Chapter 21 My Newlywed Wife, Lottie Green
When she came out from the restaurant, a black Maserati parked outside.
Elijah let go of Lottie’s hand and sat directly in the front passenger seat.
Lottie felt helpless and could only open the door of the back seat.
On the leather seat in the back, Ralph was sitting there quietly and looking at the laptop in his hand. He was exuding a cold yet noble aura.
Although they had been married for quite some time, her heart still shivered whenever she saw his cold side face.
“Why are you here…”
Ralph did not look at her. He still focused on the laptop screen and his slender fingers were tapping on the keyboard gracefully, “Our son was created by someone. Of course, I have to visit the police station in person, like his Dad.”
Lottie pursed her lips and sat in, “So you know it all?”
Ralph stopped working, turned his head, and stared at her with his dark pupils, “Do you think they could get a ten-carat diamond ring without my permission?”
Lottie silenced.
What he said made sense.
A ten-carat diamond ring was not cheap. Even though the Chapman family was rich, he would not give his five-year-old children so much pocket money.
“So, you know it too?”
Ralph folded the laptop and leaned back comfortably on the leather seat. With a faint gaze, he said, “Josiah has checked it out. What happened yesterday is related to your sister.”
“But she is smart. She has cut off all the connections with the man, and even the phone number which was used to contact Miller was registered under Arthur’s name.”
Lottie clenched her hands tightly.
Her guess was right.
Claudia was related to the matter that happened yesterday!
His voice was low but it eased her nervous heart, “We have been married not long, so I can’t suppress your father because of something which I have no full evidence of. Firstly, it does not make sense, and secondly, it is not good for you.”
Lottie’s heart got warmed suddenly.
Ralph was always being cold to her.
She had never thought he would be so considerate.
He not only investigated what happened to her yesterday, and he even considered the impact on her once he suppressed the Green family…
She pursed her lips and looked up to meet his depthless eyes, “Thank you…”
“Lottie, he’s your husband, so you don’t have to say thanks to him.”
As soon as Lottie finished speaking, Elijah who sitting in the front seat spoke lightly, “And there is no need for you to thank him.”
“It’s Fabian’s idea to revenge for you and I designed the whole process. Daddy didn’t do anything except providing a ring and 20 thousand dollars.”
Lottie was speechless.
Ralph raised his eyebrow, “Without my support, can you guys go so smoothly?”
“Yes, we can.”
Elijah’s immature voice sounded quite resolute, and it was definitely not something he should have at his age, “If I tell grandfather that I want to buy a ring for Lottie under your name, he will definitely agree.”
Ralph squinted slightly and stopped talking.
Lottie was stunned there.
Did Elijah make Ralph speechless?
She carefully peeked at the man next to her with the corner of her eyes.
He was leaning on the leather seat and closed his eye for a doze.
Maybe he was really tired, or just he could find no more words to argue with Elijah.
The car started.
Lottie’s cellphone started to ring constantly.
It was a news reminder.
When she was with Luke before, she was worried every day that he could be defamed. So, she developed a good habit of watching the news every day.
At the moment, the atmosphere in the car was dull, so she picked up her cellphone and checked some news.
Unexpectedly, it was about Claudia!
“Breaking news! The daughter of the Green family defrauded a minor to steal his parent’s diamond ring!”
“The ten-carat diamond ring was stolen? A wealthy daughter actually did this.”
“Discuss rationally. How to convict her of instigating a minor to steal?”
…
There were all kinds of news about Claudia defrauding minors on the internet.
Someone posted a previous video in the restaurant.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Someone even released the chat log of Claudia and Fabian.
Lottie clicked into the chat screenshot, and read them one by one…
The more she read, the more she was getting angry!
Claudia was really not wronged of being charged with this accusation!
In the chat log, she asked Fabian for money more than once.
Other than Fabian concealed his age, everything else was asked by Claudia!
She even said to Fabian, “Your mother is so old, so the diamond ring will be wasted on her finger.”
“Give it to me. You have such a rich family, so your parents won’t be angry if they find out.”
Lottie clenched the cellphone, and the anger in her chest was burning.
Although she knew it was Fabian and Elijah leading Claudia into a trap on purpose, these contents made Lottie furious.
Arthur said before that Claudia grew up in the slum with those bad girls who brought her bad habits.
Even she was back to the Green family now, she was still disgusting as before!
Lottie felt very pleased when she saw the curses to Claudia on the internet.
Soon, they arrived at the police station.
When they just got out of the car, Lottie saw Kevin’s car park not far away.
It seemed that Claudia’s matter was a big mess, so even Kevin came to the police station.
“I’ll stay here.”
On the front passenger seat, Elijah opened the laptop and wore the headphone, “Fabian and I also won’t go in or make trouble.”
“Ok.”
Ralph who had been dozing off opened his eyes and opened the car door gracefully to get out of the car.
Lottie got off the car quickly and followed him.
“Sir, please check it carefully. That is impossible!”
“My daughter is so kind and innocent. How could she do such a thing!”
In the police station, Eira cried helplessly, “It must be the kid who is on purpose!”
“My daughter would not do such a thing!”
“The evidence is conclusive!”
The policeman on the side scolded with an indifferent tone, “Your daughter is still not willing to take off the ten-carat diamond ring now!”
Eira wiped her tears and looked at Claudia, “Claudia, just…”
“No!”
Claudia lowered her head and held the diamond ring in her hand tightly, “Even if this is a kid’s gift, it is also a gift. There is no reason to give the gift back.”
“You’re not receiving a gift. You are instigating and defrauding.”
A husky and low voice sounded.
Claudia and Eira quickly raised their head, and they saw an arrogant and noble man in a crowd.
He was walking towards them with his long legs.
Claudia’s eyes widened.
Wasn’t this…
Wasn’t this man the man in the photo that the kid sent her?
When she first saw the photo, she was so fascinated by him, so she started online dating the little kid even without giving deep thinking.
But now, she realized that he was even more handsome and noble than he was in the photo after seeing him in real life!
The arrogant and noble aura exuded from Ralph made her bewitched…
“Such a handsome guy.”
Eira lowered her voice and sighed.
“Mr. Chapman.”
The policeman next to them greeted Ralph politely, and turned back to glanced at Eira and Claudia, “This is Mr. Chapman, the father of Fabian Chapman.”
“If you don’t want to make a big mess, just talk to him.”
After he finished speaking, the policeman turned and left.
Claudia looked at Ralph until she forgot to take a breath.
Eira pinched her to get her back to her sense. She stammered and said, “Hi, Mr. Chapman, are you married?”
After she finished asking this, Claudia regretted it.
His kid was so big, so how could he not get married?
Ralph indifferently showed a meaningful smile, “I just got married recently.”
After he finished speaking, he pulled over the woman who followed behind him and said, “This is my newlywed wife, Lottie Green.”
