Spoiled By My Bossy CEO Husband novel Chapter 74

Lottie woke up from her nightmare with cold sweat soaking her pillow.

She looked out of the window. It was the next morning.

It's sunny outside.

Lottie wiped her sweat, heaved a long sigh of relief, and lay back on the bed.

She did not know why she had such a dream.

She never happened to such things.

But everything in her dream was very real, as if she had really experienced it.

Moreover, the fire was so heavy. If it was real, she would be burned to death.

Lottie took a deep breath and told herself that she was messed up by the movie, so she had such an inexplicable dream.

Lottie just closed her eyes when her phone rang.

Arthur Bell, her biological father, called.

"Do you want money?"

Lottie said lazily with her close eyes, "Dad, don't drink too much every day."

"Even if you used to be a special forces soldier, you are ageing now. Your body will get worse if you continue drink too much."

"You should go out to find a job..."

"Lottie."

Before Lottie finished her words, Arthur interrupted her, "I’m calling you to say goodbye."

Say goodbye?

Lottie suddenly opened her eyes and sat up, "Where are you going?"

"Didn't I tell you after I retired from the special forces, I worked as a bodyguard for several years."

"The former employer found me and asked me to protect her."

"I am at the airport now and it is in a hurry. I won't say goodbye to you face to face."

Lottie's hand, which was holding the phone, trembled slightly, "Dad, I ... what I just say is because I am worried about you."

"Please... don't leave."

"I can give you money."

"Don't leave..."

No matter how healthy Arthur was, he was now an old man in his fifties. Lottie did not want him to work as a bodyguard.

Although she always said that she disliked Arthur, she knew that Arthur was the best person in the world for her.

He did not participate in the first 18 years of her life.

But in the past five years after they met, Arthur had taken good care of her.

He taught her martial arts, fighting, and how to protect herself.

Without him, she would not have been so good as a martial stand-in.

"Good girl."

On the other end of the phone, Arthur sighed. "I'm not going back for money, but for returning a favor."

"I am afraid that I will retard you for the past five years, so I dare not contact you too much. In the future, when I go abroad, we will have less contact than before."

"Lottie, you have to take good care of yourself."

Lottie bit her lip, and her tears dropped down silently. "Then you have to be careful abroad."

"I will."

Arthur smiled.

After a while, he seemed to think of something. "You have to keep the jade pendant that I gave you last time. Don't let anyone see it. Do you hear me?"

Lottie's heart sank when she heard him mention the jade pendant.

"That jade pendant... I lost it."

After she came out of Arthur's house, she was kidnapped by Luther Miller's men and was busy from then on .

By the time she thought of the jade pendant, she could no longer find it.

She had also returned to the alley where she was being attacked and inquired about the police who had investigated the case that day, but she still could not find them.
