... I was just joking with my friend.”

“A joke with me?” Ralph asked.

Ralph gave a faint smile as he entered the room and closed the door. His tall body approaching her slowly.

His aura was so strong that she was forced to move backward until she ended up hitting the side of the bed and her whole body collapsing onto the bed.

Ralph lifted his hand and surrounded her right in the middle.

His long arms reached out for her phone and he clicked the video calling button to Connie.

It only took a while for Connie’s frightened face to appear on the phone.

Ralph switched off the phone’s volume, bowed down to look at Lottie by the bed, and said, “Lottie Green.”

His warm breath was hitting on the tip of her nose, “Tell her if I’m so ugly that you’re afraid to show me to her.”
