Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 396



Chapter 396

Leaning against the wall, Tracy looked to one side and said after thinking for a while, "In the situation of Archer Family at that time, my brother urgently needed a large sum of transit funds. If my mother didn't die, he could not get the money. That's why he has a bad idea."

"How did you know that?"

"I overheard a conversation between him and a doctor. It seemed that someone found a batch of unqualified urine tubes in the hospital as a patient had been infected, so those urine tubes were ready to be returned. As a result, my brother asked the doctor to find an inferior urine tube for my mother to use."

When Tracy spoke, there was a look of guilt on her face.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

She lowered her head and wiped her tears. "In fact, I tried to persuade him at that time, but he didn't listen to me and offered more shares for me to ask me to shut up. At that time, I was also possessed by the devil..."

Speaking of this, Tracy whimpered even louder, "I've been regretting it for so many years. I already knew I was wrong..."

Looking at Tracy, my heart was filled with incomparable hatred.

However, at the same time, something also came to me.

'As long as I find evidence, I can prove that Jeremy and his companion are the people who killed his mother. It may be helpful for me!'

"What's the name of the doctor?" I asked.

"Let me see..." Tracy thought for a moment and shook her head. "I don't remember. He is the attending physician of my mother. But I remember there was a report that he had been promoted to vice-director."

I slept in Rosy's bedroom that night. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

I had a dream. It was the first time I came to the Archer Family and saw Rosy when I was 19.

She sat on the big sofa in the living room, smiling at me with a face full of love.

She also stretched out her hand to pull me to her side, touched my hand, and said, "You will be my granddaughter in the future, and you will no longer be an orphan."

When I woke up again, my pillow was wetted.

"Grandma."

Sitting on the bed, I looked at the photo of Rosy on the opposite side, who smiled so amiable.

Tracy didn't wake up until nearly 11 a.m., and I had already gone out to eat breakfast.

As soon as she got up, she pulled me and said, "Let's go to change the Property Ownership Certificate."

When she said this, Tracy's tone was obviously probing, as if she was afraid that I would regret it.

I shook my head, "Let's go."

Tracy came here in a car. She drove me to my house at No.1 City Y.

The Property Ownership Certificate of my house was originally in that house, but the key was in Patrick's house.

Although I didn't bring the key, there should be servants at this time in Patrick's house.

I told Tracy to wait downstairs while I went upstairs alone.

Originally, I thought there were only servants at home. However, when I opened the door, Patrick was standing in front of the French window and making a call.

When he saw me, the expression on his face, which had been serious for a second, suddenly became excited. He came over and opened his arms to hold me tightly.

"Where have you been! I can't contact you for a whole night. I was so anxious!"

He held me tightly, as if I would disappear.

I stood there. For a moment, I could not wrap my head around it. It took me a moment to think before I realized what was going on.

I didn't bring my phone.

I looked at Patrick and shook my head. "It's all right. I just promised to exchange for her house with Tracy."

"Exchange for her house?"

Patrick straightened up and looked at me with some doubts.

"Yes." I nodded. "Tracy wanted to sell granny's house, so I wanted to exchange my house with her. So, granny's house won't be sold."

After hearing what I said, Patrick looked a little unhappy. "Isn't your current house a gift from your grandmother? Won't it be better if I buy the old house for you?"

"No." I knew he would say that, and I shook my head quickly. "I want to solve the problem on my own."

I can't depend on Patrick for everything, can I?

I have to rely on myself.

Patrick frowned slightly. "Why? I hope you can rely

on me."

"But I hope I can rely on myself." I looked up at him and said with some uncertainty, "After all, you may not be able to help me for a lifetime. I have to be independent."

When I said this last sentence, my voice was so low that I almost couldn't hear it clearly.

However, Patrick seemed to hear it very clearly. The man's hand clutched my arm tightly, and his handsome face approached me. His look became more and more solemn. "What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly change into another person overnight?"

I looked into his eyes and had no intention of avoiding him. "It's okay, it's okay, I'll take my bag and go down first, otherwise, Tracy won't keep waiting for me."

"I'll go with you," Patrick said firmly.

"All right."

I didn't object. I know it's of no use to be against him, and he'll insist on going with us.

I took my bag and went downstairs with Patrick.

Tracy was waiting in the underground garage. When she saw Patrick, her eyes suddenly lit up. She immediately came over and said, "Mr. Cowell."

Patrick just nodded slightly, but he didn’t mean to talk to her.

Tracy didn't feel snubbed either. She continued, "Long time no see. Time hasn't left any traces on you. Your demeanor is truly..."

"Come on, let's go to my house first."

I interrupted Tracy's words.

Her words reminded me over and over again that Patrick had ever been together with Caroline.

We walked to my house. I took the elevator to go up, and Patrick followed me. When I reached the upper floor, I did not look at my door at first, but at Shelton's door.

Shelton and I started from being neighbors.

Then I thought perhaps everything was not just a coincidence.

It was planned by him.

I walked out of the elevator and opened the door with the key. Then I went in and found the Property Ownership Certificate.

There was a black cloth bag put together with the Property Ownership Certificate, which stores the pink necklace that Patrick had given me.

I hesitated for a moment, and then put it into my bag.

This necklace was so expensive. Maybe I could help Patrick by selling it.

When I went out, Patrick was waiting at the door. He looked at me with a solemn face. "Have you made up your mind? If you don't want to sell it, I can..."

"Go ahead." I interrupted him. "I don't want to live next door with him anymore."

'He' means Shelton.

Patrick heard what I said and didn't say anything else.

He accompanied me to the Real Estate Bureau with Tracy and changed the Property Ownership Certificate under each other's names.

I handed the key to Tracy.

Tracy did the same. She had given me all the keys to Rosy's old house, which consist of dozens of keys including spare keys and those for each room.

I put them away and said, "I'm going to move my belongings this afternoon. After that, I'll leave the key in the property management and you can get it yourself."

As soon as she heard that I was going to move something, Tracy immediately said, "Don't move the furniture. I've also kept all the furniture in the old house for you."

"I see."

Tracy didn't leave the furniture for me out of good intentions, she just didn't want to bother herself to move that.

At noon, Patrick had the meal together with me, and then went to the company to have a meeting.

I returned to the No.1, City Y again, which had not belonged to me anymore, to pack things up.

No matter clothes or daily necessities, most of them were new.

They were bought by Shelton.
