Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 116

Back then, Caroline framed me, saying that I pushed her down the mountain. At that time, Stanley came to me and said that I needed to help her make some changes to somewhere in her wedding room.

After I went there, I met Caroline.

Later, Caroline disappeared. And Stanley didn't testify for me. So I didn't have anyone to prove my innocence...

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

The policeman didn't seem to notice my abnormality. He nodded and said, "Then you should call them. It's better for them to explain face to face."

"Okay."

As I said, I took out my cell phone.

But just as I was about to dial, my hands shook. "Bang!" My cell phone fell to the ground.

I didn't notice that when I recalled what had happened a few years ago, my palms were sweating.

I quickly wiped my palms with my clothes

and lowered my head to pick up my cell phone.

The police asked me, "What's wrong?"

The police asked me.

"I'm fine." I shook my head. Then I got the phone number of Ralph and Serena from the phonebook.

After staring at my cell phone for a while, I finally decided to call Ralph.

I pressed the dial button.

The standby tone started to ring over the phone.

At this time, my heart was pounding. I was afraid that something might go wrong again.

I waited over the phone for a minute. But no one answered my call.

I was a little flustered instantly.

Then I called Serena again.

It was still the same. No one answered my call!

I said excitedly, "I, I, I..." I was in a panic in my heart, "They indeed picked me up and drove me to the western restaurant. And they came to pick me up in the residential quarter. Surveillance video is available in my residential quarter. You surely can get something based on the videos!"

The police, who acted like he was getting business done previously, looked at me with some doubts in his eyes.

I knew that the more I acted like this, the more suspicious I would be.

Even so, it was unknown wht I couldn't control myself at all.

I even began to predict the worst ending in my heart, guessing whether I had been set up by Caroline again.

The policeman looked at me and finally said, "Anyway, since you can't get in touch with them, you can go to the police station with us first."

"No!"

I shouted out loud!

I didn't want to go to the police station!

I was afraid that I couldn't get out if I went there.

The police said, "It's not up to you. Based on your current mood, we can detain you on valid grounds!"

Indeed, right now, while making a phone call, I was already in such a panic.

If I weren't a suspect, the outsiders probably wouldn't believe it.

The colleagues who were watching the fun around me were still there. They were whispering as if they were sure that I had done something illegal. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

When I was desperate...

"I can follow behind you as if I were a shadow chasing after the light in a daze..."

The ringtone of my cell phone rang!

I lowered my head and saw that the caller ID on it was Serena Harper!

It was as if I had got a life-saving straw. I hurried up and answered the call.

"Sorry, Designer Charlotte, my husband and I were selecting materials just now. So we didn't notice that you were calling us."

As soon as the phone was connected, Serena immediately apologized to me.

At that time, I was so excited that I felt that my heart was about to melt. And I said, "It's okay." Then I began to tell her about the police's request.

Hearing this, Serena agreed without saying anything else.

In less than 40 minutes, she and Ralph arrived in a car.

After getting out of the car, the two of them were very cooperative, explaining the situation back then to the police.

The policeman listened to their words and made a record. After getting the record done, he looked at me with some confusion, "Didn't you have a witness? Why were you so nervous?"

"I was framed by someone before. So I was very nervous this time."

I smiled faintly.

Serena and Ralph were willing to testify for me. So I was relieved. And I didn't look nervous anymore.

When I was about to leave, the police told me something about Caroline, that was, she had been found probably in the middle of last night. But her situation was not very good.

"Isn't her situation very good?"

"Her child probably was gone."

That was what I was guessing

Even so, it was none of my business.

After the police left, Serena asked me about some things about the design of their restaurant. Because she helped me just now. I also trusted her very much. Consequently, I responded readily to whatever she asked and helped them do some changes to the 3D effect picture.

I went home by car and bought something in the supermarket. When I was cooking at home, I couldn't help thinking about Caroline's matter.

If Caroline had an accident and the real mastermind behind the scene wasn't found, she surely would put the blame on me.

As expected...

Before I could finish cooking my meal, my cell phone rang. And it was a call from a strange number. My first reaction was that the call should be from my client. So I picked it up without deliberation.

Unexpectedly, the moment I picked the call up, Gina's hysterical voice came over the phone, "Charlotte Archer! You're going to die a terrible death! You don't have any conscience at all. And yet you're harming Caroline like this! I'm going to kill you!"

I listened to her words for a while without any expression on my face and hung up the phone.

Then, I blacklisted the number.

I had already blacklisted Gina's and Jeremy's phone number. So their calls couldn't come in at all.

Now, to scold me, Gina used a new number.

It seemed that what had happened to

Caroline was serious this time.

Even so, in my opinion, it had nothing to do with me.

The next morning, I arrived at the company. As soon as I entered the office, I saw several colleagues of mine converge and chat. When they saw me coming in, they stopped chatting immediately.

They all looked at me.

But no one spoke.

I didn't bother with them

Seeing that I didn't respond, Raina seemed to fail to hold herself back. Then she stood up and asked, "Charlotte Archer, your sister was raped by gangsters. Why didn't you have any reaction at all?"

"What?"

I was stunned.

Then, I looked at Raina.

Raina was a little surprised as she said, "Don't tell me you don't know anything about it? There's news on the Internet that your sister, Patrick's fiancee, was kidnapped and raped by several gangsters the night before."

With a confused look on my face, I immediately took out my cell phone and logged on to Facebook.

I searched on it for news casually...

Sure enough, this matter had spread all over the Internet.

It was not because Caroline was very famous.

Instead, it was because Patrick was too famous.

He used to be a dream lover of many women. He had held a wedding before. And after making a lot of scenes, he said that he would marry Caroline again.

A lot of things about Patrick and Caroline were spread all over the internet.

Although nobody knew exactly what had happened, they thought pretty ill of the Archer Family.

They all thought that Caroline surely wanted to waste Patrick's money away by asking him to hold a wedding ceremony for her twice.

Now Caroline was revealed to have been raped by gangsters. And the comments below the news were even more disgusting.

Many of the comments read, "Good job! She was raped. Otherwise, these young ladies would always feel that they were noble and reserved".

"These gangsters did a good job. They f**ked Patrick's woman!"

There were a lot more vicious comments.

Some of the comments seemed to be made by females. They thought that since Caroline had been raped, she surely wasn't worthy of Patrick anymore and that she should quickly give Patrick up!

Reading these comments, I had a strange feeling in my heart.

In my opinion, what had happened to Caroline was all her own fault. Even so, I still felt a little uncomfortable as I read the netizens' comments.

When I was reading these comments, Raina said, "I heard that the police had come to see you yesterday. And some people said that regarding the birthday blessings "Charlotte, happy birthday"

displayed over the screens of the buildings across the city a while ago, Patrick contracted them for you -"
