Chapter 52 Target
Chapter 52 Target
Lottie Green went back to her room and took a shower. Then she changed into some refreshing
clothes. Then she carried a backpack and followed Connie Houghton out.
When they were leaving, she even purposely walked over to the next room and knocked on the door, in
hopes to say hello to Ralph Chapman.
However, the door did not open even after she kept knocking on it for a long time.
When she was about to leave in confusion, the door opened.
Standing at the door was not Ralph, and it was not Sean Holland as well.
But it was a tall and handsome man.
At this moment, the man was wearing a light grey colored pajama, and with a lazy and impatient face,
“Any problem?”
Lottie looked at the man’s face and her brain went blank for a second.
She quickly and awkwardly apologized, “Sorry, I knocked on the wrong door.”
The man looked at her coldly. “Bang.” The door was closed.
Lottie felt so ashamed now.
It was an emergency last night, and this morning she went back to his room casually. She also thought
all the hotel rooms looked the same… she had knocked on the wrong room.
She let out a helpless sigh, “Maybe... Ralph’s room is right next to mine?”
When she turned around, she realized that Connie’s gaze was fixated on the door that closed behind
her.
“Lottie, that is… Alfred!”
“Who?”
“My idol! The best actor Alfred!“
Connie excitedly held Lottie’s hand, “The only reason I come here this time is just to see him!”
“He is the brand ambassador of the water park during the holiday seasons this year! He will attend a
function here these few days!”
Her voice trembled with excitement, “I cannot believe that Alfred is living next door to us!”
“He looks more handsome without make-up!”
“His sleepy face is so handsome! Oh my God! His charm almost killed me!”
Lottie rolled her eyes, “I do not think so.”
She thought no man was more handsome than Ralph.
After she finished her sentence, she pulled Connie’s hand away, walked over to Ralph’s door, and Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
knocked on the door.
The door opened after only being knocked on twice.
Sean smiled sheepishly in the doorway, “Mrs. Chapman, would you like to accompany Mr. Chapman?”
“I know you are kind and virtuous, so you surely will come to take care of Mr. Chapman!”
Lottie was speechless.
“I only came to say hello. I will go to the water park.”
Sean was disappointed.
“Take care of yourself.”
The deep voice of a man was heard from the room.
From Sean’s side gap, Lottie could clearly see that Ralph was sitting on the sofa, and his legs were
crossed elegantly.
He still looked distinguished and graceful.
Only with a silhouette, it was enough to make her heart beat so fast.
Her judgment was not wrong.
He really was more handsome than Alfred!
“Please take care of yourself. Do not tire yourself out too much!”
After blurting out these words, she pulled Connie and left quickly.
Looking at Lottie’s back as she went on the elevator, Sean closed the door and let out a sigh, “I thought
since Mr. Chapman is injured, Mrs. Chapman would not go out and play, but stay here and take care of
you.”
“But she did not hesitate to go and play.”
Ralph was leaning on the sofa said with a calm voice, “I am not injured that badly and I also don’t need
her to take care of me.”
“After all, I also hope that she goes out and takes a walk around.”
Sean curled his lip, “But you just said that you were hoping that Mrs. Chapman will stay and
accompany you…”
Ralph was holding a document with his hand and paused slightly.
He raised his head, and he looked at Sean with his deep eyes, “Did I?”
Ralph’s gaze was unsettling, and Sean quickly lowered his head, “N…no.”
After he responded, Ralph retracted his gaze and continued to look at his document.
Sean let out a long sigh.
His boss had been single for way too long.
Ralph evidently wanted someone to take care of him and accompany him, but he did not want to admit
it.
…
There were a lot of people at the water park.
Connie was wearing a bikini and she ran towards Lottie’s side while holding two water bottles, “We
made a deal to wear bikini together, but why are you wearing this?”
Lottie looked at the conservative clothes that she was wearing and took the water bottle in her hand,
“This does not look good on me?”
“No one set the rules that we must wear a bikini on the beach.”
Connie curled her lips, “But Lottie, you have such a hot figure, so you should show it to everyone.”
Lottie smiled but did not say anything.
She had her own reasons for not wearing a bikini.
Five years ago when she had a baby, it left some stretch marks on her belly and she had a scar from
her operation.
She did not know why but the baby was especially big.
The doctor that was examining her belly even playfully said, “With the size of your belly, I would say
there is a possibility that it is triplets.”
At that moment, Lottie smiled and told the doctor, “This baby must be very smart, seeming three times
smarter.”
However…
She let out a sigh. Lottie shook her head off those unhappy memories, and together with Connie, they
started to experience the various activities in the water park.
The whole day, it was either she was shouting, or she was listening to Connie shouting.
The two women used up the whole day and played on most of the rides in the water park.
After they went on the last ride, there were only a few people in the water park.
The two women went to the public washroom in the water park to have a shower.
“Sorry, I cannot find the target today. Maybe he did not come to the water park.”
Just as Lottie was going to shower, she heard someone outside coming into the showering area.
“Please be assured. The water park is now empty, so no one can hear that I am on the phone.”
The woman’s voice caused Lottie that was about to shower to pause slightly.
But the words that the woman said after that made Lottie sweat coldly.
She said, “I’m sure I have stabbed his shoulder last night.”
“He is already badly hurt, but he insists on enduring it and didn’t go to the hospital.”
“I know which hotel he is staying at, but the security is very strict, so I cannot find a way to go in.”
“Target the woman alongside him? How do you know he brought a woman with him?”
“Okay, please send me the picture of the woman.”
Lottie’s heart beat so fast.
So it should be…
The person that the woman was talking about should be Ralph Chapman?
Last night he was indeed stabbed in the shoulder, and he did not go to the hospital.
And the woman that she said she was going to target, and the woman alongside Ralph… It should be
her!
Thinking that the woman outside could be a killer, Lottie held her arms tightly.
Her whole body was curled up in the corner of the showering cubicle, and she did not dare say a single
word.
Outside, she could hear that the woman was still on the phone.
She did not know how long had passed, but she heard the showering area door being opened.
Following that, it was Connie’s loud voice, “Lottie! Are you done showering? Why are you taking so
long?”
“I have even finished a phone call with my parents, but you are still showering!”
‘No, we’re doomed.’
Inside the showering cubicle, Lottie helplessly let out a sigh.
At the same time Connie came in, the woman outside hung up.
“Who are you looking for?”
The woman had a cold face and a deep voice.
“I am looking for my friend.”
Connie said while knocking on the door, “Lottie, why are you taking so long!”
