Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 492

Hearing Kelsi's words, I felt as if a bomb were exploding in my mind!

'What did she mean? How come Patrick and Kelsi actually had a child?'

Standing where I was in a daze, I asked somewhat confusedly, "How... how old is this child?"

"The same age as your son."

Kelsi answered.

Looking at her, I was incredulous, "You lied to me!"

I said decisivey.

'That's right.'

'There was no way that Patrick would agree to do so!'

Seeing that I wasn't convinced, Kelsi didn't insist on convincing me, "It doesn't matter to me as for whether you believe it or not. You asked Patrick to come back to your side for the sake of your son. For my son, I will do so as well. Both of us are his ex-wives. And both of us mean the same to him!"

Kelsi's words stunned me.

I was indeed confused.

I never expected that Kelsi and Patrick would have

child.

I stood where I was and looked at her in a daze. Moving my lips, I didn't know what to say. My mind was in a mess.

In the end, I returned to the hotel without saying anything.

The room I booked was nice. There was a small balcony outside the windows. On the balcony, there was a small table and a chair.

Sitting on it, I could be bathed in the sunlight.

Sitting there, I pondered on what had happened this afternoon.

In the situation when I pretended to be dead back then, Patrick married Kelsi. For the sake of the Cowell Family's future, it was understandable that Patrick did so.

'But, why didn't he ever tell me anything about it?'

'In this way, I'm no different from Kelsi.'

I sat there in a daze. Unknowingly, the sunset had passed.

Originally, I planned to climb over the wall to get in the hospital at night.

However, I was no longer in the mood to do so. I didn't even know how I would face Patrick.

'He and Kelsi actually had a child.'

'Then I...'

Because of the jet lag, it wasn't until after midnight that I was somewhat drowsy.

Lying on the bed, I fell asleep.

By the time I woke up, it had been noon the next day.

In the town, there were some small- sized restaurants. I went downstairs and had lunch. The food here was quite different from that in City Y.

I found the food here disagreeable.

But it didn't matter.

Last night, I even considered whether I should go back or not.

After lunch, I turned on my computer, intending to focus on work. Upon logging in, I received Lisa's message, which read, "Baby, have you seen Patrick whom you missed so much?"

I told her that I would be here before.

After reading Lisa's message, I pondered for a moment, picked up my cell phone, and called her.

Soon, Lisa picked up the call and spoke in surprise over the phone, "You are making an international call."

"I have something to tell you." Looking at the desktop wallpaper on my computer screen, I thought for a moment before saying, "Yesterday, I learned that Kelsi and Patrick might have a son and that he should be about the same age as Glenn."

"What?"

I could strongly sense Lisa's surprise over the phone.

So I moved the cell phone a little further away from me.

Lisa continued, "That's impossible. What the hell is this? Didn't he ever tell you about this?"

Holding the cell phone, I shook my head, "No, I knew it yesterday. And now I'm in a mess."

"Well, regarding this..." Lisa said over the phone, "In my opinion, you should ask Patrick about this by yourself. After all, Kelsi is good at disguising herself. You don't even know whether she is telling the truth or not. Nobody knows that she, who was a high-ranking socialite in City Y before, is a shrew in private, right? You'd better confirm with Patrick."

I found Lisa's words did have a point.

And I saw a glimmer of hope.

'That's right. Previously, in front of the public, Kelsi couldn't be more perfect in City Y. Many rich gentlemen wanted to marry her.'

'It is because Kelsi left a good impression on the public.'

'No one can have imagined that she will be such a person.'

'Speaking of what she and Shelton had done together before, if I hadn't heard of them and experienced them in person, I wouldn't have believed that she was such a person.'

I nodded, "All right, but now Patrick doesn't want to see me. I have to think of a solution."

"Then does he want to see her?"

"He doesn't want to see her either."

Hearing this, Lisa heaved a sigh of relief, "Then think of a way. After all, Patrick is such an outstanding man. Now that he is a cripple. He should have some difficulties accepting it. It's normal that he tends to seclude himself and avoid refuse to see anyone. You should enlighten him more."

Lisa spoke in a light tone. In her opinion, it wasn't a big deal.

However, as soon as she finished her words, Roger's voice rang over the phone. "Baby, why are you talking on the phone? There's radiation on the phone."

"I'm on the phone with Charlotte," Lisa replied.

Followingly, Roger said, "What time is it? It's past 9 p.m. Go to sleep. Pregnant women need more rest."

Roger's voice came from far to near.

I smiled at the cell phone and said, "Okay, I'll hang up."

"Well..."

"Bye, Sister-in-law!"

It seemed that as soon as Lisa was about to say something, Roger grabbed the cell phone and hung up.

Looking at the cell phone, I could imagine the scene over the phone.

Because of Lisa's words, I felt much more relieved.

After working for the whole afternoon and having dinner in the evening, I strolled around the hospital.

With few people in this town, almost all the places were closed at around 7 p.m., including the hospital, the convenience store, and so on. If I wanted to drink some water, I had to buy water on an automatic vending machine on the roadside.

Naturally, there were few people on the street.

At the hospital entrance, I took a look at the room where Kelsi lived on the opposite side and saw that the lights were on.

She didn't continue to waste her time here.

Seeing this, I went home first and continued to

work.

Time passed by quickly as I worked. Moreover, because of the jet lag, by the time I came to my senses, it had been past 1 a.m.

I turned off my computer, changed my shoes, and went out.

At this time, the town was like a dead city. There were no lights on the street. Even the street lights were off.

I walked to the side of the hospital and took a look at Kelsi's house first, only to find that the lights had gone out.

Looking inside the hospital, I saw that the lights inside had all been turned off and that only one was still on.

My intuition told me that it was Patrick's room.

Circling the hospital, soon, I found that I could enter the hospital from somewhere. After all, the hospital was quite old.

The wall outside was not intact. Somewhere on the wall was cracked. After estimation, I stepped on the crack to climb up the wall.

After climbing for a few times, I failed.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

One time, I fell directly to the ground with my arms hitting on the ground. I could felt that my elbow was scratched and bruised.

Even so, I want to see Patrick.

I wanted to ask him about his relationship with Kelsi.

With this kind of obsession turning into motivation in my mind, I finally successfully stood on the wall after seven or tight times' failure.

At night, it was pitch dark inside the hospital. Standing on the wall, I couldn't see the situation on the ground.

I turned on the flashlight on my cell phone to roughly confirm that there was nothing down below before jumping off the wall.

And I landed on the ground safe and sound.

Patting the dirt off my clothes, I quickly headed for the building where Patrick's room was. By this time, there were no more bodyguards outside.

After entering the building, I went straight to the room on the third floor with the light on.
