Chapter 33 I Won’t Run the Risk
“You’d better also let Isobel kneel before me and apologize to me.”
Lottie twitched her mouth. “Let all people that look down upon me kneel before me.”
Ralph was a bit surprised when she said so.
He narrowed his eyes and smiled. “OK.”
Lottie turned to look at him. “Shall I provide you with a list of names?”
Ralph smiled faintly. “It will be better if you do so.”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“If not, I can find them out myself.”
Lottie was speechless.
Was Ralph serious?
She sighed. “I was just kidding.”
With that said, she rolled down the window and the wind blew in.
The cool wind calmed her down, “I was very cool when I just refused Brodie. I told him that I could solve the problems myself.”
“I’d be ashamed if I ended up relying on you.”
Ralph looked at her face quietly.
Lottie looked into his eyes without flinching.
After a while, he turned his head and looked ahead. “I’m always there when you are in need.”
Did he agree with her?
Lottie nodded hurriedly. “I know it.”
She looked at him with a smile. “I won’t be polite if I need your help.”
He turned his gaze and saw her beautiful smile as if there were stars in her eyes.
Ralph subconsciously reached out and gently stroke her head. “I’m waiting.”
His intimate touch stunned Lottie.
Ralph didn’t feel anything wrong. He gently rubbed her head and withdrew his hand. Then he leaned against the seat to take a nap.
Lottie felt her soul out of her body.
She blushed and shivered a bit. Her heartbeat quickened.
Subconsciously, she peered at Ralph from the corner of her eye.
When he closed his eyes to take a nap, she was observing his handsome and noble profile.
Maybe she couldn’t have married a great man like him if he hadn’t had two kids.
They arrived at the villa by car half an hour later.
Fabian was playing chess with his grandpa and didn’t come back. Elijah went somewhere else.
Lottie turned on her computer when she went upstairs to change her clothes.
More and more people abused her on the Internet.
Someone posted Lottie’s picture and information. Her picture was edited and “Bitch” was on her face.
It was an insulting word. Though she was strong-minded, she still felt uncomfortable when she saw it.
She was angry when she read the news.
She thought herself strong enough, but she couldn’t calmly pocket the abuse.
She couldn’t handle it calmly.
Suddenly, her cell phone rang.
Looking at the caller ID, Lottie took a deep breath and answered the phone. At the same time, she started recording this call.
“The boss has agreed to kick you out of the studio.”
Isobel on the phone was smug, “Lottie, I’ve told you before. You can’t fight against me.”
“When we first met each other, you were noble and proud while I was a miserable girl.”
“At that time, you considered yourself right, so you cursed and drove away the boss who wanted to support me. You gave me five hundred and asked me to love myself and live a good life.”
“But now…”
“Look at you. You are only an illegitimate daughter of the Green family.”
“You were abandoned by your boyfriend, disliked by your husband, and even out of work.”
“That’s fate.”
Lottie clutched her phone, “Did you set me up?”
“You came into the lounge yesterday to confirm where my wound was.”
“According to the script, Luke was supposed to press my right shoulder, but he pressed my left shoulder.”
“Yes!”
Before Lottie finished, she was interrupted by Isobel.
“You were trapped in the lounge last night. It was my plan.”
“I know that you’ve been afraid of the darkness since that night five years ago, so I did it on purpose.”
“You can’t fight against me.”
Lottie took a deep breath and glanced at the phone screen. The call was being recorded. She gritted her teeth and said, “Isobel, I wrote biographies of every role you played before to guide you.”
“I haven’t done it this time. Do you have to be so angry and even set me up?”
Isobel snorted, “I don’t need any reason to make a fool of you.”
“Don’t think so highly of yourself. I’ve found another person to replace you.”
“I just want to bully you, can’t I?”
“You can.”
Lottie snorted. “But let’s see what will happen.”
Then Lottie hung up the phone.
How dare she hang up?
Isobel held the table corner and ordered the assistant on the side, “Hire more netizens to abuse Lottie as harshly as they can.”
“Isobel, we have no need to do too much.”
Luke came over, held Isobel in his arms, and felt pity for Lottie, “I’m afraid that she cannot stand it and commit suicide.”
Isobel rubbed against Luke’s chest with her head and said in a charming voice, “She is very tough. If not, she would have died in the car accident.
Thinking of that, Luke sighed, “You’re right.”
“But…”
He lowered his head and kissed Isobel on her forehead. “If you want to ruin her life, why don’t you reveal her scandal?”
That scandal could lead to her downfall.
“I cannot make it public at my will.”
Isobel rolled her eyes, “Rexwell is not large. Others can find it out without much effort.”
“Her baby is not dead. If that scandal broke, her baby’s family may protect her since she is the mother. I won’t run this risk.”
…
Lottie received a call from Noel.
“Because of the news about you, some reporters are tailing after Natalia and take photos. She asks you to come over.
“Natalia decides to let them follow if they want.”
“Natalia will take you to the hospital.”
“Isobel could whip up the public opinion. We can also do that.”
