Spoiled By My Bossy CEO Husband novel Chapter 96

She struggled to stand up regardless of the pain. "Edward, why don’t you go to hell?"

"If I went to hell, how can I see your lovely face when you fall?"

Edward's lips curled into a faint smile as he leaned lazily against the railing of the stairs. "Mr. Chapman is going back. He asked me to find you to accompany him back."

"Otherwise, do you think I'm willing to look for you?"

Alice White pursed her lips and made sure that Edward didn't hear the conversation between her and Lucia before. Then she took a deep breath, walked around him angrily, and left.

"Miss White."

Looking at her back, Edward warned her, "Ralph likes Lottie."

The woman paused.

The next second, Alice White turned around and stared at him coldly. "Why are you telling me this?"

"I hope you know."

Edward stretched and said, "After Ralph's brother took you back to the Chapman family, you are the adopted daughter of the Chapman family."

"No one regards you as Ralph's fiancée or wife-to-be. So you are just Ralph's younger sister. Don't think too much."

"He didn't really like you at first. Even if you helped him find Elijah and Fabian back then, he was not interested with you."

"But if you frame Lottie, I think he will choose the latter between a sister he doesn't like and his favorite wife."

"When it happens, I'm afraid his brother, Larry Morrison, will not be able to protect you."

Alice's face turned pale.

After a while, she calmed down and smiled at Edward. "What do you mean?"

"Lottie is my sister-in-law. I like her. Why would I frame her?"

"Let's see."

Alice White glanced at him indifferently. "You also said that I'm just an adopted daughter of the Chapman family. How could I frame Ralph's wife?"

After that, she turned around and left gracefully.

Edward stood where he was and coldly watched her leave.

...

In the ward, Mr. Chapman and Lottie were chatting happily. Seeing Alice come in, Mr. Chapman introduced him with a faint smile. "Well, it's getting late. Have a good rest!"

"By the way."

The old man chuckled. "I haven't introduced her yet."

"She is Alice White. Ralph's second brother brought her home. She has lived in the Chapman family for ten years. She was almost my daughter!"

After that, he turned to look at Alice. "Alice, why don't you greet her?"

A hint of disgust flashed across Alice White's eyes.

But just a second.

Then, she looked at Lottie tenderly. "Hello, Lottie."

"I've heard from Elijah and Fabian that Ralph married a beautiful woman. I was still wondering how beautiful she could be."

She pretended to look at Lottie carefully with her long and narrow eyes. "I didn't expect you to be so gorgeous. You deserve Ralph."

Although it was not the first time that Lottie had been praised as beautiful, for some reason, she felt that Alice White's words were awkward.

Even though she felt uncomfortable, Lottie still greeted her politely with a smile. "Hello."

"Ralph always mentioned you in front of me."

The woman's words instantly lit up Alice White's eyes!

She pursed her lips. "Ralph mentioned me in front of you?"

Lottie was stunned. "Yes... yes."

In fact, not only Ralph, but even Elijah and Fabian had never mentioned the adopted daughter of the Chapman family in front of her.

If it weren't for Mr. Chapman, she didn't even know that such a person in the Chapman family.

The reason why she lied was that she was just being polite by saying that.

She didn't expect this woman to take it seriously...

Probably seeing Lottie's embarrassment, Mr. Chapman frowned. "Let's talk about it later. We are a family, and we have plenty of time to talk in the future."

"It's getting late. It's time for us to go."

Alice White pursed his lips and hesitated for a long time. Finally, she took a deep breath and pretended to be calm as she looked at Lottie's face. "I knew it. Ralph cares about me."

"Lottie, let's talk next time!"

After that, she turned around and helped Mr. Chapman leave.

Lottie leaned against the hospital bed and watched the two leave, at a loss.

What was Ralph thinking...?

She had been with him for more than a month, and he had never officially brought her to see his family, and rarely mentioned them in front of her.

But today, after this... "He actually asked Mr. Chapman to come and see me?"

The woman was puzzled.

"You don't have to take Alice seriously."

While Lottie was in a daze, a dinner was placed in front of her from Edward. "Don't listen to others' nonsense. Ralph has never treated her as his fiancée."

Lottie's hand, which was holding the lunch box, paused.

"So she was Ralph's fiancée."

No wonder that woman's attitude was so strange at first. She even emphasized that Ralph cared her.

"She's not!"

He sat down on a chair next to him and said, "That's what others thought. They have never been engaged and Ralph has never treated her seriously."

Lottie lowered his head and opened the lunch box. Her voice was a little muffled. "Is that so?"

She did not remember much before she passed out. She only remembered that Ralph said that he would not divorce her.

But now, she didn't understand.

If he cared about her having a child, why did he refuse to divorce her?

If he didn't mind, then why... When she woke up in a coma, he brought his former fiancée to her?

He was reminding her that he did have other women, didn't he?

Thinking of this, Lottie clenched his hand that was holding the spoon.

After a while, she put down the lunch box. "I have no appetite."

Edward patted his forehead helplessly. "Don't think too much, okay?"

"Ralph only has you in his mind."

"Don't be affected by others."

Lottie looked up at him. "Since he has a fiancée before, why does he still want to marry me?"

Edward, "..."

He... He seemed to have said something wrong.

In fact, Edward wanted to come with Alice just now, but he was stopped by the nurse after a few steps, so he was delayed on the way.

By the time he arrived, Alice had already left.

Her proud face made Edward a bit nervous.

He was worried that Alice would say nothing in front of Lottie, so he came to comfort her anxiously.

But he didn't expect that he would make it worse...

What if Ralph knew that Lottie misunderstood it because of him and lost her appetite...?

Thinking of this, Edward took a deep breath. "Lottie, you really don't need to care about Alice."

"I'll tell you a secret."

"In fact, Ralph fell in love with you at first sight. Since the first day you met, he told me that he must be with you for the rest of his life. He loves you so much that he wants to grow old with you."

"He still..."

"What else did I say?"

Suddenly, a low male voice came from the door.
