Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 109



Chapter 109

"Why don't you have a try?" Shelton didn't flinch at all.

When the gangsters were hesitating, wondering whether to make a move or not, someone shouted, "Maurice, the patrol officers are coming here."

"F**k! You're lucky!"

After saying that, Maurice got on the motorcycle next to him.

Several gangsters left.

Shelton turned around.

"Thank you." I stood in front of Shelton, feeling a little embarrassed to be seen by him like this.

After that, I wanted to leave.

Shelton shouted at me from behind. "You don't even wear shoes. How are you going to walk?"

In fact, I had taken off my shoes while running. And there seemed to be glass on the road. At this time, it was stuck in my foot.

I didn't feel any pain when I was busy running

for my life just now. But after I stopped running, I felt a sharp pain in the soles of my feet before I could walk further.

"Get in the car," Shelton said gently.

Then he opened the door to the co-pilot's seat for me and got into the driver's seat.

After I went in the car, Shelton said first, "I'm sorry, my car is cheap after all. You may not feel as comfortable as you do in Patrick's car.

I responded quickly, "No, no, it's good."

Shelton started the car. As soon as the car started, he asked me, "Is it your birthday today?"

I was stunned and looked at him.

With doubts in my eyes, I asked him, "How do you know?"

Shelton glanced outside the window and said, "Patrick has contracted all the advertising screens on all the buildings today. I'm afraid that everyone in the whole City Y has known about it, let alone me."

I turned my head and saw that the lights wishing me a happy birthday on the buildings outside were still flashing.

Thinking of Patrick who left because of

Caroline's pregnancy, I found that it couldn't be more ridiculous.

"He has a lot of money anyway." I lowered my eyes and gave a wry smile.

"Patrick is a businessman. And he surely isn't willing to spend money on anyone." Shelton looked ahead where there happened to be lights wishing me a happy birthday. He looked at them and said, "He is willing to spend so much money on you, which means he cares about you."

"This matter may never have happened."

I put on a wry smile.

"Does Patrick take me to his heart?" This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

"He only has Caroline on his mind."

I sat in the car in a daze and soon realized that Shelton's car wasn't heading in the direction of Unit No.1, City Y. I looked at the strange scenery outside the window and asked him, "Where are we going?"

I probably trusted Shelton.

Even though we weren't on the way home, I didn't doubt that he would hurt me.

Shelton smiled and said, "Your feet surely have been injured. Originally, I was on duty in the hospital and went home to fetch something. I didn't expect to meet you on the way back. I'll treat the wound on your feet for you. And then I'll take you home."

The injury on my feet should be very serious. I indeed needed to go to the hospital.

Soon, Shelton parked the car at the entrance to a small private hospital. I looked up and saw the name of Glorious Light Hospital at the entrance.

The car stopped at the nearest place to the door.

Shelton opened the car door for me. I got out of the car. Thinking that the wound on my right foot was serious, I wanted to step on the ground with my left foot. However, the moment I stepped on the ground with my left foot, I was in pain.

I took a deep breath. When I was trying to step on the ground, Shelton squatted in front of me and said, "Come on. I'll carry you on my back."

"No, you don't have to do that."

I immediately waved my hand.

Shelton still squatted there, slightly tilted his head, and said in a gentle tone, "Are you going to leave a string of bloody footprints in the corridor of my hospital?"

His words made me a little embarrassed.

Sure enough, my feet were covered with blood now.

After hesitating for a moment, I put my hands on Shelton's shoulder.

Along the way, I was carried to the consulting room by Shelton on his back.

A nurse helped me deal with the wound on my feet. There were a total of three pieces of glass on my feet.

When the largest piece of glass was pulled out of my feet, Shelton took a bear toy from nowhere and handed it to me, "Hold onto it. Don't be afraid. It will be over soon."

"Thank you."

I held the doll in my hands.

The nurse took out the largest piece of glass with a tweezer, disinfected my feet, and wrapped the gauze around my feet.

Shelton asked the nurse to get me a pair of new shoes for the nurses.

Then, he sent me home.

On the way back home, I asked him, "I didn't expect you to be a doctor..."

Shelton added, "Yes. I am just a poor doctor."

I immediately said, "No, no. Being a doctor is great. You can save the dying and help the injured."

I indeed thought so in my heart.

Shelton glanced at me from the corner of his eyes and smiled faintly, "Thank you. In fact, I also like my profession very much."

Shelton sent me home. As soon as I got off the car, he caught up with me again, "This is for you."

I looked down and saw that it was the teddy bear doll just now.

I subconsciously refused, "No, no need."

"Take it. It was given to me by a young patient before he was discharged from the hospital. It's useless for a grown-up man like me to keep it. So I'll give it to you." As he said, he put the doll in my hand and added, "You're also a child in my heart."

After he finished speaking, he went back to the car and drove away.

Looking at the bear doll, I couldn't help smiling. Then I went home with the doll.

That night, I didn't fall asleep. It was probably because I was accompanied by the bear doll.

The next day, as soon as I arrived at the company, I was surrounded by a bunch of colleagues.

"Charlotte, it was your birthday yesterday, wasn't it?!"

"Your boyfriend is so rich and generous. He booked the screens of all the buildings in the city yesterday!"

"That's right. You have such a rich boyfriend. Why didn't you reveal it to us? Are you so low-key?"

As everyone was talking, Raina said, "Her sister is the fiancee of the most powerful boss of our company, Mr. Cowell. Can she be worse-off?"

Her words caused an uproar in the audience.

More colleagues came to me, asking who my boyfriend was.

I knew that even if I said that it was Patrick who had prepared these things for me, no one would believe me.

I simply said, "That's not me. It might be someone else whose name is the same as mine."

"Don't lie to me. I have checked with the admin personnel and knew that it was your birthday yesterday."

Other colleagues didn't believe me at all.

I looked at my colleagues around me with a wry smile and asked them, "If such a thing happened to you, would you deny it?"

Hearing my words, everyone seemed to understand what I had meant.

All of them left with disappointment.

Someone pulled Raina and said, "Hey, I thought she did have a boyfriend from a rich family."

Raina smiled, "She just has some tricks. And men just want to have fun with her. If she can find a boyfriend who comes from a rich family, won't I have to marry the richest man in the world?"

Raina was the only person in the Design Department who knew about what had happened to me in Glorious Seth Design back then.

I could understand why she thought ill of me.

At noon, I sat at a table and had lunch by myself. Then I heard other colleagues who were sitting together discussing what had happened yesterday.

My colleagues of the Design Department shared what I had said in the morning with them without hiding anything from them.

Everyone of them looked disappointed and yet satisfied.

Originally, I thought that I could have lunch

alone in peace today. Then I heard someone next to me ask me, "Is anyone sitting here?"
