"But Seth... He is in great danger now!" I didn't even have time to think about how Patrick was feeling right now.
I wanted to get rid of him and go after Seth.
However, Patrick tightly hugged my waist with his wrists. The next second, I heard him say word by word, "I'm jealous."
At that moment, I was stunned.
"Mr. Cowell, what did you say?"
"I say, I'm jealous." Patrick repeated once again, "You're my wife. I can't tolerate that you pay attention to another man and treat me as a nobody when I am by your side."
If it were at other times, I might be moved and fluttered upon knowing that Patrick was jealous because of me.
But now, I simply didn't think so.
I pushed him away with all my strength, raised my head, and looked at him with an absurd expression. Then I said, "Mr. Cowell, the way you see it, why Seth's company has become like this? Is it because of his incompetence? Or is it because of his poor vision? Neither of them!"
I looked at Patrick and said word by word, "This is because your beloved woman, Caroline Archer, used Ronald Weil to frame me. After she failed, she even killed Ronald at all costs. Then she let Ronald's wife come to Glorious Seth Design to make trouble, intending to put me back to prison. Later, she failed again. However, the owner of the house where Ronald had died asked Seth for compensation!
"All of this is caused by Caroline Archer!"
I complained to Patrick.
The more I said, the angrier I became.
Before Patrick could say anything, I continued, "Go and love her. Go ahead and love the vicious Caroline Archer. Don't disgust me here anymore!"
Seeing Seth like this, I hated Patrick and Caroline so much.
I wondered why they had implicated innocent people!
I went after Seth into the hospital. But Patrick didn't catch up with me.
I went in and found the doctor. After consulting him, I learned that since Seth had been drinking a lot for a long time, he was suffering from gastric perforation.
Fortunately, he had been sent to the hospital in time and he was now undergoing an operation. Otherwise, nobody could have saved him.
When I heard this, I felt relieved. If something happened to Seth, I would not forgive myself.
I sat at the door of the operation room and waited there for a long time.
Seth finally was pushed out of the operating room and transferred to the ward. Fearing that nobody would take care of him when he woke up, I guarded him in the ward.
At 9 a.m. in the morning, Seth woke up.
It was not me but his cell phone that woke him up.
As soon as his cell phone rang, Seth woke up as if he had gone crazy. I had no choice but to hold the cell phone for him.
After he picked up the phone call, he was very excited and said, "Mr. West, you asked me to drink yesterday. I did as you said. And I am lying in the hospital now. You can't go back on your words!"
Later, I vaguely heard Mr. West say on the phone that what he had said after his drinking didn't count at all.
I felt indignant for Seth!
Seth begged him with all his might. And in the end, Mr. West hung up the phone at once.
Seeing that Seth was lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling in a daze, I tried to look energetic, went over, and pinched his face, "Don't worry. I have a solution."
"Charlotte, I don't need you to..."
"Don't be so polite to me. Just take it as an investment from me!" I smiled and said, "I don't have twenty million dollars. But I do have ten million dollars."
He looked at me and asked, "How did you get so much money? Don't force yourself. If you want to borrow money from Patrick Cowell, then forget it..."
"Of course I won't turn to him. Have you forgotten the indisputable fact that I am the Second Lady of the Archer Family? More importantly, I have a grandmother who loves me very much."
I tried my best to smile as lightly as possible.
Although Seth was reluctant to agree to my request, I said that if he moved randomly before he recovered, I would no longer bother with him.
I knew that Seth cared about me.
He agreed.
Special escorts were available in Holy Spirit Hospital. I asked a special escort to take care of Seth and left.
I couldn't go and ask Rosy for money. So my only way was to give my house as security for a loan.
