Chapter 240 Why Can't She Attend?
Chapter 240 Why Can't She Attend?
Lottie was amused by his serious expression.
She turned her face away from him, but there was a wry smile in her voice. "I’m barely satisfied."
"Mrs. Chapman is really jealous."
The man walked over with a chuckle and sat down beside her. He picked her up and got her seated on
his lap. "But you are still pretty when you are jealous."
Lottie pursed her lips. "Hmph!"
In fact, she had already seen that Ralph was not interested in Yvonne.
Otherwise, she would not have let it go so easily.
Thinking of this, she turned her head and glanced resignedly at the man who was holding her. "You still
have a question to answer."
"Why are you going to take her to the banquet?"
Ralph smiled. "Do you mind?"
Lottie nodded. "I do mind!"
"I'm your wife. Why not take me but her?"
Ralph turned her face and forced her to look at him. "Because I don't think you need to attend some
banquets."
Lottie curled her lips. "Why?"
"Because business banquets, especially those in Odense, are about business and work. They are
boring."
"Then why can Yvonne attend?"
"Because she is Eddy’ secretary, and she knows many businessmen in Odense."
As the man spoke, he gently rubbed Lottie's head. "This isn't Rexwell. I've just arrived here, so I need a
guide to introduce me to the businessmen in Odense."
Lottie's brows gradually relaxed.
She lowered her head and curled her lips silently. "But I don't like Yvonne."
"Do you have to have her as your guide?"
Ralph shook his head. "Actually, the guide I chose at the beginning was Eddy."
But he said that he hated to attend such occasions, so he sent his secretary, Yvonne, to accompany
Ralph to the banquet at night.
It was just a trivial matter.
However, Ralph hadn't thought that Yvonne and her friends would exaggerate it as the evidence of his
pursuit of Yvonne.
What was even worse was that these women would have been bold enough to say in front of Lottie that
he and Yvonne were a perfect match.
If it hadn't been for his wife, Lottie, who was virtuous and gentle, this matter wouldn't have ended so
easily.
"Since Eddy can be your guide, ask him to introduce you to others at night."
She bit her lip. "I'll be your female companion and go with you!"
If Yvonne could attend the banquet, why couldn't she?
"But the banquet will be really boring. Do you really want to go?"
Lottie nodded seriously. "Yes, I do!"
"All right."
The man chuckled and sighed. He put her aside and began to eat.
Lottie rested her cheeks between her hands as she watched him eat. She was then distracted until the
man stuffed a piece of rib into her mouth.
She paused, swallowed the rib, and glared at him. "You scared me."
"Coward."
The man smiled faintly. "Why did you suddenly bring me food at this time?"
"Because Connie went on a date with Alfred."
"It was boring for me to cook at home alone. Elijah suggested that I come to you, so I came."
After that, she changed to a comfortable position and leaned on the sofa. "Honey, do you think Alfred is
reliable?"
"I always feel that he is to hurt Connie."
Ralph frowned lightly. "It's not that bad. At most, there's no affection."
As he elegantly ate, he said indifferently, "In fact, apart from the fact that he always wants to take away
my wife, he is not bad."
"Considering that a single man can adopt Stella in an orphanage, raise her to five years old and look
after her very well..."
"He is actually a kind man."
"Moreover, though in the complicated entertainment industry, he can remain chaste. He has reached
the top, but he is not promiscuous. This proves that he's a man of principle and calmness."
"The most important thing is..."
The man smiled. "He's likely to be my cousin."
"I believe his nature should be similar to mine."
Lottie curled her lips. "But I always feel that Connie is going to suffer."
The last time Alfred came her home, he wanted her to leave Ralph and go with him.
But then he confirmed his relationship with Connie the time when he left the villa.

Connie had been single for many years and had never fallen in love with anyone.
Her first love was like this. Lottie was really distressed and restless. She was afraid that Connie would
be hurt.
"But you need to change your mind."
"It's not a bad thing for her to have her idol as her first boyfriend."
After saying that, Ralph's lips curled into a smile as he sized up her clothes. "Are you going to buy a
dress yourself, or do you want me to accompany you?"
Lottie paused for a moment before remembering that she had talked Ralph into letting her attend the
banquet.
The jeans and white T she was wearing now were indeed not suitable for the banquet.
"I'd better go by myself!"
She did not want to hinder Ralph from working because of her own matters.
Besides, as for evening dresses...
Even if he went with her, as a man, he would not give her any good advice.
Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and stood up. "Is there a shopping mall nearby?"
Ralph nodded. "I'll ask Sean to find someone to drive you there later."
At three o'clock in the afternoon.
Lottie was in the largest shopping mall in Odense.
Afraid that she would be bored shopping alone, Ralph had specially asked Eddy to arrange for two
women to accompany her.
However, when she got in the car, she recognized the two women were two of those who had just
flattered Yvonne in the elevator.
Getting out of the car, Lottie let out a long sigh of relief and turned to the two women behind her. "Will
you two feel wronged if you accompany me shopping?"
The two women's faces turned red.
Finally, they walked forward and bowed to Lottie. "Mrs. Chapman, we are very sorry!"
"It was Yvonne who kept misleading us. She said that Mr. Chapman invited her to be his female
companion at the banquet tonight because he was pursuing her. Everyone began to flatter her, so
we..."
Seeing the two women apologize seriously, Lottie chuckled and said, "Well, remember not to follow
others so easily in the future."
Then she took them into the mall.
Although there had been some misunderstanding between the two women and Lottie due to Yvonne
earlier, after they began chatting, they discovered that Lottie was much easier to get along with than
Yvonne. They started to talk more with her.
The three of them visited shops one by one and finally agreed on a pink evening dress in a night dress
store. They had the same aesthetic standard.
As she was about to ask the sales lady about the size, a c female voice came. "Miss, that pink one. I
want it."
Lottie frowned and looked in the direction of the voice.
At the entrance of the evening dress store, Yoyo stood with her arms crossed, superciliously.
