Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 218

The happy time between Patrick and me was always like a shooting meteor, which was fleeting.

So were the paintings I had painted for him.

On each painting, Patrick looked so handsome.

"Could it be that I wouldn't have any more chances to paint him in the future?"

I felt extremely complicated in my heart.

When I was packing up her things, Lisa came back from her work. When she saw that there were a lot more things at her home, she frowned and asked, "Is Patrick indeed going to break off his connections with you?"

"It should be so."

Thinking of the fact that he refused my proposal of getting married, I thought that he probably had been thinking about how to end his relationship with me for a long time.

Seeing that I wasn't in a good mood, Lisa didn't go on talking. She directly put her arms around my neck and said, "Oh, forget it. See? You helped me to clean up my house so well. Even though he doesn't love you, I love you.

Tell me what you want to eat at night. I'll treat you as a reward for you to clean up my house."

"I don't..."

"Don't refuse me. I'll stay here for less than half a month. And when it is Christmas, I am going to be busy again. The food abroad tastes so terrible. You can consider it as accompanying me to enjoy food."

Knowing that I was going to turn down her request, Lisa interrupted me.

"Alright."

I couldn't overwhelm her verbally.

When we were checking the restaurants on a food- evaluation app, wondering where we should have dinner, Lisa's cell phone rang

She looked at the caller ID on the cell phone. As Lisa saw that Roger was calling her, her face changed.

After hesitating for a while, she turned on the speaker mode of her cell phone and said in a bad tone, "What do you want?"

"Beauty, I heard that when you celebrated your birthday back then, you were just having a small party with my sister-in-law. So today, I specially chose a special place. And I have prepared cakes for you. Can I hold another birthday party for you?"

On the other side of the phone, Roger sounded quite enthusiastic.

Lisa rejected him directly, "No, you can't."

"Don't do that. I've booked everything ready." This was the style in which Roger would usually handle the situation.

Lisa was about to refuse further. Then she glanced at her and said, "Alright. Ask your brother to show up there as well."

"Ah?" Roger was stunned for a moment. But he quickly came to his senses, "Okay, no problem! I'll ask him!"

After saying that, Roger hung up the phone.

The result was within my expectation.

Patrick wouldn't come.

But Roger didn't want to give up. He pestered Lisa persistently and tried every means to persuade her. Finally, Lisa directly made an appointment with him in a hot pot restaurant.

Although Roger was reluctant, he still agreed.

He chose a high-end hot pot restaurant.

It was a hot pot restaurant with private boxes available.

After we went in, Roger sat down first and ordered all kinds of meats, including the Kobe beef and New Zealand mutton.

In the end, he took out a bottle of champagne from his bag.

I didn't know about wine. But Lisa became quite happy when she saw the wine. She asked, "Louis Crystal?"

"Well, Beauty Lisa, you surely are an expert of wine."

Seeing that Lisa recognize what kind of wine it was, Roger had a proud look on his face.

After Roger ordered the dishes, the waiter asked, "May I ask what kind of hot pot soup do you want?"

"Double-flavor hot pot," Roger said.

"All-spicy-flavor hot pot," Lisa said.

The two of them's answers were completely different.

Roger looked at Lisa and said, "Let's order Double-flavor hot pot. I can't eat spicy food."

"No, it's my birthday. It's up to me." Lisa didn't seem to have any intention of changing her mind.

Helplessly, Roger had no choice but to agree.

Although Roger looked like a playboy, he and Lisa had a lot of common topics after they sat together today. Instead, I sat next to them as if I were a third wheel.

I didn't speak. And I was only responsible for eating.

A bottle of champagne was quickly emptied. Originally, Roger wanted to ask someone to send him some beer. But Lisa directly refused and ordered several bottles of dark beer.
