Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 63

How could she change her attitude dramatically overnight?

And it seemed that my guess yesterday was proved to be right!

Someone was guiding Ronald's wife on what to say and how to do.

I looked at Ronald's wife and asked her, "There are so many people in our company, most of whom are women. How can you know that I am Charlotte Archer accurately?"

Hearing my question, Ronald's wife suddenly panicked. Then she stared at the ground and paused for a long time before saying, "You, you look bad at first sight! Who else can it be Charlotte Archer?"

I looked at the policeman who came with her and asked with a faint smile, "Police, she is so powerful that she can see who is the bad person at a glance. Do you want to consider recruiting her as police?"

"What do you mean?" Ronald's wife was anxious. She stood up and pointed to me as she scolded, "It is you who harmed my husband! My husband is healthy. If it weren't for someone who did something to him, how could he have died?"

Seeing that Ronald's wife point to me and scold me, the police seemed to have realized something as well at the moment.

He tried to persuade Ronald's wife, "These are two things. Before you have any evidence, don't connect them together."

Hearing that the police weren't on her side, Ronald's wife pointed to the police and complained, "You will help the rich and bully the poor, right?"

As soon as she roared, the two twins, who were sleeping beside her, burst into tears!

"I'm telling you the truth."

The police were also in a daze.

Instead of suppressing this matter, they got me involved instead.

The colleagues around me looked at me in an unfriendly manner as they whispered.

Someone said in public, "Well, let's fire Charlotte Archer."

"Fire her? Can my husband go back to life after that?" Ronald's wife pointed at the speaker and shouted, "It is not your family member who died. Of course, you don't know the pain I suffer!"

The colleague dared not speak again.

In order not to disturb everyone's work, Seth planned to invite Ronald's wife to his office.

But she insisted on making a big scene here.

She had been making a scene there in such a way for three days in a row.

On the third day, Ronald's wife brought a test sheet for Ronald's stomach examination conducted by the hospital with her, saying that Glorious Seth Design exploited the staff. It was because her husband couldn't have the meal on time that he got sick.

Generally speaking, the compensation for this kind of case was only about 200 or 300 thousand dollars or 500 thousand dollars at most.

It was probably because I got involved in this matter that Seth kindly offered Ronald's wife a million dollars as compensation.

However, she did not agree.

On the fifth day...

When we went to the office in the morning, we found that she had placed Ronald's body at the entrance of the office building! It was unknown what kind of method she had used.

Before that, Seth and I had already bought a shroud for Ronald and asked an undertaker to do him makeup.

At this moment, the corpse was lying at the door. Anyone who took a look at it would be frightened!

I took a look at it from afar. When Ronald's wife saw me, she pounced on me as if she had gone mad and scolded, "Charlotte Archer, it's you. It's you who took advantage of my husband and made him feel that he owed the company. That's why he worked hard and died!"

There were a lot of onlookers around. But most of them dared not approach us.

As Ronald's wife rushed to me, everyone was enjoying it as a show.

"Regardng this matter, including the project, they have nothing to do with me."

I explained it to her.

But she just wouldn't listen to me. And she pulled me as she burst into tears.

Then, as she cried, she asked everyone to help her get an explanation.

None of the onlookers dared to move forward. Based on Ronald's wife's current behavior, she seemed to be crazy.

Not long after, the police arrived and invited her upstairs.

They wanted her to take the body back to the funeral house and burn it so that Ronald could rest at peace.

However, Ronald's wife was unwilling to do so.

She had asked for five million dollars before. But today, with her husband's body here, she had one more request.

She wanted to put me into jail!

As for who the person behind Ronald's wife was, the way I saw it, it was becoming more and more obvious.

The office of Glorious Seth Design design was a rented one in an office building. After such a scene, the person in charge of the office building was not willing to rent the office to us. He found Seth and said that if this matter was not solved in three days, Glorious Seth Design had to move out!

After all, no one was willing to see a corpse in front of the door.

All things were piled up together, making the situation no longer as simple as asking me to resign. And I couldn't go to prison for something without valid evidence.

At noon, I thought of Ronald's daughter who was watching Ronald's body and looking after a pair of twins at the same time by herself downstairs.

I was afraid that they would be hungry.

So I ordered takeout. Then I went downstairs with a kettle and a cup in my hand.

In fact, over the past few days, I found that Ronald's eldest daughter almost didn't say a word, who just lowered her head.

I thought I probably could know something from her.

When I handed the food and the kettle to Ronald's daughter, she didn't say anything and wolfed down the food.

She choked in the middle. And I poured water for her.

When she almost finished her food, she said in a low voice, "Thank you."

"What's your name? How old are you?"

I took the things over and sat next to her, looking at Ronald's body. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Ronald's daughter responded, "My name is Pearl Weil." Seeing that I was sitting next to the body and asked, "Auntie, everyone is afraid of the body. Aren't you afraid?"

I shook my head and told her that Seth and I had sent her father's body to the funeral house and changed him with the shroud.

Hearing this, Pearl, who had been silent all the time, burst into tears. She took my hand and said, "Auntie, I know you are a good person. My mother was misled by a bad aunt who looks like you! But I can't persuade her!"

Her words shocked me!

I asked if she would like to tell the police about this.

Pearl hesitated for a moment and nodded.

I called the police down.

However, Ronald's wife came down with the police. In front of Ronald's wife, no matter how hard I begged Pearl to repeat what she had said again, she just lowered her head and shook her head desperately.

She didn't say a word as if she were a mute.

Ronald's wife seemed to have come to a realization and pushed me, "You are a vicious woman. Do you want to force my daughter to make perjury? My husband is dead. And you still want to take advantage of my daughter. Do you want to kill my family?"

I shook my head and explained. But no one believed me.

At that time, I was so desperate. I was so afraid that Seth would be implicated because of me.

Just as I was in despair, my cell phone rang.

I picked the call up. It turned out to be the person who repaired my computer. He asked me unhappily as towhen I was going to get my computer back, saying that my computer had been on his side for a few days.

"My computer."

It made me hopeful all of a sudden!

I said to him over the phone, "I'll go there now!"

At the same time, I ran to the roadside and stopped a taxi!

By the time Ronald's wife caught up with me, the taxi had already started.

An hour later, I went to Computer Town and got the computer that I used to have in college.

I turned on the computer in the shop where I got the computer repaired. Soon, I found the photos that Telma had shown to me. Moreover, as the computer was restored, the date when the photos had been taken was restored as well.

To prevent the computer from breaking down again, I bought a U- disk in the store and backed-up this set of photos.

Then I transferred the photos to my cell phone and sent them to Caroline.
