President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 201

I looked at Sean in a daze and didn’t know what he was thinking.

Sean dragged me onto the car violently, then lit a cigarette in the car, took a sip, and said, “I rarely see you cry, but I see you cry for Daniell. If Ming dies one day, I guess you will cry for him, but if I die, I’m afraid you will just say ‘oh’ with no expression.”

His words made me a sort of shocked.

I never seemed to have thought about it.

If Sean died one day.

I never seemed to have thought about that question.

The car started slowly and then drove quickly to the neighborhood. I glanced at the name of the neighborhood which called The Best Home.

This neighborhood was very much in line with its name. Each house inside was completely independent, with a front yard and back yard, and two parking spaces. In the center of the city, such neighborhoods were rare.

Sean opened the door for me and then opened all four windows of the car.

He took my hand and apologized, “Sorry, I was just a little impulsive. I know I have done many things that hurt you before, and I always know that. I thought you just refused treatment because you didn’t want to stay with me for a year, so I ...”

“I know.” On this occasion, I asked Sean, “Can you tell me if Daniell’s death has anything to do with you?”

“What?”

Sean was stunned by my question.

With a slight frown, he asked, “How do you think his death related to me?”

“Because I have heard a recording...”

I told Sean about the recording which Molly gave me when she kidnapped me.

It wasn’t that I was stupid, but I was alone, and I didn’t have any investigative skills except to ask Sean.

“If I said it had nothing to do with me, would you believe it?” Sean looked at me. His black eyes flickered slightly, as if he was expecting something.

I kept silent for a moment and answered, “Yes.”

On hearing that, I could feel the man relaxed slightly. He nodded slightly. “Leave it to me. If his death was not an accident, I’ll find it for you.”

The man said that, and led me into the room.

As soon as I entered the house, I found it was not as big and empty as the house in York No.1.

On the contrary, the room in this house was not large, and the decoration was made of fabric. There were some puppets and green plants in each corner.

It was very sweet.

Sean pulled me into the middle of the room and looked at me with his hopeful eyes. “Do you like it?”

It was autumn outside, but everything in the room was exceptionally warm.

I nodded and said, “Thank you.”

Sean patted me on the head. “I owe you, so I will compensate you. As for the injury on your face, please consider it carefully.”

“well, okay.”

I know Sean really cares me.

That night, we slept in a room when Sean held me. I didn’t know why I felt unexpectedly relieved.

Sean went to work during the day, and I was at home alone. The servants were all hourly workers at my request.

I had nothing to do. In addition to looking at some online decoration examples, I was very bored most of the time.

On the fifth day, I finally decided to step out and bought some fruit in the supermarket.

When I went out with my mask, bought some fruit and checked out, I heard someone calling me in the back, “June?”

I turned around and saw Inez Fanning and Marlin Carter standing behind me!
