Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 137

"It's impossible!" Caroline cried even harder, "Even if I lost my memory of the past three years, my memory before that is intact. I didn't forget anything. And I didn't remember it wrong!"

Speaking of this, she was almost choked with sobs!

As she cried, she covered the gauze on her head with her hands, "Woo, my head hurts so much. I surely won't remember anything wrong. You surely have said so..."

Caroline was crying so hard that the whole corridor was filled with the sound of her crying.

Finally, a nurse came.

As soon as she saw the situation, she was immediately unhappy, "The patient has just woken up. And her situation is unstable. Don't irritate her!"

"Yes..."

There was regret all over Gina's face.

The nurse went in and checked Caroline's situation. Then she said discontentedly, "You can go now. Don't stay here."

All three of us were driven out.

After coming out, Gina kept cursing me, "Charlotte Archer, you made my Caroline so miserable! Now she finally lost her memory. Why did you collude with Mr. Cowell to say so to her?"

"What else can I say?" I looked at Gina in confusion, "Should I say that to kick me out of the Archer Family as well as snatch the shares in my hands away, you worked together to ask me to marry Patrick on behalf of Caroline? But Patrick didn't fall for my trap. Instead, he fell in love with me."

"Won't it make the situation worse?"

I sneered.

"If she really loses her memory, tell her the truth as I said just now, I hope she can get rid of the hazy past as soon as possible and start a new life." Patrick paused as he said so, "If you need money, I can give you some."

"We don't need any money! We just want Caroline to be happy!" Gina said firmly, "Mr. Cowell, why don't you give Charlotte money and stay to accompany Caroline?"

"As for this matter, it can't be coerced," Patrick said.

"But they both look the same. Isn't it the same for you to be with either one of them?"

Gina didn't want to give up.

It seemed that she had started to speak without any deliberation.

Her words indeed amazed me.

Before I could refute, I heard Patrick say, "No, I don't think they are the same."

Patrick probably said so to annoy Gina.

But I was so happy.

Patrick took me in his arms and left.

By the time we arrived downstairs, a car had been parked downstairs.

At first, I thought that Wilson would drive. But when I came to the front of the car, I found a middle- aged driver in his forties sitting inside, who looked very mature and steady.

I asked casually, "How come it isn't Assistant Wilson?"

Patrick glanced at me and smiled faintly, "The things under his charge in the future have changed."

I didn't understand his words. But I didn't care.

The driver sent me to the company. I got off the car and sat in the office. Suddenly, I felt that my mood seemed to be different.

It probably had something to do with Patrick.

After all, if Caroline really lost her memory, then the relationship between the three of us would be renewed. Then Patrick and I probably could really...

"Charlotte Archer, what are you going to design for the intermediary match?"

When I was lost in my thoughts, Paulina's voice interrupted me.

"Ah?" I looked at her with a confused look.

She told me that the topic for the intermediary match had been sent out for several days, which was in the work mailbox now.

Only then did I click open my email.

Then I saw an email from the head office inside, whose title was the topic for the intermediary match.

I clicked the email open.

There was only one word behind the title inside, which read, "Hospital."

I couldn't help but smile.

I thought to myself, "What a coincidence. I've been in the hospital every day recently. I am indeed connected to the hospital closely."

"What are you laughing at? Isn't it a very simple topic for you?" Paulina said quietly, "Let me tell you. Don't take it lightly. It's difficult to deal with such a simple topic!"

"Hmm..." I nodded, raised my head, and asked quietly, "Will you also take part in the intermediary match?"

I remembered that when I saw the ranking list for the first time, she didn't seem to be in the top 50.

As soon as I said that, Paulina quietly said with a bitter face, "Ah? How come you don't know about it?"

"Hmm?" I said earnestly, "Last time I looked carefully at the list of the top 50, I didn't see you or me."

There was only one familiar name on the list back then.

And it was Raina Winston.

But now she was disqualified.

Paulina quietly pouted and said, "Alas, you don't care about me at all. I was ranked 51 at that time. And you were 52!"

As soon as I heard it, I was suddenly enlightened.

Two people did plagiarism at that time. And the other person who was lucky enough to enter the intermediary match was Paulina Carter.

Paulina wasn't shrewd at all.

She, who was leaning on the table, told me about her thoughts repeatedly. I, whose mind was blank, just echoed a few words.

However, since we were both in the intermediary match, even if we would be the last one, we had to work hard on it.

We would have money after we entered the final round.

As we were discussing quietly, Raina came over and rolled her eyes at us, "I advise you not to waste your efforts. Anyway, there are only six places available. And you two, who are always at the bottom, can't get in."

"Even so, we are better than the ones being disqualified because of the plagiarism!"

Paulina responded.

Raina's face instantly became ugly as she said, "Hum! It is just that some of the elements were the same! It's obvious that the referee was too narrow- minded! I wonder whether if it was because that they wanted make Charlotte pass the first round that they specifically made the two of us scapegoats!"

"A scapegoat?" I didn't want to bother with Raina at first. Since she said so, I naturally had to argue with her, "If you are not convinced, you can search it on the Internet. After all, your works and the one you copied are both on the Internet. We are all peers in the same industry. Whether you did plagiarism or not, everyone can see it."

"You!"

"Go and search it on the internet."

Raina knew that she was in the wrong.

And she left in a fit of anger.

As soon as Raina left, other people in the office began to talk about the fact that she, who had done plagiarism, thought that she was in the right.

In the following week, besides my work, I was busy with the design for the intermediary match.

Although Patrick was injured, he couldn't be more energized when he was pestering me.

In the end, I had no choice but to make a deal with him.

And the deal was that we could make love on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and that we surely had to rest on the other three days.

Patrick wasn't willing to compromise. But for the sake of the fact that I had to work on the design for the intermediary match, he could only agree.

Two weeks passed by.

In the past two weeks, my life was as usual.

On the day of the regular weekly meeting, I rushed to the company from a construction site. After the meeting, I was ready to return to the construction site.

I met Caroline at the door.

Her hair was loose. And she wore a hat on her head. The weather was hot. So she wore a beige long dress.

And she wore light makeup.

Her current look simply resembled that of her when she was in college.

In college, although she acted wildly, she indeed looked like a lady when she was dressed up.

When she saw me, she raised her hand slightly and called my name.

Although I was a little reluctant, I still walked over to her, feeling curious about whether she had indeed lost her memory or not.

As I got closer, I saw that there were still some scars on Caroline's forehead that hadn't been healed.

She saw me and smiled as her eyes became crescent- shaped. Then she said with affection, "Are you at work? Are you tired? Where are you going to eat in the afternoon? Do you want to have food with me?"

She asked me a few questions in a row all of a sudden.

"No, I still have something to do. If you want to tell me something, just say it."

I replied.

To be honest, no matter whether Caroline had lost her memory or not, many things had happened. And it was impossible for her and me to be who we had been in the past.
