Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 271

Standing there, I could tell that the man was Jeremy Archer without carefully observing him. He was wearing the same clothes as he had worn in the daytime.

As the rain fell on him, he, who was thin, seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

I said, "Uncle, I've told you that you got the wrong person. How come you found me here? How did you find this place?"

I spoke calmly as if I wasn't connected to him.

"No, I indeed have nothing to do with me."

Walking up to me step by step, Jeremy grabbed my clothes with his hands, "Charlotte, we did everything wrong in the past. After I went home, I told your mother that I had seen you. She insisted that I should take you home for dinner. She even gets the dishes ready."

"Could Gina cook?"

I wasn't convinced.

Gina claimed herself to be a noble lady. She didn't know how to cook at all. How come she could cook after a few years? I doubted that.

Shelton asked me with an umbrella in his hands, "What are you going to do with him?"

If I ignored Jeremy, Jeremy probably would stand here for the entire night.

After all, he was living a hard life now. If the news that he passed out at the door of his biological daughter's studio got out, he surely would attract others' attention.

I hesitated for a moment and asked Jeremy, "Uncle, where do you live? We'll send you back. You indeed got the wrong person."

"Uncle, her name is Janetta Nolan. She's not the one you're looking for."

Shelton spoke up for me as well.

"Janetta Nolan? What are you talking about?" Jeremy was anxious, "She's my daughter. And her name is Charlotte Archer!"

"Your mother had been pregnant with you for ten months. To give birth to you and your sister, she almost died in the hospital. For the sake of this, go with me and see her."

Jeremy grabbed my arm with his hands.

With chill spreading through my skin, I couldn't help but shudder.

I pulled out my hand and looked at Shelton, "How about sending him to your hospital? It seems that his mind is abnormal."

Honestly speaking, after I went back to City Y this time, I hated to mess up with some people the most.

They were Jeremy and Gina.

Hearing this, Jeremy was anxious. Grabbing my hands tightly, he said, "Is my mind abnormal? I can't be more sobered! I have two daughters. And one of them died. Others say that you are the deceased one. But I checked the photos. I know that the one who died is Caroline! We have been looking for you for a long time!"

"Photos?"

I looked suspiciously at Jeremy.

"Yes!" Jeremy pulled me, "Please, Charlotte, go home with me to see your mother."

I was a little hesitant.

The kinship was the most subtle relationship in the world. Even so, after a few years of separation, I had no nostalgia for Jeremy and Gina at all.

And I didn't intend to forgive them for what they had done to me.

Shelton held my arm and said, "Why don't we send him back first?" '...Okay then." I could only agree.

We pulled Jeremy into the car.

He gave us an address.

Hearing his words, I couldn't help but feel a little sad.

It was the most dilapidated asylum in the southern part of City Y. The ones living there were the ones ranked at the bottom of the social ladder of City Y.

However down Jeremy and Gina were, they couldn't have become so poor as to live in such a place.

"What on earth has happened in the past few years?"

I wanted to ask Jeremy. But I was Janetta Nolan. I shouldn't ask him so.

It was raining. Shelton was driving exceptionally slowly.

In the car, Jeremy had been calling me, "Charlotte."

In the end, I couldn't stand it anymore. I turned to look at him and said coldly, "Uncle, if you continue to call me like this, I'll kick you out of the car and leave."

Hearing what I said, Jeremy immediately shut up.

Shelton drove for about an hour and a half before reaching Jeremy's house.

Getting out of the car, I saw the building in front of me clearly by the dim light on the roadside.

I was considering that before I leave City Y, at worst, I would give them a sum of money.

I wouldn't come back here in the future anyway.

With Jeremy leading the way, Shelton and I went upstairs.

The light in the corridor, which was quite narrow, wasn't on.

As I was about to put my hand on the armrest next to me, I felt that I had touched something furry...

Soon, the furry thing quickly moved away. Without moving my hand away, I touched something thin and long.

In the end, the thin and long thing was gone.

It took me a few seconds to realize that what I had touched just now...

It was a rat!

Taking a breath of cold air, I was so scared that tears welled up in my eyes. However, biting my lips, I held myself back from screaming out.

"What's wrong?" Shelton found that something was wrong with me.

"I'm fine..."

"It is just that I touched a rat."

I suppressed the fear in my heart and rubbed my hands against each other frantically.

It truly was hard for me to imagine how Jeremy and Gina would spend their life in a place like this.

In the past, Jeremy and Gina claimed themselves to be nobles.

We followed Jeremy all the way to the fifth floor.

He took out a key and opened the door.

As soon as he opened the door, I saw the scene inside the house, feeling shocked.

The size of the room was only about 30 or 40 square meters. The room inside looked messy. Empty carton boxes were at every corner of it, including the sofa and the floor. On the side, there were many empty carton boxes hadn't been folded.

"That means they have been making money by folding carton boxes, right?"
