Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 198

The way how the little boy addressed me was stabbing deeply into my heart like a sharp blade!

Although I didn't mind my appearance before, no one has ever said that to me!

In fact, I wore a mask. But there were still some scars on my nose!

As soon as the kid shouted, other kids who were playing with him came over and pointed at me. They laughed loudly and shouted, "Ugly woman! Ugly woman!"

It was unknown where the parents of these children were!

When some adults around us saw this situation, they all gathered around to join in the fun. Some people pointed at me and judged me.

"No, no, it's not like that!" For a moment, I fell into a great sense of inferiority!

Finally, these children's parents came over and pulled them away. But none of them apologized to me!

I was instantly furious at that time. I rushed to the front of the children's parents and

looked at them, "Apologize! Your children have done something wrong. Please apologize to me!"

"Wow! The ugly aunt is coming!"

One of the little boys was screaming!

The child's mother didn't scold him. Instead, she looked at me and sneered, "You went out like this. I didn't blame you for scaring my child! How come you asked me to apologize to you?"

"I agree!"

Another child's mother next to her echoed.

The children also said, "Ugly woman! Ugly woman!"

The way how they addressed me made me so sad. As I stood there, my palms were sweating. I was just one step away from running away in fright! Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

"See? Children never lie. It's not your fault to be ugly. It's your fault to come out like this and scare others." The child's mother didn't think that her child had done anything wrong.

I said angrily, "Someone like you doesn't deserve to be a mother at all!"

If the boy were my child, I wouldn't have educated him into someone like this!

The woman shouted, "Could it be that you deserve to be a mother? You are so ugly. Does any man want you? You can't have a baby even if you want to!"

Finally, someone around us couldn't bear to see it, saying, "How can you talk like this? You don't educate your child well. How come you judged her like this?"

"That's right. Just now, you kid ran around. But you didn't restrain him. He fell in front of the little girl. She helped him up kindly. But your child called her ugly woman!"

"Like mother, like son."

In the face of the accusation of the ones around, those children's parents finally felt embarrassed and became angry from embarrassment, "What's wrong with you? Can't she, who is ugly, bear to hear others' judgement? Don't be ugly if she is capable!"

"That's right!"

The children's parents didn' regret their actions at all.

However, at this time, I lowered my head so low, intending to run away.

"She's ugly. But she's beautiful. Unlike you, although you look decent, you don't act decently and speak properly."

A man's voice rang in my ears.

I looked up and found that it was Michael who spoke up for me!

He was dressed in a set of sportswear with a shopping cart in his hands in which there were a few bags of vegetables.

Although Michael was old, he had a good temperament. And the children's mothers were not young anymore. When they saw Michael, they couldn't move their eyes away from him for a while.

However, at the thought that he was scolding them, they, who felt too embarrassed to retort, pulled their children's hands and said, "Forget it."

As they were about to leave, Michael quickly walked over, put his shopping cart in front of the women, and said, "Apologize to her."

As he spoke, he took out his business card and said, "I am this young lady's personal lawyer. Just now, your personal attack on her has formed a slander..."

"What, what kind of nonsenses are you talking about? We didn't do anything. Don't talk nonsense!"

The two children's parents were frightened when they heard this.

Michael calmly pointed to the surveillance camera not far away, saying, "Cameras are everywhere in the store. With these witnesses, no way that you can deny it!"

At this time, someone around us immediately said, "Do you want to call the police? We will be your witnesses!"

The children's parents realized that the situation wasn't right. But their naughty children didn't.

A boy straightened his neck and looked at Michael, "That aunt is ugly! She is so ugly! She scared me to death!"

Michael said lightly, "Oh, go ahead. In that case, your mother will have to compensate more money."

Hearing Michael's words, the boy's mother finally realized that something was wrong and slapped the boy in the face, "What are you talking about?"

"Wow! She is ugly! Ugly woman!"

As soon as the naughty boy saw his mother beat him, he lay directly on the ground and began to shout.

His mother had a complex look on her face. And she dared not to offend Michael. So she apologized quickly, "I'm sorry. It's all because I didn't teach my kid well."

Another boy's mother added, "You who are grand are open-minded and generous. Don't bother with narrow-minded citizens like us.

We surely will educate our children properly after we go back."

After that, the two of them pulled their children and left.

After everyone left, I walked to Michael and said gratefully, "Thank you, Lawyer Michael."

"It's okay." Michael looked at my face and frowned slightly, "What's wrong with your face? It's just that we haven't seen each other for a while. Why is your face so badly injured..."

"Oh, I am just voicing my concern for you. If you don't want to say it, you can keep it." Michael smiled.

I nodded and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome. Shelton is back today. And he'll treat me to dinner at night. I'll have him order some more good dishes, assuming that he thank me on your behalf." After Michael finished his words, he waved his hands and left.

"Has Shelton returned to City Y?"

I stood there, thinking of Patrick's words unexpectedly.

Shelton helped me many times. Although it seemed to be a coincidence every time, it turned out that he did help me.

Then why did he help me?

Was there indeed interest in it?

The next day, I wrote a note at home, intending to stick it to the door of my former house. But after I finished washing up and planned to go out, I hesitated.

What had happened in the supermarket yesterday was still vivid in my mind. I even dared not to go out, fearing that an incident like that yesterday would happen again.

But now I dared not to spend money on plastic surgery. After all, I was going to buy a house...

After hesitating for a while, I decided to go out in the end.

This time, it went on smoothly. No one noticed my face. Or they probably noticed it without saying anything.

When I arrived at Unit No. 1, City Y, I remembered that I had given the entrance card to Kelsi before. And I couldn't get in without it.

With an attitude of having a try, I told the security guard that I had forgotten to bring the card with me.

Fortunately, the security guard remembered me and swiped the public card for me.

I went upstairs and stood at the door of the house that used to belong to me. Then I knocked on the door.

No one opened the door.

It made sense. According to Kelsi's words previously, I surely couldn't happen to meet the one living here at home.

I looked around and curled the note into a ball. Then I wrapped it carefully on the doorknob and stuck it on the doorknob properly.

Only then did I leave with peace of mind.

I went to the gate of the residential quarter, intending to take a taxi. Seeing that a taxi came over and parked at the gate of the residential quarter and that the passenger inside seemed to be ready to get off, I rushed over.

As I was about to get in the car, I found that the one sitting inside was Shelton.
