Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 130

It turned out that Roger was driving Patrick's car.

I remembered that there were many sports cars in the garage of the bridal chamber Patrick had bought for him and Caroline.

But he never drove the sports cars at ordinary times.

Seeing that I didn't move, Roger said, "Aren't you also a common citizen? You should be very good at handling this kind of thing. Help me deal with her!"

The way I saw it, the index of Roger's emotional intelligence was probably a negative number.

How come he, who was asking for my help, talk like that?

I rolled my eyes at him and said, "No."

Then I was ready to leave directly.

Roger pulled me with one hand and said, "Don't leave, don't! I'll give you money! 500,000 dollars! What do you think of it? If you settle this matter for me, I'll give you 500,000 dollars!"

The onlookers were stunned.

" 500,000 dollars?"

"Oh my god! The rich are indeed different."

As the old lady who extorted Roger heard that he would give me 500,000 dollars if I could take care of her, she immediately cried and shouted, "Hey, come and see. Someone is being unreasonable here! He hit my leg and wanted to run away without paying me!"

But she didn't hold Roger with her hands any longer.

At this moment, everyone knew that the old lady was a blackmailer.

I took out my cell phone and started filming her directly. As I was filming her, I said to Roger, "500,000 dollars? Get on the car now, step on the accelerator, and drive her over. Then you will only have to pay two million dollars."

"What? Well..."

Seeing that Roger wanted to say something else, I immediately blinked at him.

Although Roger was insensible, he was somewhat quick-witted.

With a look of sudden enlightenment on his face, he said, "I see! Understood!"

After that, he got in the car directly.

I retreated and pushed the onlookers back, telling them to leave a way for Roger.

The old lady sat alone in front of the car and looked straight at the front of the car, feeling a little confused for a moment.

The sound indicating the sports car started rang.

The old lady seemed to intend to get up.

"Buzz!" Although the car didn't move, the old lady was so scared that she stood up and ran away!

I quickly took my cell phone and filmed the old lady's back view.

Roger put out the car engine and got out of the car. Then he looked at me with admiration and said, "Well done! Charlotte, Charlotte Archer, right? I didn't expect you to be so powerful!"

"500,000 dollars."

I spread my hands to him.

"I surely will mean my words." Roger happily ran to the car and took out a stack of checks, planning to write a check.

Originally. I was joking. But I didn't expect that Roger would take my words seriously and intend to give me a check.

I simply couldn't imagine what a rich man's world would be like.

Seeing that he tore off a check and wanted to give it to me, I waved my hand, "I don't want it. I'll be grateful to you if you don't pester Lisa in the future."

After that, I walked in the direction of the law firm.

As soon as I took two steps, I saw Michael and Shelton standing at the door and looking at me in unison.

When I came to the front of them, Michael first clapped his hands and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be such a bold and scheming person, Miss Archer."

"No, no."

I was just dealing with someone shameless in a rogue way. And I didn't expect to be seen by Michael and Shelton.

Shelton said to Michael, "Although Charlotte Archer looks like a home cat on the surface, she is actually a wild cat."

"Well, I agree."

The two of them teased me and went upstairs at the same time.

Shelton told me upstairs that he had checked the surveillance video of the Holy Spirit Hospital with his connections. It turned out that when Caroline intended to jump off the building that day, I left Rosy's ward. After that, a nurse went in there and then left in less than one minute.

They had already handed this matter over to the police.

At present, as long as it could be proved that my card had been stolen and that the money wasn't transferred out by me, I naturally would have my name cleared.

When I heard this, I suddenly remembered a thing, "Did you see on the monitor as for who woke my grandmother up and helped her to the rooftop?"

"Well... We didn't pay attention to it." Michael shook his head.

"Can you help me have a look at it?"

I looked at Shelton with a pleading look in my eyes.

He hesitated for a moment and agreed in the end.

I talked with Michael and Shelton for more than an hour. After we were done talking about what would happen in the next trial in court, I got up and left.

Shelton sent me off.

As soon as we arrived at the door of the law firm, we saw a familiar car parked there.

And the owner of the car, Patrick, was standing aside.

When he saw that I was with Shelton, he, who originally had a calm look on his face, became unhappy.

He walked quickly to us.

Judging from Patrick's face, I was sure that he would walk over and get angry at me. But when he was only one step away from me, he suddenly paused.

And he looked at me.

It seemed that he was brewing something.

After a while, he asked, "Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

"What?"

I thought that I had heard his words wrong.

Patrick's tone was faint and even a little gentle, which was completely inconsistent with the momentum that he had just walked over.

"Where are you going now? I'll send you there."

Patrick repeated his words again.

"You don't need to do that. I..."

When I subconsciously wanted to refuse Patrick, Shelton interrupted me, "Well, I have something to do. So I'll leave first."

After that, he left directly.

He didn't even say a word to greet Patrick. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

I looked at Shelton's back and then at Patrick, feeling that I was betrayed.

"Let's go." Patrick looked at me.

I wondered whether it was my illusion. But I felt that there was always something that I couldn't see through in Patrick's eyes.

Most of the time, people simply couldn't go against their wills.

I looked at Patrick. As he walked in the direction of the car, I followed him.

Looking at his tall and strong back, which blocked most of the sunshine, I felt that he looked like a wall.

Every time I thought that I had escaped, I found that I was just self-righteous.

It turned out that I had been standing in the center of the city.

I didn't leave at all.

When I came to my senses again, I was already in his car.

Patrick leaned over and reached out to fasten the seat belt for me. At that time, his face was very close to me. And he kept staring at my face with his deep eyes.

His eyes seemed to be a pool of clear water, which was light and shallow. And I could see through his mind at a glance.

He wasn't the Patrick I knew at all.

"Clatter!" After fastening the seat belt for me, Patrick turned to me and asked, "Where are you going for dinner? I'll accompany you."

I was stunned.

I looked at Patrick and saw that his eyes were the same as what I had seen just now.

There weren't any ultimate motives in his eyes.

It was as if what he was saying was exactly what he was thinking.

Seeing that I didn't answer, Patrick said again, "Charlotte Archer, I want to have dinner with you. After dinner, I will send you home."

"Why?"

I blurted out.

I always remembered that it was me who had begged him to marry Caroline. So I couldn't go back on my words.

"There is no why." Patrick looked at me and continued to ask, "What would you like to eat for dinner?"

"Sorry, I have to go to the company. So I probably can't go to dinner with you."

I wanted to have dinner with him in my heart. But I lied.

"Okay, I'll send you to the company." Patrick didn't say anything.

He straightened up and stepped on the gas pedal. Soon, we arrived at the downstairs of our company.

When I was about to get off the car, I told him, "I will work overtime here for a long time. And you don't have to wait for me, Mr. Cowell."

After that, I left.
