Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 147

"What do you mean?"

I was stunned on the spot.

Seeing that the doctor was about to leave, I caught up with him and said, "What do you mean? He has been here for just a few hours. Why did you send me your condolence? I had breakfast with him this morning. And he also sent me to work. Moreover, he said..."

The doctor interrupted me, "Follow me."

I was stunned.

I knew where he was taking me. So I stood still and shook my head desperately, "I won't go! You lied to me! How could he have died?"

All of these happened so abruptly.

And there wasn't any warning.

I didn't believe it!

How could I believe it?

A few hours ago, Seth had been safe and sound. But now, how come the doctor told me that he was dead?

I didn't want to see him. I didn't want to believe what the doctor had said

I turned around and left.

The doctor shouted at me from behind, "Miss Archer, although Mr. Hyde had been in a coma when he was sent here, he woke up halfway through our rescue."

I turned around and asked, "And then? What do you mean by saying that he woke up once? Since he woke up, why didn't you save him?"

I was questioning the doctor.

Since Seth had woken up, why was he dead in the end?

"When he woke up, he said that you surely would come here, advising me that if you come here, I should tell you something." The doctor looked at me and paused. Then he went on, "He said that he loved you. And If there is a next life, he will meet you earlier."

I just looked at the doctor and couldn't say a word.

Tears flowed down the corner of my eyes.

It was as if someone were pinching my heart.

My heart ached so much.

"Follow me."

The doctor waved at me.

I raised my feet and followed him to the underground.

It was clear that it was more chilling here than it was above.

The doctor led me to the door of a morgue, opened the door, and waved to me.

I walked over and looked inside.

The hospital here probably was small. And there was only one bed inside.

A person was lying on it. And his height seemed to be a little shorter than Seth's height. Seth was taller than the one on the bed.

"Yes, Seth is higher than him."

"It isn't Seth."

I pretended to be relaxed and said, "You scared me. It is not Seth. He's not so short."

As I spoke, I wanted to leave.

The doctor said to me behind my back, "It's useless to deceive yourself and run away from reality."

"It is true that he isn't Seth!" I lowered my head and said in a tone indicating that I was guilty as well.

"Then go and have a look at him."

The man was covered with a white cloth.

I couldn't see his face.

"Sure."

I pretended to be relaxed. Taking a few steps, I entered the morgue.

When I was one step away from the bed, I felt that my feet suddenly seemed to be filled with lead. And I couldn't move a single step.

The doctor followed me in, walked to the bedside, and asked me, "Do you need me to uncover him for you?"

"No! Don't move!"

I stopped him.

I was so scared.

I didn't know what to do. I wanted to go back, only to find that I couldn't lift my feet.

Seeing me like this, the doctor raised his hand and patted me on the shoulder, "Take a look at him. I think he wants you to see him too."

"Does Seth want me to see him?"

"Is it so?"

The doctor's words seemed to be an encouragement to me. I finally summoned up my courage and took a step forward. Standing in front of the bed, I put my hand on the white cloth. After a long time, I finally made up my mind and lifted the white cloth.

As soon as I lifted a comer, I saw Seth's face.

He closed his eyes. And his face was a little pale, which wasn't dreadfully pale.

He looked as if he had fallen asleep.

"Seth..."
