Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 385

The number was from a stranger. I hesitated for a moment but still picked it up.

"Hello, is that Janetta?"

Over the phone, I heard a middle-aged man's voice with a bit of hoarseness.

He is a stranger to me.

Holding the phone, I hesitated for a moment, and said, "This is Janetta, you are..."

"Hello, my name is Finn."

As soon hearing this name, I was completely stressed.

Finn, is Kelsi's father.

He could also be my father...

I was silent for a few seconds and then asked, "Mr. Finn, what's the matter?"

"Well, I heard that you had sent Kelsi to the hospital today and paid for her medical expenses. I'm really grateful to you."

Finn said politely on the other side of the phone.

"It's alright. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll hang up first."

Initially, I was going to hang up the phone as I said

so.

To Finn, I was very resistant.

When I was about to press the hang-up button, I heard the voice from the other end of the line, "Wait a minute!"

I stopped pressing, put the phone next to my ear again, and asked him in a distant tone, "Is there anything else?"

"That is.. We just wanted to know why Kelsi would go there. Did you ask her out? And there was a car accident..."

"I didn't ask her out. I had a project there. I thought my partner would go there. As a result, I wanted to take a taxi back after my partner left. I didn't expect to meet Kelsi." Since Finn asked, I explained at once. "She insisted on treating me to coffee in that place in the middle of nowhere. I didn't agree. As a result, there came a car behind. She pulled me and fell down, and then she was hit by the car.

I finished the words in one breath.

Finn, who was on the other side of the phone, seemed to be stunned. "So..."

"So, if there is any information on the Internet say that I hurt her, I can only prove the facts by the monitor. I think when she did so, she had already thought about how to trap me." I said, and added, "Also, I am not interested in whether you are my biological father or not. Naturally, I will not test DNA with you. If Kelsi is awake, please tell her that she doesn't have to be wary of me."

Finn didn't expect that I would say that.

But in my opinion, aren't wealthy families afraid of this?

If I'm another daughter of the family, no matter how old I am, they thought I would share their property.

As a result, Finn said with a simple smile on the phone, "No, I don't mean that. These years, I have owe you and your mother a lot. I want to compensate you."

"You don't need to. It will be the best compensation as long as your Kelsi family, including Kelsi, does not have any relationship with me."

I said decisively.

I just wanted to live a peaceful life, and I didn't want to get involved in the property struggle of the rich family.

"This..."

"It's all right. I'll hang up. Goodbye, Mr. Finn."

I hung up the phone as soon as I finished.

Looking at me, Nancy and Paulina applauded one

after another.

Paulina said, "Shero, you can regard money as nothing. I'm almost moved to tears."

"Hold your tears, go back to work!" I patted her on her back.

In fact, due to the previous things, there was really a lot of work in the studio.

More work, more money.

In addition, Nancy and I even could design the indoor scenery, so it's more suitable for us to do the work.

It turned out that I was too naive.

After being hit by the car, Kelsi was in a coma for nearly 12 hours. It was said that she had a slight concussion, but it was not serious.

However, Kelsi held a press conference at that time. Unexpectedly, she said in public that the reason of the accident was I pushed her away!

For a moment, I was pushed to the forefront of the storm of comments.

When I got the news in the studio, my mind was in a whirl.

I turned on the computer and logged in to replay the video of the press conference. I watched Kelsi in front of the reporter's camera, with tears on her face, talked about the situation of the accident.

Next to her was Finn!

Finn stood aside and said that he was wrong in the past, which planted the seeds of hatred in my heart. He was also telling me in public, at the press conference, not to hurt Kelsi if I had a vendetta against him.

Kelsi said, "I understand Janetta's feeling. She was unfortunate for her entire life because of my parents' mistakes..."

When I saw what Kelsi looked like, I seemed to see another Caroline.

However, the difference was that Kelsi was smarter than Caroline and the Kelsi family was also stronger than the Archer Family.

When I returned to the social forum, the netizens criticized and attacked me verbally.

Because of Shelton's disclosure, my identity of Charlotte was revealed. At this time, everyone became a detective.

I didn't expect that the secret about Caroline is disclosed.

When I thought that it was already the worst, there was even worse news.

Gina and Jeremy's court session had been trialed .

Originally, I was the victim of this incident.

However, in the media's distorted reports, I was inverted from a victim to a perpetrator.

Unexpectedly, there was a VIP on MicroBlog write that it was me who locked Gina and Jeremy in Aristocratic Family Complex and beat them to the verge of death, though they had been already poor.

It said they were even sent to prison by me in the end.

I knew it a long time ago. The netizens did not want to see the truth at all. They only wanted to know the result that they wanted to know.

By that time, my name on the Internet was absolutely blackened.

I tried not to read the comments.

In order to avoid it and to make myself get through it, I decided to live in the studio, except for sleeping and eating, I only did my work.

A month's design was actually completed by me in 20 days.

When the first sunshine in the morning shone into the studio, the 3D design illustration of the Incubatio Center was rendered completely.

I stared at the illustration, and all I could see was darkness...

My whole body fell backward—

When I woke up again, I was already lying in the hospital.

There were two people sitting aside. I took a look and saw they were Nancy and Lisa.

I moved my fingers slightly, and they both came closer immediately.

Lisa said first, "Charlotte, do you want to die? Such a big incident has happened, you didn't tell me. If I haven't come back, I'm afraid I'll collect your body the next time I come."

Lisa was sharp-tongued but soft-hearted.

I heard her words and smiled.

Nancy also came over. "You want money instead of your life? If you die, I'll carry Glenn away and raise him as a son-in-law."

"Why did I faint..." I was a little confused.

It was only one night that I'd been staying up.

I had got sleep before that.

Hearing this, Nancy said anxiously, "You're over 30 years old. Do you still take yourself as a young girl? The doctor said that you're overworked."

So that was it.

"You're right. I am already in my 30s." Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

In fact, it's really good that I'd been busy with work these days. I could escape from the slander on the Internet and concentrated on work.

I had been busy for a week and a half, day and night turned upside down, and I didn't even go home.

I didn't know how Patrick had been recently.

Perhaps there was a telepathy.

When I thought of him, the door of the ward was opened, and Patrick stood at the door. When he saw me lying on the bed, he walked over with a frown and said painfully, "You won't stop until make yourself sick and let my heart ache, right?"
