Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 69

In fact, I could relate to the client. After all, a person had died in his new house. And it was true that he couldn't go on living there.

The house was a villa with a market price of millions of dollars. For a small- sized company like Seth's company, which had just been operating for a few years, it simply couldn't afford it at all.

If there was a lawsuit, it would be more difficult for Glorious Seth Design to establish a foothold in the industry. And at that time, it would be on the verge of closing down.

Hearing Angie's words, I couldn't be more guilty.

Anyway, Ronald Weil's matter started everything.

Angie got her coffee and went to the construction site.

I took a car alone to Glorious Seth Design's office.

When I went into the office, I found that nobody was at the front desk. In the office where I used to stay, nobody was seen except for some computers in several compartments.

It seemed that the designers who had worked there before had resigned.

I went to Angie's office again.

I saw that there were a lot of odds and ends on her desk as usual.

After walking around, I finally arrived at Seth's office.

I put my ears on the door and heard that he was speaking on the phone. It seemed that he was borrowing money from someone.

I could tell that his tone sounded very humble.

I was very upset.

"It's all my fault, isn't it?"

I took out the bank card Rosy gave me from my bag and knocked on the door.

Seth was obviously a little upset when he saw me. I could see that his face was very pale and that the dark circles under his eyes looked terrible, indicating that he hadn't slept well for many days.

He barely tried to look less exhausted, put on a smile, and said to me, "Charlotte, what made you come here?"

I put the bank card in his hand, "Seth, there are 1.2 million dollars in it. Although it's a small amount, you can take it first. My grandmother said that my annual dividends will be transferred to this bank card. It's almost at the end of the year. So the money should arrive soon."

However, Seth would never accept my bank card.

He put the bank card back in my hand and curled up the corner of his mouth, "Oh, Charlotte, even if I'm down, I won't ask you for help."

"Seth."

I don't want to embarrass him. But I had known everything going on in Glorious Seth Design and knew that he couldn't hang on any further.

Seth patted my hand and said, "I have something to do. I'm sorry that I can't accompany you today."

After that, he picked up the suit on the hanger and put it on.

The suit, which suited him quite much a few weeks ago, looked much looser on his body at this time.

I went around with an empty stomach in the empty office of Glorious Seth Design. Looking at the empty work stations, I felt very upset.

When I went home in the evening, unexpectedly, Patrick was at home.

I hid in the guest bedroom alone and tried my best to avoid him.

Then I fell asleep on my bed in a daze. It was unknown how long I had been sleeping. Then I heard my cell phone ringing. After that, I took it over and picked it up vaguely.

After that, I put the phone next to my ear.

"Hey, do you know Seth Hyde?"

Over the phone, there was a voice of a young man with a dialect.

These words made me sober in an instat, "Yes!"

Then I looked at the cell phone and saw that the caller ID was Seth.

The one over the phone explained the situation to me. Basically, Seth was drunk. The young man couldn't be accessed to his cell phone since Seth's cell phone was locked with a password. And only the function of dialing the close ones on his cell phone wasn't affected.

And Seth namd me as the only close person on his cell phone...

So the young man called me.

When I thought of Seth's haggard look when I had seen him during the day, I suddenly became nervous.

I promised to go there right away.

After the phone was hung up, I looked at the time and saw that it was 1:20 a.m.

I put on a coat and went out.
