Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 488

Finn left. When I went upstairs, Nancy came over and said, "What's the matter? Taking turns to put on a family love show?"

I told Nancy what happened after Katy came here.

So when Finn came, Nancy naturally understood what was going on.

With a bitter face, I nodded. "That's right. He said that if I match the bone marrow, he will give half of his inheritance to me. Who cares?"

I moved the mouse, and the computer was switched to active mode from hibernating. I continued my design.

Nancy smiled and sighed. "Yes, you are now just waiting for Patrick to cure his legs. After that, he will come back and marry you, Mrs. Cowell to-be. Compared with the money of Towering High, Clark Group is really worthless."

My heart sank at her mention of Patrick.

I hadn't thought about Patrick for a long time.

It was not I didn't want to think. I was trying my best to stop myself from overthinking, because whenever I thought of him, I would feel quite sad.

Several months had been passed, but Patrick had never contacted me.

Although there was no evidence, my sixth sense told me that his operation should not have been very successful.

How could I find him in such a big world...

I looked at the computer screen in a daze.

Nancy seemed to have not realized it and continued to say, "Don't worry. In a few months, our new office building will be finished. We'll get a few more security guards. When trouble makers come, we'll throw them out."

After hearing what she said, I came to my senses and looked at her with a smile. "Well, employ some handsome men. We can be cheered up when seeing them at work."

Nancy moved the computer chair and leaned over. She hooked her arm around my neck and said with a smile, "When Patrick comes back, you'll look at him every day. He's such a handsome guy. It'll be boring for you to look at anyone else."

I threw her a sidelong glance. "Don't talk about him, okay? I even don't know if he's dead or alive."

"It won't be long, he'll be back soon."

Nancy patted me on my shoulder.

I looked at the computer screen and kept thinking about who could get in touch with him.

"How can I find him?"

After thinking for a while, I found that Jeremy was the only one.

I saved the drawing, had a word with nancy, and went out with my bag.

I drove straight to Towering High Group.

After getting out of the car, I walked quickly into the lobby. The receptionist recognized me. When she saw me, she bowed slightly but didn't say anything.

I immediately asked, "I want to make an appointment with Jeremy."

"Special Assistant Jeremy is very busy and doesn't accept an appointment."

The receptionist gave me a professional smile.

"There is something urgent!" I didn't want to give up.

The receptionist still kept the same smile. "Then you can call him, excuse me."

In fact, I had already called Jeremy.

He didn't take it at all.

I stood in the hall of the building of Towering High and looked at the people who came in and out. I was a little desperate.

Looking at the gate which was more than a meter in front of me, an idea came to me, but I hesitated for quite a while.

Looking around the security guards, I didn't jump over.

For the unnamed reason, I was getting more and more think of doing things that didn't match my age, even what I hadn't done when I was young. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Maybe I was afraid that I would regret it at old age?

However, I finally persuaded myself to give up climbing over the gate, and then I turned to go out.

I have no choice. Since I can't see Jeremy, I would wait for him downstairs.

At first, I waited at the gate, but I didn't see Jeremy after waiting for a few days. I had no other way but to wait at the gate of the underground parking lot. A few more days later I still didn't see him.

At that time, I was a little desperate.

I really didn't know how could I meet Jeremy and get the news of Patrick.

I waited at Towering High for those days, but it didn't work.

I still had work to do, so I had to give up and go back to work during the daytime.

A few days later, when I got off work, I saw Finn at the door of the studio.

Seeing me, he rushed over and said, "Charlotte."

"Don't call me!"

I was irritated when hearing him call me.

He looked at me and said, "Well... I came to looking for you a few days ago. They said that you were not here. Later, I heard that you have been waiting for Jeremy at Towering High these days. You want to know what happened to Patrick, don't you?"

Originally, I wanted to leave, but I stopped as heard what Finn had said.

I turned to look at him and said flatly, "What? Do you know anything?"

When I asked this question, I didn't entertain any hope.

Normally, he couldn't know that. Even if he could, I didn't think that Finn would tell me.

After all, Kelsi was his dear daughter. She had pestered Patrick so long, but there was no result. How could Finn help me?

If there was only one possibility for him to help me, that was, Patrick was disabled. Finn was afraid that it would be too hard for Kelsi to take.

However, I thought that the possibility was very low according to Kelsi's previous attitude.

Kelsi knew how to weigh the pros and cons as same as Finn.

However, after hearing my question, Finn nodded. "Although I don't know where Patrick is, a while ago, Kelsi went to Country E and has been there for half a month. We don't have a branch there, so she did not explicitly tell us what she was going to do. But I have investigated that Patrick should be there."

" In E country?"

I stared at Finn, trying to find if he was lying from his face.

Perhaps because he had fallen ill recently, there was a sign of sickness on his face.

I couldn't find anything beside that.

His sickly face made him look franker.

I stood still and stared at him. "Why do you tell me? I don't think you will be so kind to help me and not help Kelsi."

"You're both my daughters as the flesh on both sides of my hand. It's a cruel dilemma for me..."

"Mr. Finn, let's come to the point. Don't put on a family love show. Otherwise, I won't listen to you anymore."

I interrupted Finn's words directly.

I couldn't hear when he said both of us were his

daughters.

How absurd!

Hearing this, Finn licked his lips with his tongue. "Okay, I won't say that. I also understand the relationship between you and Patrick. A long time ago, Patrick came to me and said that he would not marry anyone except you. I don't want to..."

"Mr. Finn, I don't want to hear this."

Finn's way of currying favor really made me sick.

He seemed to have seen through the unhappy look on my face. He sighed, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I hope that you can test bone marrow match for my help."

"That's the point."

Hearing him make it like a deal, on the contrary, I felt that it was acceptable.

Those empty words would make people uncomfortable.

Finn took out a piece of paper from his pocket and said, "This is the address of Kelsi. I checked it and found that there is a very good hospital in the surrounding in E country. Patrick should have been treated there."

I looked up and found an English address on it.

In fact, I really would not like to help him, but if this address was true...

I hesitated, but still picked it up. Looking at the address on it, I asked Finn, "How can I know whether you are lyingt⁰ me?
