Spoiled By My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 645 He Had a Sharp Tongue

"What's going on? Why are you arguing and fighting?"

Lottie hurried over and pulled Connie aside as she looked at Ian.

Connie's eyes were red. She was the one who started the fight, but she seemed to cry the next

second. Lottie knew her very well. She would not attack unless she was attacked.

Lottie seemed to be talking to Connie, but she was staring at Ian, worrying that he would fight back. Ian

tilted his head but did not say a word.

Connie didn't want to repeat Ian's words. After all, he was Ralph's brother. Lottie would be sad if she

heard what Ian had said. Therefore, Connie said to Lottie intensely, "It's not my fault." Lottie believed

Connie, but she was the one who started the fight. She had to explain it, hadn't she? © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"What happened?" Seeing both of them refuse to say anything, Lottie turned to the kids for help.

Stella was also shocked by their arguing. She kept shaking her head.

They had been in the front room so they hadn't heard the cause of their argument except that they

swore at each other. Auntie Connie kept on calling Uncle Ian an idiot, but Uncle Ian said that Auntie

Connie was rude and that no one would marry her.

Fabian said, "Auntie Connie suddenly got angry and said Uncle Ian was unreasonable. Uncle Ian said

Auntie Connie was unreasonable and Uncle Barton was blind, so Auntie Connie hit Uncle Ian."

Having listened to the whole story, Lottie was speechless.

Ian really had a sharp tongue. Why did he refer to Alfred? No wonder Connie got angry.

Moreover, as a man, how could he argue with a girl? It’s not gentlemanly at all.

Fortunately, Ralph was not like him.

Lottie ridiculed Ian inwardly as she looked at him.

"Ian, did you really say that to Connie? Anyway, she is a girl. Would that be..."

Ian raised his head, but his eyes were cold. He knew Lottie would never ask about the real reason. She

would just label him as a man who bullied women.

He sneered, "So what? She also swore at me."

"Then why did you two quarrel all of a sudden? I know Connie very well. She is not a person who

makes trouble for no reason."

"Do you mean I'm that kind of person?"

"That's not what I mean..."

Lottie felt a little helpless. She just wanted to find out the reason for their argument.

Ralph told her to treat Ian with a normal attitude, so she didn't choose her words carefully. Now this

attitude seemed to have aroused Ian's dissatisfaction.

"You've taken your side. Why are you pretending to be fair now?" Ian sneered with a gloomy

expression. Lottie was stunned.

Connie pulled Lottie aside. She pointed at Ian and said, "What's wrong with you? Do you have a tin

ear? I slap you, so you can direct your anger at me, but there's no need to get Lottie involved."

Ian ignored Connie and said coldly, "Since you don't like me, I’m leaving now."

Lottie found Ian a bit dramatic. Before she could say anything to keep him stay, Ralph's voice came

from behind. "What's the matter?"

Lottie said resigned. "Ralph..."

"Ralph, I'm going home." Ian interrupted Lottie. He looked a little lonely.

Ralph frowned slightly, "Ian, you eat alone in your apartment. Why not stays for lunch?"

Ian took a glance at Lottie. "No, thanks. I'll only make everyone unhappy if I stay. I'd better go home

and have whatever for lunch."

Raloph raised his eyebrows. "You're my brother. Who will be unhappy if you stay?"

Ian shook his head, insisting on leaving.

Ralph had to say, "Then I won't force you. But Lottie has prepared lots of food. How about taking some

with you? Don't eat instant food at home."

Lottie wanted to say something, but hesitated.

Ian said, "No, don't bother."

Ralph insisted. He said, "Lottie, pack some food into a thermos for Ian."

Lottie saw Ralph gently nod at her and understood what he meant. She nodded and said, "A moment

please." She turned and headed for the kitchen and dragged Connie away.

After a while, Lottie returned with a thermos filled with delicious food.

Ralph took the thermos and handed it to Ian.

"Ian, don't take what happened today to heart. We'll treat you the next time you come."

Pressing his lips, Ian nodded and said, "Alright."

"If you don't want to cook, you might as well move to live with us. Or I can hire a chef for you. Anyhow,

take good care of yourself." Ralph said to Ian, his eyes filled with concern for him.

Ian felt warm inwardly. However, when he saw Lottie, his gaze grew even gloomier.

"I know. I'll come around and see you some time."

"Let's go. Let me show you out."

The two men talked as they walked out of the door.

Connie did not return to the living room. Instead, she went straight to the dining room.

When Lottie saw Ralph and Ian leaving, she went to ask Connie about what had happened.

"What happened just now? Why did you argue with him?"

Connie had already started eating and was even using a serving spoon to pick up food for Stella.

Hearing Lottie's question, she sneered. She felt that Ian was rather mean. She had wanted to complain

to Lottie, but putting herself in Lottie's shoes, Connie kept it to herself. No matter how bad Ian was, he

was still Ralph's brother. If conflicts arose between Ralph and Lottie because she said something about

him, Connie would feel guilty.

She had heard of countless good marriages ruined by domestic trivia.

The perfect love between Lottie and Ralph shouldn't be spoiled by Ian.

"Nothing. He's just too macho. I don't like him."

"Just this?" Lottie found it ridiculous. "Is there some misunderstanding between you guys? I don't think

Ian is such an ungentlemanly person."

"Would a normal gentleman quarrel with a woman?"

"But you slapped him and he chose to pass over it."

"Did he pass over it? He's too embarrassed to bicker with me! How could he be so ungraceful?" The

more Connie thought about it, the unhappier she became. She took a big bite of the chicken wing as if

it were Ian's head.

"Okay, forget him. I'll avoid him in the future, okay?"

Once again, Connie chose to deal with the bad emotions by herself.

She served Lottie some food. "Anyway, I don't think Ian is very upright. You'd better be cautious in the

future."

Lottie shook her head. She felt that Connie might still be angry that she gave such an evaluation of Ian.

She didn't really take it to heart.
