After Lottie finished using the bathroom, she briefly washed before coming out.
"Ralph, let's go back to sleep..."
She opened the door while speaking hurriedly.
Because she had been in there for a bit too long, she was afraid that Ralph would think that she was going back on her words.
Just as she finished speaking, she noticed that the room was silent.
She thought Ralph had fallen asleep again.
But when she looked up...
When did four men come into their room?
At this moment, Ralph was still leaning against the bed. And Sean stood in the middle of the room with three strangers who were looking at her in shock.
The atmosphere was so awkward.
Lottie froze for two seconds and finally came back to her senses.
She smiled in embarrassment, "You guys... you want to talk about business, huh?"
"Yes... these three executives heard that Mr. Chapman was attacked so they just come over to visit him..."
Sean explained anxiously, as if he had done something wrong, "They came early in the morning. I didn't let them in in case Mr. Chapman and you were sleeping."
"Mr. Chapman usually gets up at seven o'clock. Just now I saw that it was already after nine, so I brought them in..."
After saying that, he also gave Lottie a very apologetic look, "Mrs. Chapman, I really didn't mean to disturb your and Mr. Chapman's... life."
Lottie paused for a moment before she understood what he meant.
She was so embarrassed, "Sean, you may have misunderstood something."
What she said like going back to sleep was really just sleeping!
"You don't have to explain."
Ralph, who was leaning against the bed, changed to a comfortable position in a good mood, "Go to get me the breakfast."
Lottie glanced at Sean and the people behind him.
They obviously still misunderstood her words...
But she didn't know how to explain, so she could only pout in depression and turn around to go out of the door.
The moment she closed the door, she clearly heard Ralph's low and chuckling voice, "My wife is rather shy."
Lottie was speechless.
She was not shy, but struggling after being misunderstood!
With her heart full of depression, Lottie went downstairs to buy breakfast.
It was already nine o'clock in the morning.
Lottie sat by the window and looking out as she waited for the shopkeeper to pack her breakfast.
Two people on the beach caught her attention.
It was a man and a woman. The man with glasses was fat and looked to be in his forties or fifties.
As for the woman... Lottie knew her.
She was no other than Isobel, who had recently fallen in love with Luke.
Lottie narrowed her eyes. She picked up her phone, filmed Isobel holding the middle-aged man's arm, then stored it, and backed it up.
Lottie took pictures of Isobel and the old man as long as they strolled along the beach. She didn't even notice that the shopkeeper had packed her breakfast and put it on her table.
After she went back to the hotel, she took her breakfast to Ralph's room and then went back to Connie's room.
"Oh my God, you're finally awake."
Connie lay on the couch and looked glumly at Lottie who entered, "I asked Sean about half an hour ago and he said you were still sleeping."
"And I didn't dare disturb you and Ralph, so I had to come back and keep waiting!"
Lottie frowned and responded to her perfunctorily. Then she sat back on the couch and looked through the photos she had taken earlier.
She wanted to know who the man that was hanging out with Isobel at the beach was.
She didn't remember Isobel having such an elder family member.
