Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 98

I glanced at Seth. Seeing that he nodded, I picked up the call.

And I turned on the speakers mode.

Over the phone, it was someone from the hospital in Seth's hometown, saying that Seth's mother had drunk pesticide and was being rescued in the hospital!

After the one over the phone finished speaking, Seth rushed to the door without looking back!

I followed him. But I rushed to the boarding counter on the side first and gave him the boarding pass, saying that we probably can't board the plane and that we will get our luggage back in a few days.

By the time I ran out again, I could no longer see Seth.

I called him.

After a long time, Seth answered my call, saying that he was in a taxi and that he had bought the latest train ticket back to his hometown.

After he said that, he added, "You don't have to go there with me."

'TH go."

I said decisively.

This matter has something to do with me. And I must go there with him.

And if something did happen to Seth's mother, I probably would have to bear the guilt for the rest of my life.

Fortunately, I got on a taxi right after Seth. After I got to the train station and got out of the taxi, I saw him in front of me.

I chased after him.

Upon seeing me, Seth looked apologetic as he said, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect my mother to be so impulsive."

"No. She did so because she loves you," I said in a low voice, "I admire that you have a mother who loves you so much."

Even I said so, I thought that this maternal love looked a little deformed under this situation.

Seth and I took the train to his hometown. After getting out of the train, we immediately took a taxi to the hospital.

After we entered the hospital, we saw Seth's father sitting in the corridor.

Seth rushed in, "Dad."

Originally, his father thought that Seth had come here alone. And he wiped the tears from his face and said, "Seth, you're finally here! If you're here one second later, you probably can't see your mother for the last time!"

His words made my heart skip a beat!

"Uncle..."

I shouted as I stood on the side.

At this time, Seth's father noticed my presence. The sadness on his face immediately turned into anger. And he got up and raised his fist, intending to hit me!

Seth was so startled that he flashed away and helped me to stop his father!

Seth's father's eyes were red with anger. Although he was stopped by Seth, he scolded me loudly. "It's all because of you. You seduced my son and asked him to take you abroad! It's all because of you!"

"Dad, it has nothing to do with her."

Seth took his father in his arms.

But Seth's mother was dying now. And his father couldn't take in others' advice at all. Then he pointed to me and said, "You have been seduced by her. And you won't take my advice at all! When she came to our house last time, I felt that she had a seductive look and that she wouldn't be someone righteous!"

"Dad, stop it!"

Seth stopped his father from saying anything more.

But his father was getting more and more excited.

I looked at them in a trance and began to wonder if the two of them right in front of me were the two ones I had seen during the New Year holiday.

Why did they change their attitude towards me so dramatically within such a short time?

Being stopped by Seth, Seth's father finally sat down on the chair and said, "Seth, let me tell you, if your mother dies here today, I surely will let this woman die with her. I won't be even afraid of being imprisoned!"

"No. Mom will be fine."

Seth patted his father's hand to comfort him.

Judging from the look on his face, I could see that he was in a dilemma.

We had been sitting in the corridor of the emergency room for half an hour. After that, the light of the emergency room went out.

When the doctor came out, Seth stood up first and asked, "Doctor, how is my mother?"

The doctor looked at Seth and then looked at us behind him. Then he sighed and said, "She is out of danger. But she needs to rest in bed. And she can't get out of bed for a short time."

"I will take good care of my mother!"

I promised him.

When I went home that day, I saw Caroline again in the residential quarter, which was probably a coincidence.

Seeing me, she seemed to have seen a ghost as she asked, "Haven't you gone abroad?"

"You're living in such a good condition. How can I bear to leave you?"

I looked at her and sneered.

In fact, at this time, I didn't give a damn about whether Caroline was living a good life or not.

But Caroline didn't think so. She looked at me with vigilance and said, "What do you mean? Let me tell you, you'd better delete those photos as soon as possible! Otherwise, if my reputation is ruined, I will implicate you!"

As Caroline spoke, her face was full of ferocity.

In fact, I occasionally saw the news on the TV that Caroline was so successful in her career now. Although she only presented a set of design works, she had been highly praised.

And she even attended Milan Fashion Week by virtue of this set of design works.

But after that, she didn't have any new works. It was March now. But she had no intention of presenting her design works for the summer clothing.

I guessed that she wanted to stop in time so that she could maintain her reputation for the years to come.

"Okay." I looked at her and smiled faintly, "We're sisters. And we are born on the same date. Naturally, we have to die together."

Now, I was indeed alone. And I had nothing to lose.

But Caroline was more greedy than I thought.

Hearing my words, she smiled disdainfully, "Nobody wants to die with you, okay? I am going to be Mrs. Cowell soon. I will live in the best house with the most handsome and rich husband in City Y. At that time, I will have plenty of ways to get the design photos back."

"Are you sure?"

I thought of what Patrick had once said.

It seemed that Caroline knew nothing about what Patrick had done.

But none of these mattered. I picked up my cell phone and directly posted a post that I had done editing early on the social media platforms.

I did so in case I would be in more trouble because of the undue delay.
