Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 86

That afternoon, Lisa went back to her home and came back to my house at night. After that, she took me out with her.

When she saw my outfit, she criticized me.

Then she personally selected a long sweater for me. Originally, I thought I should wear a pair of trousers to match it. But Lisa asked me to wear long boots and thick stockings instead.

It was winter season now. And the weather couldn't be colder.

Although she said that we didn't need to walk outside, I wore two layers of silk stockings.

Only after that did I go out to have dinner with her.

After the meal, Lisa took a taxi.

After getting on the car, I heard Lisa say to the driver, "Hello, please drive us to the Queen Bar."

"The expense there is very high. We'd better not go there."

When I heard this name, I quickly stopped Lisa.

I knew Queen Bar, which was sort of one of the most expensive bars in City Y.

Previously, there were some reports on the Internet saying that some playboys from wealthy families often hung around here.

"Just go there. It's someone else's treat. Don't be afraid."

Lisa was tall. As she raised her arm, she held me in her arms.

I had no choice but to agree.

The taxi arrived at Queen Bar soon. As soon as I got out of the car, I was surprised to see the luxury cars parked by the roadside at the entrance of the bar.

These cars all cost at least one million dollars. Among them, at a glance, I saw many sports cars that cost at least ten million dollars.

This scene was no worse than that in the underground parking lot of Unit No.1, City Y.

Lisa took me to the door. Immediately, someone came to hit on her. But Lisa took me in her arms and walked inside.

We walked all the way inside. Lisa took me to the front of a semi-open table with familiarity.

I took a look and found that someone had been sitting there.

"Seth...¹

When I saw Seth, I couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Lisa smiled and said, "Mr. Hyde, I told you that you surely wouldn't treat me in vain today."

"Sit down." Seth stood up, left the sofa for two persons to us, and sat on the single sofa by himself.

Then he handed the wine menu to us and said to Lisa, "Caroline doesn't drink. What would you like to drink? Order it by yourself."

"Caroline does drink." Lisa handed me the wine menu and patted me on the shoulder, "Have a good drink. After you get drunk and are done with the throwing up, you will have nothing to do with that d*mn man from tomorrow on."

"What's wrong?"

Hearing Lisa's words, Seth was a little puzzled.

Lisa was a straightforward person who would never be able to keep a secret. She leaned close to Seth and told him about my divorce.

Seth looked at me and frowned slightly, "A while ago, you withdrew your complaint. I thought it was a little strange. But I didn't ask you..."

I lowered my eyes.

Holding the wine menu in my hand, I couldn't help but think of how Patrick had forced me to withdraw the complaint. Then I said to Lisa, "Help me order it. I want to drink some strong alcohol. You're right. I need to forget him."

In fact, I had been drunk yesterday.

I didn't forget him and was in more pain instead.

I knew that I was deceiving myself. But I told myself that it should be that I hadn't got genuinely drunk.

Lisa ordered a bottle of wine called Magellan.

Seth tried to persuade her. But she said, "Let's drink together."

Soon, a waiter brought in the wine and a bucket of ice.

Then he opened the wine for us, poured a glass of wine for each of us, and went out.

Lisa picked up the wine glass and said, "Cheers! Let's toast for Charlotte, who is back to be single!"

Seth and I picked up the wine as well.

When I saw Seth, I found that he was also looking at me. The light in the bar was dim. But I could still see that his eyes were flashing slightly.

I couldn't help but think of what he had said before.

He once had said that he hoped that he could be my first candidate after my divorce.

But in front of Lisa, I didn't know what to say. So I just clinked glasses with them and drank up the wine.
