Her Sensational Return with Triplets After Six Years novel Chapter 79

Chapter 79 Don't Call Me Lisa

When Bethany heard that, she paused for a few seconds before she came back to her senses.

"Stay here for a while. I'll fetch a glass of water for you." Bethany made an excuse and went out.

After she left, Raymond tossed his head, trying to sober up.

"Mr. Zavala." At this moment, Ainsley quietly pushed open the door and entered the room. Raymond rose at the sight of her and greeted her politely, "Hi, Ainsley."

Raymond had forgotten that Ainsley was there. It was embarrassing to sleep in the room when he was drunk.

"It's getting dark. Please stay for dinner." Ainsley said warmly, "Although I'm not as good as those chefs of yours, my cooking is not bad. After all, I've cooked for so many years. Mr. Zavala, you can have a taste."

Raymond said, "Thank you, Ainsley. I'm sorry for troubling you."

After Raymond spoke, Ainsley smiled lightly. She thought he was polite.

Ainsley looked back at Bethany, who was still in the living room. She turned to Raymond and asked directly, "Mr. Zavala, will you marry Lisa?"

This question...

Raymond was wondering how he should answer the question. Could he say his proposal had been refused?

Looking at his disturbed face, Ainsley smiled again and said, "If you love her, treat her well. I'm not exaggerating. Lisa is a very good girl, and it takes good luck to marry her. She's kind, beautiful, and intelligent. Many men are courting her."

Raymond believed her. He gathered some information from her words. "You call her Lisa. Is it her pet name?"

His question surprised Ainsley. Bethany's real name was Melisa Hamilton, and Ainsley had been calling her Lisa since infancy. She continued to call her Lisa after the latter changed her name.

"Yes." Seeing that Bethany hadn't told Raymond the truth, Ainsley had to tell a lie. "It's her pet name."

At this moment, Bethany entered the room with a glass of water. Ainsley quickly said, "Lisa, please take care of Mr. Zavala. I'm going to make dinner. When dinner's ready, I'll come to call you."

After she spoke, Ainsley went out to the kitchen and made dinner.

Raymond quickly explained, "Ainsley asked me to stay for dinner."

"You're lucky. Ainsley is much better than those chefs of yours." As she spoke, Bethany handed him the water.

Raymond took a sip of water and looked at her. "Lisa."

At the mention of the name, Bethany shuddered and looked at him in shock.

Apart from her dad and Ainsley, only Adriel had ever called her Lisa.

"What did you call me just now?"

"Lisa. Ainsley said it was your pet name."

Bethany let out a sigh of relief. Raymond said, "Lisa? It's a nice name. I'll call you Lisa from now on."

"No!" Bethany said loudly. She didn't want any man to call her Lisa again.

Bethany had overreacted. It was her subconscious reaction. When she saw the surprised look on Raymond's face, she quickly regained her composure and said, "You'd better call me Bethany."

Raymond didn't know why she overreacted. His intuition told him it was not that simple.

"By the way, Nolan came to see me today." Bethany quickly changed the subject. "He showed me Mrs. Shepard's physical checkup result. It's gastric cancer."

"Is it indeed cancer?"
