Spoiled By My Bossy CEO Husband novel Chapter 47

“Yeah!”

Lottie nodded her head while picking up the food with chopsticks, “What’s wrong?”

“It’s on my way.”

“I will take you guys for a ride tomorrow.”

Ralph elegantly took the dishes in her bowl and ate it, “I take this for the fare.”

Lottie went speechless.

“Oh my god! That means I can go to the Caknard with Mr. Chapman?”

When Lottie told Connie the news after the meal, Connie directly went crazy. She texted Lottie, “At first I just want to be casual! Now it looks like I have to wear my most expensive clothes!”

Lottie sat on the bay window while glancing at Ralph in the distance secretly.

At this moment, he was leaning against the bed while reading a book.

The table lamp shone on his side face, which made the outline of his face even more shaped and more charming.

She pursed her lips and carefully replied to Connie, “You are so exaggerated…”

“You don’t understand!”

Connie sent her an emoji of rolling eyes, “Lottie, I am your bestie!”

“I am meeting Mr. Chapman for the first time so I have to make a good impression on him!”

“Otherwise, he will think that you have no good friends but only assholes like Isobel and Luke!”

Lottie inexplicably felt upset once she mentioned Isobel and Luke.

Lottie simply switched off her phone and climbed back into her bed after chatting with Connie.

“You seem unhappy.”

Ralph put the book down silently and turned the light off.

“Yes, I am.”

The room was dim as only one bedside lamp was on.

Lottie looked at the ceiling and said, “Isobel is pregnant.”

“So?”

Ralph asked nonchalantly with a low voice.

“I don’t want to hurt a pregnant woman.”

Lottie closed her eyes, “Isobel came to me again this afternoon.”

“I think you are right! I have left a weak impression so they think they can easily bully me!”

“I want to be strong and I want them to pay for what they once did…”

She released a long sigh, “But Isobel is pregnant.”

She had lost a child five years ago.

So she knew the pain of losing a child very well.

She was even clear about how cruel it was to take the life of an unborn child.

A child was innocent.

She had been hurt like that so she could hurt an unborn baby.

“It’s nothing different though she’s pregnant.”

Ralph’s voice was faint and without much emotion, “If they don’t cherish their child… then you don’t have to be merciful either.”

“It’s the child’s parents’ duty to protect the child, not yours!”

Ralph’s words made Lottie silent for a long time.

It was the parents’ duty to protect their children.

For a long time, she closed her eyes and silently grabbed the corner of the quilt with both of her hands.

She was an incompetent mother.

Five years ago, she insisted on going to send Luke off to the airport even though she knew that her child was less than a month away from being born.

An accident happened to her on the way to the airport.

It was a severe car accident.

She was rescued in the operating room for a whole day before waking up.

The baby didn’t survive and she lost her memory for over a month.

She could still remember how hopeless she was on that day.

This night, Lottie had a dream.
