Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 161

I lowered my eyes and said as if nothing had happened, "I didn't put too much effort into it. I'm going back to work."

"Okay, I'll accompany you there."

Patrick's voice trailed off as well.

However, he held my key tightly in his hand as if he dared not to give it to me.

There was only one day away from the deadline of submittig the work.

My work was almost done. And I modified a few parts of it after rendering it.

Finally, I got to the service desk before noon and copied it to the computer used for the competition.

Jeremy was in charge here.

When he saw me, he smiled and said, "Miss Archer, thank you for what you did for me last time."

"It's okay. It's not your fault. It's his fault."

I waved my hands. I didn’t dare to talk to Jeremy further at the thought that Patrick might appear like a ghost at any time.

After I was done copying the work onto the

computer, I came out and happened to see Mabel.

She was going inside.

I acted discreetly and followed her in.

She looked at me and said with dissatisfaction, "Why are you following me?"

"I am on guard against a villain," I said flatly.

I had long known who Mabel was.

When I was having lunch at noon, I heard her tell others that she had already got her work done and submitted it early.

In that case, it was a bit strange for her to come here now.

Hearing my words, Mabel was so angry that her face changed, "What are you talking about?"

"Isn't it?" Although it was just a guess, I stood still and looked at Mabel, "I think you know the best as for who is behind Nancy's matter!"

"It's none of my business!"

"How come?" I looked at Mabel, "Even though you saw Nancy, how could you summon all the participants to Patrick's room in a short time back then?"

I said loudly, "Unless you've known that such a thing would happen early!" "I... It has nothing to do with me!"

Hearing my words, Mabel was obviously at a loss as for what to do.

Her reaction was the best evidence.

Although Mabel was usually arrogant, I found out from the plagiarism incident last time that as long as I poked her where she hurt, she would lose her self-control.

As we were quarreling, Jeremy kindly asked on the side, "Miss Mabel, it's almost 12 o'clock. Do you still need to back up your work?"

"Yeah. I've modified my work. So I have to back it up again."

Mabel said as she took out a U disk and began to back up her work.

I stood next to her and said to Jeremy, "Assistant Jeremy, I have to tell you something specifically. Last time, when you were not there, my work was the same as hers. Later, it was proved that she copied my work. This time, if there were any conflicts between her work and my work again, remember that she revised her work after I did."

"What do you mean? I don't care to copy your work at all!"

Hearing my words, Mabel became anxious.

I glanced at her and said, "I didn't say that you surely would plagiarize my work this time. Why are you so excited? Are you..."

"Of course not!"

Mabel rolled her eyes at me and left without saying any more words to me.

When I saw her leave, I also went out. And I heard Jeremy shouting at me from behind, "Miss Archer."

"What's the matter?"

I looked back.

Jeremy hesitated for a moment as if he were thinking about what to say.

After a while, he said, "The three judges will arrive here tomorrow morning."

"Yes."

I nodded and looked at Jeremy suspiciously.

I had been informed about this matter before. And I had already known it.

I always felt that he wanted to say something else.

But I didn't ask him in the end.

When I returned to the room, Patrick was holding a computer in his arms, sending emails.
