Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 150

"Did you ask her to come here?" Tracy glanced at Jeremy. And her face was full of dissatisfaction.

"I didn't."

Jeremy shook his head.

He looked at me and asked in confusion, "Charlotte Archer, what are you doing here?"

"Me?" I looked at them with an alienated look in my eyes and said, "The reason why I am here is the same as yours!"

It seemed that they all wanted to hide this matter from me.

"You..."

Jeremy looked at me with a face full of displeasure.

It seemed that he wanted to drive me away.

At this time, a doctor came over with a folder. When he saw us, he said, "Is everyone here? If yes, I'll say it."

Jeremy and Tracy looked at me. Although there was dissatisfaction in their eyes, it wasn't good for them to lose their temper in front of the doctor.

The doctor opened the folder in his hand and simply read Rosy's time of being admitted into the hospital, the time of her coma, and some other data.

In the end, he announced that she was braindead.

After announcing that, the doctor looked at us and said, "Please go back and discuss the time to turn off the drone."

"If they turn off the drone, won't Rosy die?"

I spoke first, "I don't agree!"

I wouldn't agree! I surely wouldnn't!

Seth had just died. If Rosy died now, I couldn't accept the loss of two important persons to me.

Tracy rolled her eyes at me and said, "We are the Archer Family. You don't count as a member of the Archer Family at all. Do you have the right to speak here?"

"If you turn off the machine, Grandma will be dead!"

I looked at Tracy.

Tracy said, "Mom has been dead for a long time. But her organs are still working! She is brain- dead. Do you understand what braindead means?"

The doctor looked at us calmly and just said, "Be quiet." Then he left.

He surely had been used to these things.

I understood what brain-dead meant. But I just couldn't accept it. So I said, "But aren't there a lot of news that the brain-dead wake up after they are in a coma for many years?" "Are there?" Tracy immediately laughed, "Don't you find your words ridiculous? It is because it happens rarely that it is covered in the news."

After she said that, she looked at Jeremy and said, "Brother, don't you want to say anything? You know better than me as to what kind of situation the Archer Family is in now. Mom costs us tens of

thousands of dollars a day. And the bill is nearly one million dollars a month. How long can we hold on?"

Jeremy was silent for a long time before he said,"... But we can't turn off the machine today."

It was as if he had made up his mind.

But it couldn't change the fact that his words indicated that he was cold-blooded.

"Then when can we turn off the machine? We have to do it within this month. Or I won't pay the expense anymore!"

Tracy crossed her arms in front of her chest as if she surely would mean her words.

Jeremy's face was full of worry as he said, "Let's go back and discuss it first."

They were in front of me. So It wasn't appropriate for them to discuss in front of me. Because I surely would stop them.

So he had to avoid me.

Caroline saw them quarrel and also persuaded them, "Aunt, Dad, there surely is a solution to every problem. We can't turn off the drone in a hurry. If Grandma can wake up later, won't you regret it?"

Her words shocked me.

On second thought, I wasn't surprised.

After all, Caroline had always been pretending to be nice on the surface.

As for what was going on in her mind, it was unknown. And she surely would make her words sound very pleasant.

Jeremy looked at her with impatience on his face, "If it were in the past, it would be fine. Now you should know more or less as to what's going on at home."

Tracy mocked on the side, "That's right. How about you just let Patrick pay for the expense? Anyway, such a little amount of money is just a drop in the bucket for him." At the mention of Patrick, Caroline looked embarrassed, "I... I'll tell him about it. But I don't think it's a good idea. After all, it's our family's business."

Tracy responded, "That's right. Forget it. Let him invest the money in Archer's Group. Now Archer's Group is the place where the money is needed. We don't need to owe him a favor because of such a trivial matter."

Her expression seemed to indicate that she thought it was a matter of course.

But when I heard her words, I was burning with anger in my heart.

"Such a trivial matter?"

"Rosy's life seems to be atrivial matter to her..."

"I'll also think of a way to get the money."

After all, I wouldn’t let them turn off Rosy's breathing machine.

All three of them looked at me with different expressions.

Tracy, in particular, looked like she was watching a good show. She smiled and said, "Okay, Charlotte Archer, I'll wait for you to take money out."

After that, she left.

Jeremy glanced at me and left.

Suddenly, Caroline and I were the only ones left.

I wanted to go. But I heard Caroline, who was behind me, say, "How about I ask Mr. Cowell for some money?"

I paused instantly.

I looked at her and asked in confusion, "Don't you have any money?"

Caroline looked a little embarrassed and shook her head, "No, I recently checked the transaction record of my bank card. In recent years, Mr. Cowell gave me money every month. And the credit card I used was also given by Mr. Cowell." "Oh, I see."

"Patrick is indeed capable."

"While hooking up with me, he is supporting Caroline."

For no reason, I was very angry in my heart.

I squinted at Caroline and said, "You are physically fit. Why don't you go out to make money?"

"I..." Caroline said with embarrassment, "I can't do anything. You know well that some of my college homework was done by you. The money I make a month won't be even enough for me to buy a piece of clothes."

"That's right."

"She is right. She can't do anything. And she certainly couldn't make any money."

"So are you going to be supported by Patrick like this? What if he abandons you one day?"

"Mr. Cowell won't do so."

"Why?"

I didn't understand why Caroline would say so resolutely.

As for the entanglement between Patrick and her, I had been confused about it all the time.

"I..." Caroline took a look at me. And the look in her eyes was a little complicated. She hesitated for a long time before she said, "Anyway, he surely will support me. I am confident about it."

"Then, did you love Patrick because of his money or who he really is?"

I had been wanting to ask her this question for a long time.

It was just that I had been in a bad relationship with Caroline before that I didn't have a chance to do so.

"Both."

As expected, Caroline's words surprised me.

After that, she left.

She didn't say anything like I should keep it as a secret for her as if it didn't matter to her.

She was sure that whatever happened, Patrick would always love her.

Did Caroline indeed have lost her memory? Or was she faking it?

On the contrary, I became more and more confused about it.

After leaving the hospital, I didn't go home. Instead, I went to an agency at the entrance of the residential quarter, intending to know how much my house was worth now.

The bid of the real-estate agency was 14 million dollars. But it wasn't guaranteed that my house would be sold soon.

There were two days to go before the final began. And I didn't know how long I would be away.

If my house was sold out during the period I was away, I couldn't come back.

And I wasn't at ease about leaving 14 million dollars to the real-estate agency to take care of it.

After weighing the pros and cons, I got home and found Tracy's contact number. Instead of calling her, I added her on Facebook first.

After she approved my request, I sent her a video about a call she had made before Rosy had conducted an operation in the hospital.
