Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 157

I didn't respond. And I just hugged Nancy.

She hadn't yet stabilized her emotions completely. So I dared not to ask her about what had happened. Neither did I dare to move.

I was afraid that if I asked a question or loosened my grip, Nancy would pull her hair.

I hugged Nancy like this for more than half an hour.

During this period, Nancy had been staring in the direction of the bathroom. And she kept waving her hands up and down.

Moreover, she kept touching the part between her legs from time to time.

It seemed that she felt very uncomfortable there.

"Nancy, Nancy, go take a shower. I'll help you."

I felt that no matter how hard Nancy tried, her body temperature wouldn't go down. Only then did I realize that she had taken a dose of strong medicine.

However, there was no other way.

Nancy nodded and followed me to the bathroom. After the shower head was turned on, the warm water fell, making both Nancy's body and my body soaked wet.

Nancy lowered her head as the water poured on her body. But she still kept touching herself with her hands.

In the sounds of the water flowing, I heard her saying, "Charlotte Archer, I'm not feeling well. Find a man for me."

"... Well, hold onto it. It won't be long before it's over."

Only a few men were living in such a large resort.

And they were two male colleagues who took part in the final with us, Patrick, and Jeremy.

Patrick's bodyguards lived here as well.

In my opinion, it was she who would be the one to suffer the loss if I asked a random man to help her relieve the "poison".

Time ticked by.

I accompanied Nancy to stand in the water for nearly an hour.

Only by doing so did the heat in Nancy's body gradually subside. And she stopped moving her hands haphazardly. After that, she leaned against my body as if she were exhausted.

She whispered, "Thank you."

"It's okay." Knowing that the effect of Nancy's medicine should be almost subsided, I hugged her and turned off the shower head. Then I took a bath towel from the side and wrapped her up, saying, "Clean your body. I'll get you some clothes with which you can get changed first."

It was summer now. Although it was at night, it was still very hot here. As long as she got changed into a set of dry clothes, her body and hair would dry soon.

After she changed her clothes, I also dried myself and made her a cup of hot tea. Then I asked her, "What happened?"

Nancy took the water over and shook her head confusedly, "I don't know. I only remember that I went back to my room to work on the design after dinner. I suddenly felt thirsty in my mouth and hot

in my body. But I don't remember what happened later."

"Then where... where did you have dinner?"

"In the restaurant. Everyone was basically here." All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Looking at the depressed look on Nancy's face, I couldn't help but ask, "Then, among so many rooms, why did you go to Patrick's room..."

In fact, as soon as I finished my words, I regretted it.

Nancy's words that day had actually revealed her standpoint.

Her feelings for Patrick had gone beyond what a subordinate should feel for her superior.

This kind of medicine probably could reveal people's true thoughts.

Seeing that I didn't finish my words, Nancy had guessed what I was thinking about. She smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, I don't know why I went to his place. Maybe I had such a thought in my heart." "But don't worry." Nancy looked at me, "Mr. Cowell won't fall in love with me. I took a look at him when I left. I stood naked in front of him and threw myself into his arms. He didn't have any reaction. It seems that he indeed isn't interested in me."

"He..."

I wanted to comfort Nancy. But I couldn't help but think of the good days I had enjoyed with Patrick.

At that time, he couldn't be more lustful.

Nancy looked at me and curled up the corner of her eyes, "You're blushing. What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing."

I shook my head.

Nancy reached out to hug me and said softly, "Thank you, Charlotte Archer. If it weren't for you this time, I probably wouldn't have the courage to live on anymore."

"I was late there. If I had been there earlier, I probably would have gone ahead of the colleagues..."

When I said this, I couldn't help but find the situation strange.

If something had happened to Patrick, he surely would have informed Jeremy first.

Even though Mabel said that she had seen Nancy on the way, she couldn't have called all the colleagues who participated in the final to watch the show in such a short time.

Unless...

I was a little confused on my mind.

Nancy seemed to have seen through everything. She straightened up and smiled, "That's right, I was calculated. So I surely can't participate in the final."

"How could it be? It is an accident. What does it have to do with the final?" "It's okay. Take out your work. And I'll check on it to you."

Nancy's expression was indifferent. It seemed that she had figured out everything. And she had no intention of continuing to discuss this topic with me.

After that, I showed her the latest draft I had drawn.

Nancy shook her head repeatedly.

She pointed out a lot of problems to me. Although she was a very kind person at ordinary times, she was sharp-tongued as she helped me check on the issues of my work.

Instead of beating around the bush, she was very straightforward.

Hearing her words, I hoped that I could go back to college and restudy the design.

After she finished her words, I said with a sad look on my face, "How about I give up the final?"

In fact, I didn’t have any hope of getting bonus at all.

Nancy raised her hands and touched my hair. Smiling, she said, "It's alright. After all, I am by your side, aren't I?"

"You? I won't use your design!"

Her words reminded me of Mabel's words.

Seth had enlightened me on my work of the preliminary contest. And when it came to my work in the second round, it was somewhat dramatic.

I had to rely on myself in the final round. It didn't matter to me even if I couldn't get any prize.

Nancy burst into laughter, "Who told you that I'm going to ask you to use my design? I'm telling you my thoughts."

"Hmm? Your thoughts?"

I was a little confused.

That night, Nancy taught me about the design in the room.

When it came to this kind of design, she reminded mewhat the client's request for it would be and what should I pay attention to.

She taught me based on her own experience. And every word she said seemed to be enlightening for me.

By the time she finished instructing me with all kinds of things, the sky outside had turned dark. And there was a hint of light on it.

The sun was about to rise.

Nancy stretched herself, intending to leave. I took her by the hand and said, "Let's sleep together. Don't go back."

A big bed of 1.8 meters' length could accommodate her and me both.

She hesitated and nodded.

I, who was so sleepy, fell asleep as soon as I lay on the bed.

By the time I woke up again, Nancy had already disappeared.

I looked around the room, only to find that the clothes she had worn yesterday were washed and hung outside.

At that time, I thought she had gone back to her room.

However, I went to the dining hall for lunch at noon. Several people who were participating in the competition were sitting at a table while talking to each other. When they saw me coming, they all looked at me unanimously.

And they were whispering.

I didn't want to talk to them. So I ordered a set for myself. Then I ate my lunch

Seeing that I didn't respond. Mabel cleared her throat and asked in a loud voice, "Oh, Charlotte Archer, don't you know that Nancy has left?"

"What?"

My mind went blank for a moment.

"She said she would quit the final early this morning." Mabel put down the chopsticks and said with a proud look on her face, "It makes sense. We all saw what she had done yesterday. And she surely won't stay here shamelessly!"

After she said that, a male colleague next to her said obscenely, "Hey, it's a pity that I didn't have a cell phone with me back then. Otherwise, I surely would have taken a few pictures of her."
