His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1187

It was already dark when Ralph returned to the Riggs Manor. Images of his mother getting pushed into the emergency room filled his mind. He had gone out for drinks to drown them out and was stumbling into the house, drunk.

As soon as he entered the door, Hannah was already waiting for him with a darkened expression. When she noticed he was drunk, she became even more unhappy. "Why are you back so late? I've called you so many times. Why didn't you answer my calls?"

"I didn't hear it." He had been drinking at a bar. The loud music blocked out any sounds from his phone, and he did not bother to check it either.

"Where did you go? Did you visit that woman again? She doesn't want you anymore. Why do you keep wanting to see her?!" Hannah was furious.

She already had a rough idea of where he went. She was upset after hearing that he had dropped by the hospital today. Now that he was home late and drunk, she was about to lose her mind.

Hannah was secretly delighted after the Russell family meeting the other day. In the past, she felt that Ralph was on a pedestal. Although he liked her, there was still a gap between them. She was an orphan, unwanted by her parents, and she lived in the shadows all her life. On the other hand, Ralph was a carefree man who his mother loved dearly.

However, ever since that day, she felt she was finally on par with Ralph.

Ralph’s life was not as picture-perfect as it seemed, and he had no idea who his parents were. The mother who always seemed to love him so much had abandoned him at the most crucial moment. All the love proclamation she had for him was all hypocrisy.

Now he only had Hannah, and she only had him. They were reliant on each other, and this was perfect for Hannah.

Albeit so, she was starting to feel uneasy again. She could feel that Ralph's heart was wavering. He still wanted to return to the Russell family. As long as he had a chance, he would go back to them.
