The Masterpiece of Leaving：Prepared A Perfect Stand-In For Him novel Chapter 64

Instinctively, I struck the person's face with the back of my hand.

"It's me, Cathy!" the person exclaimed.

Then they turned on a faint light using their cellphones.

Through that dim light, I saw a man with short hair.

He had a spirited yet somewhat aloof and disdainful face.

The man also recognized me clearly. The concerned look in his eyes instantly turned cold, and then, with disdain, he pushed me away, saying, "How could it be you?"

Only now did I fully recognize the person in front of me: "Robert?"

Apparently, Robert had mistaken me for Cathy just now.

Stepping back several paces, Robert's lips twisted in annoyance. From his nostrils, he let out a contemptuous snort.

He used the same handkerchief to wipe his hands, right in front of me.

Without saying a word, it was enough to make me understand that I was not welcome here.

I knew he detested me, and I had no intention of staying to witness his displeasure. I raised my foot and headed outside.

"Navier, are you really that disgusting?" Robert spoke up again.

He used force to toss the crumpled handkerchief to the ground, then stepped on it with his polished leather shoes.

He continued, "Do you think by imitating Cathy's voice and dressing similarly, I would spare you a second glance? You're naturally a monkey; even if you put on an emperor's robe, you'll never become an emperor; it's just ridiculous! I advise you not to disgust people any further!"

Robert's words were harsh and offensive; every sentence was a jab.

As he finished, he put his hands in his pockets and walked forward, looking down on me with disdain.

"Mr. Freeman," I called back.

I walked up to Robert, not angry at all. Instead, I looked at him with a smile that was not quite a smile.

"Where is Mr. Freeman currently residing?"

Robert looked at the woman in front of him, puzzled.

He had just been criticized harshly by me, yet I could still smile and show concern about where he was living?

"I bet you must live by the seaside, so carefree!" I followed up with a remark that struck like a slap.

Caught off guard, Robert blushed with embarrassment.

His once proud face suddenly turned dark, as black as coal.

In the past, while at Aubrey's residence due to his relationship with Aubrey, no matter how much disdain Robert showed towards me, I could endure it without reacting.

But now I was divorced from Aubrey, and there was no reason to tolerate the sarcasm of his friend.

After speaking, I casually pursed my lips.

A nonchalant smile graced my indifferent face, and I didn't say much, but it was enough for Robert to clearly see my mocking him!

"You!" He couldn't help but grit his teeth in anger.

"In this world, there are so many people wearing Chanel; are they all trying to imitate Miss Cathy?" I didn't give him a chance to speak and continued.

Robert widened his eyes, looking at me with shock.

In his memory, this woman always appeared restrained and inexperienced; even when he was unkind to me in front of Aubrey, I didn't dare to utter a word. But now I dared to confront him like this?

Robert was also born into a prestigious family and had a high opinion of himself. When had he ever been confronted like this before? His face stiffened with tension, and the anger in his eyes was evident.

I had no intention of appeasing him, continuing, "Furthermore, Mr. Freeman seems to have hearing problems. Despite visiting the Spencer residence so many times, you didn't know this is my real voice. I suggest Mr. Freeman visits an ear specialist when you have the time, and maybe also get your brain checked."

"...Even if you're the young master of the Freeman family, if your mind is not clear, you're just asking for ridicule!"

Having said that, I couldn't be bothered with him any longer, shook my head, and walked away with big strides.

He... was just scolded?

I walked away carefree, leaving Robert staring at my departing figure. I could feel his gaze burning into my back, and I knew his fingers were probably clenching and unclenching in anger. Sure enough, I soon heard a heavy punch hitting the railing followed by his curse, "Damn it!"

After handling all that needed to be dealt with, I returned home. I was truly happy and closed my eyes with a sense of satisfaction.

Tomorrow, I will go back to my father's house, so I had to wake up early.

My sleep quality had actually been quite poor before.
