Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 87

I, who had been overwhelmingly drunk, saw the tallest as well as the most conspicuous man among the crowd at a glance.

It was Patrick Cowell.

He was here as well...

Soon, I heard Lisa, who was next to me, say, "F**k. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together."

After careful observation, I found that the cynical playboy, Roger Lance, who had wanted to give Lisa his business card just now, was standing next to Patrick.

Some other people were next to them.

However, these people seemed to be surrounding Patrick and Roger.

While being surrounded by so many people, Patrick and Roger, naturally couldn't see us.

Seth put his arm around my shoulders and said, "Stop looking at them. Let's go."

After that, Seth called a designated driver to send me and Lisa back to my house.

As soon as I got in the car, the car started. And I felt a little dizzy. In order not to throw up in the car, I slept with my eyes closed.

I slept until the next morning.

The next morning, when I opened my eyes, I found that I wasn't at home. Instead, I was in a hotel...

I rubbed my head that was still a little dizzy. After thinking about it carefully for a while, I remembered that I had been drinking with Lisa and Seth last night.

"You're awake."

When I was thinking about what had happened last night, I heard Seth's voice.

Looking up, I saw Seth standing by the door of the bedroom. Although he was wearing a shirt and trousers, his shirt was loosely hanging on his body with the top three buttons being unbuttoned, revealing half of his strong chest muscles.

It was clear that Seth, who got sleepy eyes, had just woken up.

As soon as I saw him, I subconsciously touched my clothes.

I was still wearing the long sweater I had put on yesterday.

Only then was I at ease.

"I'm sorry.Yesterday, I..."

"You fell asleep yesterday. And I didn't know where your house was. So I had no choice but to bring you here." Seth seemed to sense that I was touching the clothes on my body based on the movement of the quilt. So he explained, "Don't worry. I just took off your coat for you."

"Thank you..."

I lowered my head slightly.

It was Monday today, he and I both had to go to work. Fortunately, based on my job responsibility, I didn't need to sit in the office.

But I had arranged things to do in the morning.

Seth and I finished cleaning ourselves up briefly. After coming out of the room, we stood at the entrance of the elevator and waited for the elevator.

To my surprise, the door of

the elevator opened.

And there were two people inside.

One was Patrick.

And the other one was Caroline.

The four of us looked into each other's eyes. I couldn't be more embarrassed, feeling that I had been caught cheating on the scene!

When I instinctively shrank back, I felt that Seth backed me with his arms and held me in his arms as he said to Patrick, "Good morning, Mr. Cowell."

I looked up and saw that the look on Patrick's face was terribly gloomy. Although there was no expression on his face, his black eyes seemed to be brewing a terrible storm.

Patrick didn't say anything. But Caroline smiled proudly and said, "Good morning, Charlotte, why is your face looking so pale? Could it be that you were exhausted last night?"

Her words made Patrick's face even gloomier.

Seth and I came out of a room in a hotel. And Caroline said that I had been worn out tired at night. It was justifiable for anyone to have random guessing about what had happened between Seth and me last night.

But Seth didn't seem to intend to explain. He held me in his arms and was about to enter the elevator. But Patrick walked out directly and blocked the entrance of the elevator. Then he looked down at Seth and said, "Minister Hyde, check the time. You are late, right?"

As I saw the scene, even if Patrick didn't finish his words, I would know what he wanted to do!
