Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 363

"What?" Hearing her words, I was incredulous, "Who paid the remaining fees for her?"

"As for that, I have no idea about it." The nurse shrugged.

Then, she asked me to fill out some forms for transferring Jessica to another mental hospital.

While Shelton went to contact his connections and get Jessica transferred out of here.

After filling out the forms, I sat there thinking about the nurse's words. After finishing contacting his connections, Shelton said to the nurse, "We will transfer Jessica to the rehabilitation center of Holy Spirit Hospital."

As the nurse heard these words, her face immediately changed. And she said, "Who are you? It is not like you can transfer her to Holy Spirit Hospital at will."

Shelton looked at the nurse, thought for a moment, and said, "My name is Shelton Cowell. At the Holy Spirit Hospital, I am.."

"It turned out to be you, Dr. Shelton!" Before Shelton could finish his words, the nurse immediately knew who he was, saying, "Oh, people in other industries don't know you. In our industry, everyone knows you. You are now someone popular in our industry."

Shelton didn't say a word.

Because the hospital was relatively far away, it would take some time for the ones from Holy Spirit Hospital to pick us up here.

During this period, the nurse spoke to Shelton nonstop. Even though Shelton ignored her, she went on talking at will. In the end, she stated the purpose, "Dr. Shelton, there are so many hospitals under your charge. Can you transfer me to another hospital? The work here is heinous."

"I will contact your dean and ask him to organize the hospital," Shelton said flatly.

The nurse was unwilling to give up, saying, "That's the Dean's business. I... I have been very nice to Jessica on usual days."

"It's impossible." Shelton immediately refused, saying, "I've given you the money. If you want to change your job, go for it. What I paid you can help you live a stable life for a while."

Hearing him mention this, the nurse couldn't say anything more.

The car of Holy Spirit Hospital was still on the way. So I wanted to go up to see Jessica, which the nurse immediately refused. She said, "Don't go there. If something happens, I can't afford it. Let's wait for the car to pick her up directly."

Seeing that Shelton didn't say a word, I knew that he didn't want me to go there either.

Although a skinny woman seemed to be approachable...

She was aggressive.

About two hours later, the car from Holy Spirit Hospital finally arrived. The nurses went to pick up Jessica. As soon as the door of the ward was pushed open, one of them directly threw up.

Because of what I said before, Jessica left with us quite cooperatively.

However, because of the particularity of her illness, the car that came to pick her up wasn't an ambulance but one where the police detained the prisoners.

Instead of sitting with us, she was seperated from us by a glass wall.

Without any luggage, Jessica only had two dolls.

She smelt stinky. All the nurses were unwilling to get close to her. Only I stayed with her.

I had told Jessica that there would be a teacher in the new place. Because of this, Jessica, who was quite cooperative, didn't resist at all. Sitting there obediently, she held the two cloth dolls in her arms.

On the way back, I asked her across the glass wall, "What are the names of your babies?"

"My elder daughter's name is Caroline. And the younger one is named Charlotte."

Jessica replied seriously.

I felt sour in my heart.

The baby named Charlotte shall be me. It turned out that Jessica named Caroline Archer as Caroline.

I asked again, "Then, what kind of adults do you want them to become after they grow up?"

Jessica looked at me. On her skinny face, there was a pair of bright eyes. Hearing my question, she seemed to see the light and said, "They can do everything they want. As long as they like it and that they are happy, I am fine with it."

When Jessica spoke, she curled up the corner of her cracked lips, revealing a beautiful curve.

I looked at her, feeling overwhelmingly complicated in my heart.

Why? Why was life so unfair to her?

The car drove all the way to the rehabilitation center of Holy Spirit Hospital. Shelton had specially arranged a suite for Jessica there.

The first thing she arrived there was to take a shower.
