His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1115

Ralph was late due to the delay in talking with Margaret. When he arrived at Riggs Group and called Hannah’s office upstairs, Chloe told him Heather had left long ago. He could not help feeling annoyed.

He thought Heather was lying to him again and searched the parking lot for a long time but did not see Rigg’s family’s car. He anxiously waited downstairs until dark, but he did not see Heather even when all the employees had left.

‘What a capricious woman.’ Ralph felt resentful.

Hannah was not feeling any better on her end. She wanted to wait for him but did not see him even after buying time at the office. Ralph did not give her any phone calls; she dared not take the initiative to call him and could only wait.

She waited but only received Heather’s call urging her to return. She could not bide time any longer and could only go home. Along the way, she looked out of the window firmly. Even so, she did not see his figure, and her eyes were full of disappointment.

Hannah keenly sensed that the atmosphere was tense as soon as she entered the house. She calmed down and walked toward Heather, calling, “Heather.”

Heather looked at the time and said with displeasure, "Your heart has gone wild. I let you out for a while, and you’re having fun again. You don’t want to come back anymore, right?"

Heather had overslept and realized it was already afternoon when she woke up. Then she discovered that Hannah had still yet to return. Heather knew her sister should not need that much time to deal with the company matters and concluded that Hannah had been wandering around.

"N-No, Heather. I stayed in the office and didn’t go anywhere else. I was handling work at the office. I-If you don't believe me, you can call someone to check or look at the surveillance footage." She spent the whole morning in the Riggs Group. She did not even step outside.

Heather snorted at her and said, "I don’t need you to teach me. I will check it."

She knew Hannah was telling the truth when Hannah said she did not leave the office today. Even so, Heather was suspicious of her sister at the moment. She raised her eyebrows and asked casually, “Did Ralph call you?”

"No." Hannah shook her head and quickly added before Heather threw an inevitable fit, “He called looking for you."

Heather pursed her lips and suppressed her anger, "Did you meet with him?"

Hannah lowered her eyes and answered, "No. I just made a phone call. He said he would like to cooperate with you and asked if you had figured it out."

"What did you say after that?"

"I said I couldn't agree to such a big thing over the phone. Ralph said he wanted to meet up, but I said I didn't have time. So I didn't see him."

Heather frowned and said, "Why did you say you can’t agree over the phone? Is this something that can be agreed upon by meeting in person? You still want to cause me trouble for this kind of thing?"

Hannah bit her lower lips and said, "I don't know what cooperation he was referencing or your decision, so I didn't dare to agree or refuse. I could only delay the answer. I will refuse him next time if you don't want to see him."

Her words successfully extinguished most of Heather's anger.
