My Domineering CEO Husband

Chapter 97 Am I Stingy in Your Eyes?



Edward suddenly petrified.

He quickly turned around.

At the door of the ward, a tall man was looking at him with his arms crossed and a teasing look in his eyes.

“Ahem…”

Edward coughed and said, “I suddenly remember that there are patients waiting for me over there. I, I have to go!”

After that, regardless of Ralph’s expression, the man got up directly and strode around Ralph to leave.

“Alas…”

Lottie raised her hand, trying to keep him stayed. Before she could say a word, Edward’s figure had completely disappeared from her sight.

“What, you can’t let go of him?”

When he saw Lottie’s expression, the man closed the door.

After a bang, only Lottie and Ralph were left in the private room.

The man walked gracefully to her and sat down on a chair beside her. He gently opened the lunch box for her and handed her the spoon.

Lottie took the spoon. “Thank you…”

After that, she lowered her head and carefully took a sip of the porridge. “I know what Edward said just now was nonsense. I won’t take it seriously.”

Ralph said in a low voice with a hint of a smile, “What he said is not completely false.”

Lottie was stunned and looked up at him.

There was a faint smile in the man’s bottomless eyes.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

Lottie blushed and quickly lowered her head to continue having the porridge.

Ralph narrowed his eyes slightly.

He could feel that she was very cautious.

“Lottie.”

The man’s deep voice sounded a little awkward when he called her name, but his voice was very pleasant.

She nodded silently while having the porridge.

“Has Mr. Chapman been here?”

She nodded, “And your fiancée is here too.”

“My fiancée?”

Ralph frowned. After a long while, he realized that she was talking about Alice.

The man grabbed her bowl from her. “Let me do it.”

Seeing that, Lottie felt a little uneasy. “I can do it myself.”

“I want to help.”

He shook his head helplessly and forced the spoon a little closer to her lips.

She glanced at him, then slowly lowered her head and ate the spoonful of porridge.

Ralph’s deep voice rang out softly. “Alice White has never been my fiancée.”

“But…”

“My second brother brought her back.”

“He used to be a soldier. There was an accident in his last mission before he retired. His old squad leader blocked the bomb with his body for him and died without a full body.”

“After he died, his wife who lived in the countryside couldn’t stand the blow and committed suicide. There was only an underage daughter left, so my second brother took this girl, who had become an orphan, back to the Chapman family and raised her as his sister.”

Lottie paused. “She is Alice White?”

“Yes.”

Ralph nodded and continued to feed her porridge. “When she came to the Chapman family, I was 18 years old and she was 15.”

The man’s movements and voice were gentle. “At that time, my second brother joked that he wanted her to marry me after she grew up, so there were rumors that she was my fiancée.”

Lottie’s hands silently grasped the sheets beside her. “Is it just a rumor?”

“What do you think?”

Ralph looked at her, soulfully. “If I really like her, do you think you still have a chance?”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Lottie paused.

Although his words were a little cruel, she was convinced.

Yes.

No matter what, Alice had lived in the family for ten years.

If she was really Ralph’s fiancée, if he really wanted to marry her…

How could it be the Green family’s turn to send her to his side?

But…

Ralph made another spoonful of porridge and brought it to her mouth. “Besides, before you married me, Mr. Chapman had already arranged two blind dates for me.”

Lottie was surprised.

Before marrying Ralph, she had indeed heard Claudia gossiping about him.

However, what’s going on about the gossip that he had killed two women?

Ralph smiled helplessly as if he had seen through what she was thinking. “I’m disfigured, violent, and beat women… These are all spread by Fabian.”

Lottie was shocked. “Fabian?”

“Yes.”

Ralph nodded lightly and said, “He said that he could flinch many women who want to marry me away because of my face and my money.”

Lottie, “…”

What a nonsense!

She trembled and anticipate something bad, “Then your two blind dates…”

“They were scared away by Fabian.”

The man continued to feed her porridge indifferently. “Remember what you saw when you first arrived at the Chapmans’ Villa?”

Lottie, “…”

Thinking of the monster pretending to be Fabian, she still felt frightened!

That day, she really thought that Ralph had grown up like that and was really afraid to spend the rest of his life with such a person.

… That was why Ralph’s two blind dates had been scared away by Fabian?

“I’m just telling you that I’ve started looking for their mothers before I met them.”

After that, he put the last spoonful of porridge to Lottie’s mouth. “Do you still think Alice White is my fiancée?”

Lottie silently shook her head.

She raised her head and looked at him seriously. “But even if Alice is not your fiancée, she is still your sister…”

“Why didn’t you mention it to me before?”

Ralph smiled.

He stretched out his slender fingers and put away the tableware. “Why should I mention someone I don’t care at all?”

“You married me, not my family.”

The man’s deep voice made Lottie startled.

She lowered her head. “I thought… you deliberately asked her to come and see me.”

“Why do you think so?”

“I thought…”

She pursed her lips and said in an aggrieved voice, “I thought you still cared about my past. I thought you deliberately let her come here to remind me that in fact, many women admire you…”

Ralph’s hand, which was holding the tableware, paused slightly.

After a while, he turned his head, and there was some helplessness in his bottomless eyes. “Except for Alice, don’t you know that many women like me?”

Lottie was speechless.

It seemed that… It made sense.

With pursed lips, after a long while, she hemmed and hawed, “I’m sorry.”

Ralph put away the tableware and put it on the low table beside him. “I didn’t blame you.”

“Just,”

He raised his hand to wipe the remaining soup from the corner of her mouth. “Don’t think too much in the future, okay?”

“But…”

The woman raised her head. “I so so sorry.”

“About my past…”

“Lottie.”

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by his calm voice.

He looked up at her. “I want to ask you a question.”

“Yes.”

“Do you mind I have Fabian and Elijah?”

“I don’t mind.”

In fact, she liked them very much.

“Do you mind my relationship with other women five years ago?”

“I don’t mind.”

At that time, she still didn’t know him, and she devoted all her sincere love to Luke. So she had no reason to blame him for his past.

“So.”

Ralph lifted her jaw and forced her to look into his eyes. “Why are you so sure that I will mind your past?”

“Am I so jealous in your eyes?”
