Substitute Her to Love You novel Chapter 358

For what would surely happen in the end, I couldn't avoid it.

I closed the door, tidied up my clothes, and went to the study.

Upon entering the study, I saw that Patrick had been sitting there. He no longer wore an overcoat. And for some reason, he wore a pure white sweater inside instead.

Rarely had I seen Patrick wearing something pure-white.

In this way, he was less aggressive, looking gentle.

Seeing me go in, Ned pointed to an empty sofa and said, "Sit down."

I sat on the sofa without saying a word.

Ned took a sip of tea and sighed, "Alas, fate makes fools of us."

I looked up at him. And neither Patrick nor I spoke.

Ned looked at me and then at Patrick, saying, "What do you plan to do next?"

I was confused about what Ned meant by this.

Therefore, I didn't speak.

Patrick, however, opened his mouth first, "For something belonging to me, I will naturally take it back."

I looked at him with a complex feeling in my heart.

Ned looked at me and asked, "What about you? What are you going to do? Do you want to spend the rest of your life with Shelton? Or what?"

"I..." Ned's question failed me.

If I had a choice, I surely would choose Patrick.

But now, based on the current situation, I wasn't even given any choice.

"I want you and Shelton to spend the rest of your life together." Ned spoke first, "Although Shelton has many bad habits, I can sense that he truly loves you and that he wants to spend the rest of his life with you."

"Does Shelton truly love me? Does he want to spend the rest of his life with me?"

Hearing this, in fact, I found it ridiculous in my heart. If Shelton truly loved me, he wouldn't have done such a thing with Emily.

However, I wouldn't tell Ned about this. Nor would I tell Patrick either.

I kept my eyes down without saying anything.

"Grandpa, you know quite well as for what kind of person Uncle Shelton is. With what you said just now, aren't you pushing her into the fire pit?" Patrick interrupted him directly, "He will be imprisoned sooner or later."

"Nonsense!" Ned glared at him, "Do your job well. Stop bothering with what he does. It is you who chose Kelsi by yourself back then. And no one forced you. So now the situation has come to this point, you can't blame anyone else for it! It's all your choice!"

"Wasn't I coerced back then? Yes, no one forced me. Even so, I was forced to make a choice between marrying Kelsi and her safety. Didn't you know what I would choose early?"

Patrick crossed his legs.

He put one hand on Ned's desk and clenched it into a fist.

He seemed to be holding back something.

"It's all in the past." Ned leaned back, "Now that it's decided, you should look ahead. It is not like she is the only woman in the world..."

"But she's the only one I want."

Patrick directly interrupted Ned's words.

Ned looked at him and pounced on the table, "You are going to piss me off, aren't you?"

"No. I surely will find evidence and send him to jail!" Sitting there, Patrick withdrew his hand, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and looked at Ned.

There was an incomparably firm look in his eyes.

Ned looked at him, feeling so angry, "Are you going to rebel me?"

"No. Originally, I wasn't in the mood to meddle in his affairs. However, he took my woman away. In that case, I'm going to intervene," Patrick continued.
