Caroline quickly caught up with me, grabbed my wrist, and said with a grim smile, "Charlotte Archer, you assume that you can be Mrs. Cowell with ease?"
I turned to look at her, "Hmm?"
I had seen all kinds of evil persons in prison. And I just found her ridiculous while seeing her like this.
"Don't assume that Patrick likes you and intends to be with you in the future since he respects you. Let me tell you, you should stop daydreaming about it!"
Caroline deliberately lowered her voice.
I looked at her and blinked as I said, "Caroline Archer, I hope you can understand that it's not me who wants to be Mrs. Cowell now. It's Patrick who insists that I should be his wife. If you can let him divorce me, I will be grateful to you."
"Stop pretending! I'll get you to lose the title of Mrs. Cowell soon!"
My indifferent attitude provoked Caroline instead!
That night, after the dinner was over, Patrick
asked a driver over because everyone had been drunk to a different degree.
Angie seemed to have been overwhelmingly drunk. Although Seth was trying hard to keep a distance from her, she insisted on leaning on Seth.
To avoid causing trouble to Seth, I asked him to send Angie back, saying that I could take a taxi home by myself.
When I stood at the entrance of the restaurant and was ready to get on a taxi, I heard Patrick behind me saying, "Charlotte Archer, I'm here. How dare you take another man's car?"
I lowered my head, looked at the taxi driver, and said, "Mr. Cowell, this is a female driver."
"Even so, you can't get in either!"
As Patrick spoke, he came over and pulled me into his arms!
I gave Caroline a sidelong glance and found that her face looked gloomy. It seemed that she was eager to strangle me to death.
But that night, I still got into Patrick's car. And so did Caroline.
After Patrick sent me home and wanted to get off the car, he was stopped by Caroline.
