Substitute Her to Love You novel Chapter 301

"Kidnapping?" I was even more nervous.

However, when it came to this matter, I indeed couldn't do anything about it.

"Based on my husband's and his colleagues' speculation, because Towering High encountered an accident before where its Al laboratory caught fire and the documents inside disappeared, the stock price of Towering High decreased a lot. If the public knew Patrick's situation this time, Towering High would basically be doomed."

Hearing Nancy's words, I was extremely nervous.

In this way, Patrick was quite likely to have been schemed and kidnapped!

"Getting rid of the cocoon in excitement, sensing the impulse of glorious rebirth..."

After hearing Nancy's words, I looked at the computer screen in a daze. At this time, my cell rang.

I looked down. Seeing that it was a call from Shelton, I picked it up.

He asked me to have lunch with him, saying that he happened to be free.

I hesitated for a moment. Finally, I agreed.

I hung up the phone and asked Nancy, "I am going to have lunch with Shelton. Where will you have your lunch?"

"I won't go with you." Nancy shook her head, "I don't want to be a third wheel."

I went downstairs and saw that Shelton was dressed in a white high-necked sweater, a pair of jeans, and a gray-blue overcoat.

He was holding a light pink fur ball in his hands.

Upon seeing me, he walked up to me, unfurled the furry ball at light pink color in his hands, and wrapped it around my neck.

I was stunned.

Only then did I realize that it was a scarf.

"Thank you."

As soon as I finished my words, he bent over directly and kissed me on my lips with his somewhat cold mouth.

However, he kissed me lightly. Then he quickly straightened up with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth as if nothing had happened, asking, "What do you want to eat?"

Instead of answering him, I touched the scarf and asked him, "Well, this is..."

"It's a gift for you. I'm afraid that you'll feel cold." Shelton reached out to help me sort out the scarf and asked me, "Do you like it? A nurse recommended it to me, saying that every other girl has one. So I bought one."

"That's right."

In fact, the way I saw it, a light pink scarf didn't seem to fit the ones at my age.

It was more suitable for the girlish women.

Even so, seeing that it was a sincere gift from Shelton, I didn't tell Shelton my thoughts.

I had some work to do in the afternoon. So Shelton and I went to eat lunch at a fast-food restaurant downstairs.

As we were about to finish our lunch, someone passed by our table with lunch in his hands. Failing to hold the food in his hands stably, he sprinkled some vegetable juice on my clothes.

The vegetable juice was oily. Sol had no choice but to get up and go to the bathroom to clean my clothes.

Fortunately, there were only a few drops of vegetable juice. After washing my clothes with the hand sanitizer in the bathroom, I almost washed off the vegetable juice.

After I was done, I tidied up my clothes and came out of the bathroom.

I came out, only to see that Shelton was making a

call.

Shelton was with his back to me. From the direction of the bathroom, I could see half of his face. Looking over, I found that Shelton looked quite serious.

Although I couldn't hear what he was saying...

But intuition told me that what he was talking about over the phone should have something to do with Patrick.

I slowly approached him and walked to his back, hearing him say, "In terms of this matter, even if he runs away, it won't be to any avail. If the engagement ceremony can't be carried out smoothly, I'll destroy all the Al documents. Even if I have to go to hell, I'll drag him down with me at any cost."

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.

With a few brief words from Shelton, I stood on the spot as if someone had hit my acupuncture points.

I looked at Shelton's back. His beige sweater, which had been gentle in my eyes just now, was frighteningly fair now.

"What did his words just now mean?"

"Could it be that everything had something to do with him?"

"Is he the one who planned the incident where Patrick's Al project laboratory caught fire?"
