Chapter 536 Be Strong
Connie cried for a long time before wiping away her tears.
"After I finished my mother's funeral, I took her ashes back to my hometown and buried her beside my
father."
Lottie thought for a moment. "Last spring?"
She remembered that during that period, Connie had been in a bad mood and went her hometown.
At that time, Lottie didn't have a good time. After she asked Connie several times and Connie said that
she was fine, Lottie stopped asking.
Thinking back, Connie at that time should need someone to comfort her.
Even if she gave Connie a hug, Connie would be much better.
Lottie became more and more regretful.
Connie nodded.
"After the funeral, I went to the city. I wanted to take back my things, but I found that the house had
been sold by Steve. He owed gambling debts outside. He ignored my mother's serious illness and sold
the house in order to pay the debt. He also took away what my mother left me."
Connie later found Steve. She could refuse the money, but she had to get her mother's letter and the
things her father left.
Those were the last things her parents left for her.
However, when Steve saw Connie, he had evil intentions again.
He suddenly remembered that he had a "daughter". Steve used the things left by her parents to force
Connie to sleep with him.
Connie was disgusted at the thought of his face.
During the dispute, Connie picked up a stone on the roadside and smashed it on Steve's head.
Steve was seriously injured that time, and then he fainted.
Connie took the opportunity to escape. When she returned to Rexwell, she panicked. She asked Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
someone to find out that Steve only stayed in the hospital for two months and went back. Then she was
relieved.
Although she hated Steve, she did not really want to kill him.
After returning to Rexwell, Connie finally had a relaxing life, but she still felt a little regretful. She felt
that she could not find her parents' things.
She didn't want to have anything to do with Steve at all. She also didn't expect that after Steve left the
hospital and lived alone for a while, he began to look for her.
Steve used to be a man of a noble family, so he had some connections. In addition, Connie had a good
relationship with famous Lottie. Finally, Steve still found Connie.
"He asked me to raise him. If I didn't agree, my mother's past as a mistress would be exposed and
would make me completely unable to survive in Rexwell."
After hearing this, Lottie frowned. "He only used pressure on you like this?"
Although Connie's mother looked down on the poor, she had never been a mistress when she was with
Steve. Logically speaking, Connie should not have been threatened.
Connie gave a wry smile and said, "He threatened me with my parents' things left for me."
"Anything else?"
Connie stopped talking.
"Did he find out about the relationship between you and Alfred, so he wants to threaten you with this to
obey him?"
Connie didn't say anything, but she acquiesced.
Lottie slammed her hand on the table.
"This is too infuriating!"
Steve was really shameless! It was not enough to harm Connie's family. How dare he ask for benefits?
He was really shameless.
Lottie was really angry. Why hadn't she beaten Steve fiercely before?
Connie quickly grabbed her hand.
"Don't tell Alfred about this, okay?"
Lottie frowned as she looked at Connie. "Why didn't you tell him? He has the right to know everything."
"No! He can't know these now!"
"You..."
"He is in the critical period of his career. If something happens, his career may be affected. I can't bear
such a big fault."
"How can this be considered your fault?"
"Lottie, take it that I'm begging you." Connie looked at Lottie with pleading eyes and said, "I want to
have a perfect match."
This should be Connie's sore spot.
She saw with her own eyes how her mother had begged for nothing and how she had witnessed her
mother's regret.
Connie knew that one day, when she was really with Alfred, it was not because she wanted to cure
Alfred's emotional injury, nor because she wanted to fulfill her dream. It was because they loved each
other and matched each other.
She wanted to wait until she could be equal to Alfred. When she was excellent enough to make his
fans accept her, she would be with Alfred.
Perhaps, this was just her own desire.
Perhaps, before she could realize her dream, Alfred had already met a better person.
Then she would not regret it.
She would silently bless Alfred, hoping that he would be happy all the time.
Lottie wanted to scold Connie, but when she saw her hope, she knew that it must be Connie's
insistence.
She could solve many things for Connie, but she could not intervene in her love at will.
"I see." Lottie said in a low voice. "I'll make a name for myself as soon as possible. You'll be the most
popular agent then. Everyone in the entertainment industry has to respect you. At that time, Alfred
won't dare to lose his temper at you."
Connie laughed foolishly after hearing that and reached out to hug Lottie.
"Thank you, Lottie. It's good to have you."
Lottie gave Connie a reproachful look. "Yeah. That's why you have to fight side by side with me."
Connie laughed loudly. Her eyes were swollen from crying, but her smile was still so bright.
"You're going to go with me tomorrow. If you're not in a good state, won't you let me lose face?" Lottie
pointed at her eyes.
Connie reached out to rub her eyes, but was grabbed by Lottie.
"Don't rub them with your hands. I'll cook an egg for you. Bring it over and apply it to your face. Then
apply a toning mask at night and have a rest early."
Lottie got up and went to the kitchen. Connie said to her from behind, "Lottie, I love you so much!"
Lottie rolled her eyes. "Go and love your Alfred. It's enough for me to have Ralph."
Connie was speechless. "Crazy."
"You can also be with Alfred."
"Forget it."
Connie admitted defeat.
Lottie glared at her. "You're really not brave."
While they were chatting and joking, their relationship returned to what it used to be.
They didn't say how to deal with Steve in the future, because Lottie knew that Connie must have her
own plan.
The most important thing was that she wanted Ralph to investigate Steve first.
Ralph had more means to deal with people.
It was late at night. After helping Connie remove the swelling, Lottie urged Connie to wash up and
sleep. After Connie fell asleep, she went to the study to find Ralph.
