Substitute Her to Love You novel Chapter 284

"Yes," I answered without hesitation.

This matter was a little sudden to me, but since I had already agreed, I had to do it.

And I had convinced myself thousands of times in my heart.

Now, no matter who asked me, I would answer without hesitation, "Yes".

Lisa put the chopsticks in her mouth, frowned, and looked at me. After a while, she said, "But I don't think you are happy at all about this. Unlike back then, when you and Patrick just lived together, you..."

"Stop." I interrupted Lisa decisively. "It's all in the past. He's married to Kelsi. There is nothing to say."

"But...”

"Let's talk about something else. I have good news." In order to stop Lisa from continuing, I said to her, "Gina and Jeremy are not my biological parents."

"Really?!" Lisa was shocked by my words.

I told her about the recent events.

Lisa's face was full of surprise. "Oh, I can't believe you didn't tell me about such a big thing! Do you still take me as a friend?"

"It's all right. Shelton has been taking care of me. I am fine."

In the past two weeks, Shelton had been taking care of me.

It could be said that he did it in every possible way.

Besides, Holy Spirit Hospital belonged to him. After he instructed the nurse, even if he was not there, the nurse would come three times an hour for fear that something would happen to me.

Hearing what I said, Lisa curled her lips and said, "Is that Shelton so nice? Why do I always feel that he's just a smiling tiger? The smile is just his mask."

"How could that be?"

When I said this, I felt a little unsure.

In fact, I also felt that I had never really understood Shelton, and he had never really bared his soul to me.

What I saw was just the side that he wanted me to see.

But he really treated me well.

Lisa continued to eat and said nothing.

After the meal, she offered to wash the dishes.

When I was packing up garbage, Lisa still said, "Charlotte, think about it clearly. Although you may not only get married once in your life, there are things that you can't undo."

"Well, I've thought it over."

I answered decisively.

I'd brainwashed myself for this matter a long time ago.

Lisa heard my answer and turned to look at me. "Really?"

"Really! I'm really going to marry him!"

I had agreed to it, and we had also arranged the engagement banquet.

And he treated me very well. How could I hurt his feelings?

Lisa seemed to cannot hold it in any longer. She took off her gloves and placed her hands on my shoulders. She said solemnly, "I, don't, agree!"

"How could you stop me from marrying somebody?" I pretended to roll my eyes at her. A faint smile lifted from my mouth. "He's very nice to me. You know that too."

"But you're not happy. It's better to stay single for the rest of your life than to marry someone you don't love." Lisa held my hands. "Who says that women must get married? You can make money, buy a house and a car, and clothes. Why do you have to get married?"

"We don't marry somebody for him to pay for us."

"Then you really should marry the person you love. Life is so long, and if you live with a person you don't love, it'll be very hard!"

Lisa's words had deeply shaken the faith that I had in myself for a long time.

I looked at her and had really mixed feelings. I couldn't even force a smile.

After a long while, I opened my mouth slightly. "But..."

"But what? I'll tell you, if you get married, you must marry the person you love. If you marry Shelton out of pity, then he is really pitiful!"
