Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 51

Caroline sat on the other side of the glass wall without ever moving her body. A mocking smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. And she said, "Is that so? Then you have to come out first."

Seeing that I was excited, the police directly pressed me down and warned, "Behave yourself!"

I was held down by the police and couldn't move. But Caroline pretended to say, "Officer, Caroline was confused for a moment. Don't make things difficult for her."

Later, I sat down on the chair. But the police were standing behind me for one step away.

"Caroline Archer, as I said, I don't want to be Mrs. Cowell."

I softened my voice.

Now, I even thought that as long as Caroline could withdraw the complaint, I probably could solve this matter easily.

Of course, Caroline knew what was going on in my mind.

She sat outside and put on a pitiful look again, "Charlotte, we're sisters. I value the

kinship between us the most. However, you've attacked me over and over again. Now everyone in our family is very disappointed with you. I'm afraid that if I run into any accident because of my lenience, our parents and Grandmother can't stand this blow."

She mentioned our grandmother.

I seemed to have clutched at straws.

I asked her, "Grandma? Does Grandma know about this?"

"Well..." It seemed that Caroline didn't expect that I would ask this. She quickly nodded and said, "Well, yes, she does. She didn't know what had happened last time. Patrick and I helped you to hide it. But this time, I can't hide it from her anymore. The elders of the two families already know about it."

Hearing Caroline's words, I just wanted to sneer.

"Did she help me keep it from Grandma?"

It surely was Patrick who had wanted to keep the elders in the dark.

This time, it was obvious that Caroline had informed the elders first.

Admittedly, Caroline was fierce.

If it happened once, Rosy and Ned might feel that there was something fishy about it.

But nobody surely would believe that I was innocent after I did it twice.

Caroline's words ascertained me that she wouldn't help me.

So I didn't want to waste my time arguing with her.

I turned around and went back to the detention center.

In the subsequent investigation, I heard that the police used a lie detector to detect whether the worker who had identified me was lying.

As a result, he didn't lie.

Soon, the investigation lasting forone-month ended.

Although I refused to see Seth, he helped me get a lawyer.

However, because of the worker's testimony and the result of the lie detector, I stood on the defender's seat and listened to how the case would be ruled.

Patrick and Caroline were sitting at the hearing area.

"How familiar this process is."

I knew that I surely couldn't reverse the case.

When the first ruling ended, I lost. And the judge announced that I was sentenced to another six months of imprisonment.

When I was taken out of the interrogation hall by the prison guards, I felt as if I had gone back to the days two years ago.

Looking at the handcuffs on my hands, I even felt that if I was in prison again this time, I might not be as lucky as I was last time.

"I'll definitely die inside!"

At this moment, I was in an infinite panic instantly!

My limbs were shaking non-stop.

"Don't... Don't..." I muttered as I raised my head and saw that not far away, Patrick and Caroline were right in front of me!

I suddenly ran up and rushed to Patrick as if I went crazy!

"Plop!" Kneeling in front of Patrick, I grabbed his trousers and pleaded, "Mr. Cowell, I didn't hurt her. I didn't do anything. I beg you. Believe me once. As long as you withdraw your complaint, I promise that I won't go back to City Y for the rest of my life. And I promise that I won't show up in front of you both for the rest of my life!"

I was not supposed to be that gutless.

However, the horrible memory of the previous days in prison as well as the fear of being in prison again made me fail to control myself.

At this moment, my cowardice overwhelmed me!
