President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 213

The next day, when I got up, he was not in the room.

When I touched the bed, it was already cool, indicating that he had already left.

I wanted to go to the bathroom but I heard the water in it.

“Who?”

I was startled.

At this time, a servant came out of the bathroom and looked at me apologetically and said, “Miss Carter.”

“Why are you here now? Don’t you usually come in the afternoon?”

I looked at the servant suspiciously. Although she usually cleaned the house, I doubted everyone and everything after yesterday.

The servant said respectfully, “Mr. Jessop has me picked up in the morning and asked me to clean up here.”

“...”

I thought it was strange and went into the bathroom.

It was almost cleaned. The sapphire blue bathrobe Sean wore yesterday was not hung in the original place. “Where is the blue bathrobe?”

“I saw it on the ground when I came in, so I washed it directly.”

The servant explained to me.

“OK.”

I replied. I thought something was wrong, but I couldn’t say it.

When I wanted to ask her more, my cell phone rang in the bedroom.

I knew it was Daisy.

I picked up the phone and she yelled, “what time is it? Why haven’t you come? I’m angry.”

“I’m sorry. I’ll go out now.” I looked up at my watch. It was over 11 o’clock. I went to bed late yesterday, so I got up now.

I hung up and washed my face and changed. I was going to take a taxi.

But as soon as I went out, I saw Sean’s car parked at the door.

When I saw his car, I was shocked. I thought he was going to drive me, so I rushed to the copilot. I opened the door and wanted to say hello.

“Miss Carter.”

The man in the car said hello to me first.

It was Eric.

I couldn’t hide my disappointment, but I smiled reluctantly and sat in the copilot, “Eric.”

“President Jessop is busy and let me drive you.”

Eric replied respectfully.

I responded and didn’t say a word all the way. As I approached Daisy’s house, I asked, “Eric, do you know where Sean went last night?”

“Last night? I don’t know. I follow President Jessop almost only during the day.”

Eric said calmly.

His words were very formulaic and he answered very quickly.

He seemed to have been ready to answer my question.

I knew Sean would order his assistant if he hid something from me.

The car soon arrived at Daisy’s house.

I went upstairs with my present.

It was the first time I had seen her since I disfigured.

I knocked on the door.

The door opened in less than three seconds. The woman in the room held me with open arms. “Long time no see. I miss you so much.”

She looked down at the two gifts in my hand and said with a smile, “Hey, I said you don’t have to prepare gifts.”
