Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 254

After I said that, Patrick's eyes dimmed. Fearing that he would misunderstand me, I smiled slightly and added, "Ever since my parents left me, I realized that what they said was right."

"Your parents..."

"They died in a flight disaster."

When I spoke, I had a calm look on my face. I was neither sorrowful nor sad.

It wasn't because I wasn't talking about my own matters.

Instead, it was because, before this, I had figured out how I should tell others if this matter happened to me.

I thought that with my character, I surely wouldn't cry or show too much pain.

Looking at me, Patrick was silent for a long time. Then he said, "Sorry, I didn't know about this."

"It's all right. It is a matter of the past. I have to move on."

As I put down all the documents in my hands on the table one after another, my cell phone rang.

It was a call from Calvin.

I talked to him about some things about the project on the phone.

When I hung up the phone and looked up again, I saw that Patrick had finished his coffee and that he was washing the mug by the sink on the side.

Seeing this, I was stunned.

It seemed to be the first time I had seen Patrick washing something by himself.

His action made me feel sour in my heart.

He and Kelsi should get along with each other well.

For a man like Patrick, he casually washed his mug after finishing the coffee, showing that he surely was on good terms with his wife...

After washing the mug, he looked up at me.

I looked away quickly and took out my cell phone, pretending that I was going to make a call.

However, I couldn't suppress the sadness in his heart.

"I have to go now."Patrick's voice came from the direction of the sink.

"Okay." I forced a smile and looked at him, "Goodbye, Mr. Cowell."

He opened the door and left.

I finally didn't have to suppress my emotions. Squatting down in the corner little by little, I buried my face between my knees.

My heart was filled with endless regret.

I indeed shouldn't have come to City Y.

Originally, I thought I had let go of him before coming here. It wasn't until I saw him that...

I knew that I didn't let him go. Instead, it was because I couldn't see him anymore that I didn't think of him for the time being.

"The excitement of Nirvana, the urge to enjoy a glorious rebirth..."

My cell phone rang.

It was my personal phone number.

Normally, only two people would call me at this number. One was Ryan Teague. And the other was Shelton.

It was Shelton who was calling me.

After I picked up the call, Shelton spoke first, "Where are you? I just went to the office you mentioned. The staff there said that you had moved to a new studio this morning."

"Well, Patrick arranged a studio for me. I couldn't refuse him. So I moved out."

I wouldn't hide anything from Shelton.

I told Shelton the address of this studio.

Soon, he came with a lunch box.

After he opened the lunchbox, I saw three dishes inside.

Admittedly, the dishes cooked by Shelton were quite delicious. When he lived in the studio of Town S over these years, even Glenn loved the dishes cooked by him.

This time, I, who had been confident about my cooking skills, felt that Shelton's cooking skills were much better than mine.

"You should be hungry. Eat first before doing anything else," Shelton said as he took out the tableware wrapped in a handkerchief.

"Thank you."

I sat down without being polite to Shelton.

Holding tableware in my hands, I began to eat.
