Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 365 Jessica Suffered from Serious Malnutrition
After hearing Glenn's words, I was stunned for a moment. Then I smiled, stopped what I was doing, and squatted down. Hugging him in my arms, I said seriously, "Caroline is my sister, twin sister." "Really?" Blinking his big eyes, Glenn asked curiously, "Then, does she have the same face as yours, Mommy?" "Yes." I nodded. "Wow! Can I see her?" Glenn was so excited. I frowned slightly and showed a face of regret. Pinching Glenn's little face, I told him seriously, "Mommy's sister has gone somewhere pretty far away. For a long while, she won't come back." "Doesn't that mean I can't see her?" Glenn pouted his tender mouth, looking a little unhappy. As I was about to say something to make him happy, Lacy's voice came from behind, "Young Master, it's time to have some snacks. It is your favorite chocolate cake today." "I'm coming!" Within once second only, Glenn grinned at once, revealing two rows of teeth in his little mouth. He turned a

Shelton didn't take my words seriously. Standing in front of me, he said, "I'm fully devoted to your business. And I once said that it couldn't be more natural for me to do these things for you." He stood there, blocking the white light in the corridor behind him. And the look in his eyes was as gentle as before. For a moment, I mustered up the courage and asked, "Did you do anything illegal or not? I eavesdropped on Grandpa Cowell's conversation before. According to him, it is he who helped you settle what you had done before..." Hearing what I said, Shelton, who had been calm, was somewhat swayed. After a while, he said, "Let's get into the car first." On the way downstairs, I walked behind him. Looking at his tall figure, I guessed randomly as to what he was going to say later. I felt the journey seemed to be quite long. Finally, we arrived at the underground garage. We got in the car. Shelton started the car first, turned on the heating sys
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 367 Nobody Will Harm You from Now On
At that moment, without any hesitation, I went forward and hugged Jessica directly! At first, she was shocked. Struggling desperately with her hands, she grabbed me desperately and scratched my clothes and my body with her sharp fingernails wildly. I could feel that she injured the back of my neck. Even so, I had no intention of letting her go. Hugging Jessica, I whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid. We won't hurt you. And I will protect you. No one will hurt you again. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..." I kept whispering in Jessica's ear, telling her not to be afraid. After a while, she finally quieted down. Then, she reached out and hugged me. I could feel that her arms were trembling. It seemed that she had plucked up the courage to hug me. Hugging her like this, I said, "Let bygones be bygones. No one will hurt you from now on. I will protect you." At this moment, I realized that the reason why I was alive had to be that Jes
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 368 Why Are You Watching out for Me Like This?
Janice hesitated for a moment and said, "In fact, I originally thought that Mr. Shelton was with Emily on a whim. However, after recent observation, I found that the situation didn't seem to be like this." "What's that?" "Every time Mr. Shelton calls Emily Welch by her first name, he calls her in an intimate way. When you aren't around, Emily sits on Mr. Shelton's lap sometimes. And Mr. Shelton will look at her with affection in his eyes and speak to her in an affectionate tone. Sometimes, he treats her more affectionately than he does to you... " What Janice had said made me nervous all of a sudden. "Is that so?" "Could it be that Shelton does fall for Emily Welch?" But I trusted Janice and knew that she wouldn't lie to me. I lowered my eyes slightly and smiled faintly, "I am glad to hear that. In that case, I can give up my title at any time. If he indeed finds someone he likes, I will congratulate him." In fact, Emily was better than m
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 369 In Front of You, I Pretend to Be Rational and Calm
Patrick reopened the cardoor. I got in the car with him. In the whole rear side of the car, there lay a long sofa with a corner. I looked around and chose to sit at the end. Patrick sat next to me. Sitting about half a meter from me, he looked at me and said seriously, "If it is me who cheated on the maid, will you mind?" "Yes." I blurted out such an answer in my mind. The reason why I didn't oppose Shelton doing so was that I neither cared about him nor liked him. Feeling a little unhappy in my heart, I didn't feel jealous at all. "You will, right?" Patrick answered on my behalf. I looked down, hesitated for a moment, and nodded. Even so, I said to Patrick, "Because I will mind your cheating, so I think I am in the best state now." "What do you mean?" "The current me is sensible, decent, and generous. I can relate to why Shelton is doing so well. I am a perfect Mrs. Shelton." I said calmly. Patrick seemed to
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 370 Emily Got Pregnant
Lacy and Janice had talked so loudly just now. Knowing that I was back, Emily wasn't moved in the slightest at all. Lying there, she didn't have t any intention to get up. From my perspective, I could only see that she was on her side without seeing her expression. However, I could feel that something was wrong. I helped Glenn take off his clothes and said to him, "Go upstairs to have fun first." "Oh." Glenn got my point. After he put on his shoes and walked upstairs, he stared at Emily with pouted lips, looking unhappy. Emily turned a blind eye to him. After confirming that Glenn was upstairs, I changed my shoes slowly and walked over to the side of the couch, seeing Emily's expression clearly. She looked to have been intoxicated by her success. What was going on? On the other side, seeing that I came home, Lacy seemed to be confident, walked over, and scolded loudly, "Emily Welch, stop it before you go too far. Madam is back
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 371 A Prelude to the Danger
Hearing my words, Glenn shook his head and said, "Uncle Shelton got another woman pregnant, which means that he is a bad guy. Mom, don't be with him anymore." Hearing Glenn's words, I was stunned. But I said quickly, "It is a matter between us adults. Only we can solve it between ourselves. You are a child. So you should grow up peacefully and happily, okay?" The affairs between us were too complicated. As for whether Shelton had injected something into Glenn's body or not, its answer was unknown. I assumed that the answer probably was a negative one. But I dared not to bear the slightest possibility. After all, from my point of view, Shelton was somewhat vicious. Glenn pouted his lips as if he were thinking about something. After a while, he said seriously, "Mom, without Dad, I will protect you." "Okay!" I hugged Glenn in my arms and went downstairs. Nancy arrived downstairs soon. After I helped Glenn get changed and sent him out,
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 372 Emily Had Miscarriage Because of Ferocious Beating
Janice opened the door. There was only one person standing at the door. As for this person, I had met him during the day... It was Patrick Cowell. Upon seeing Patrick, I was stunned. "Why did he come here?" "Did Shelton call him just now? It's impossible. Nor does it make sense." At this time, everyone in the room looked at the door, looking a little surprised. Only Janice looked quite calm. Before I could think of anything, Shelton spoke first, "Patrick, why are you here?" His tone was about the same as usual. Seeing that it was Patrick, Emily was startled. Soon, she looked somewhat unwilling. She looked at me with jealousy and hatred in her eyes. I thought that it should be the first time she had seen Patrick in person. In terms of the looking, Patrick was better-looking than Shelton. In addition, he was young with a fierce temperament and a strong aura. Standing at the door with a black coat, he had

Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 517 Side Story—Happy Reunion
After the wedding, our honeymoon plan was postponed because Rosalie was too young and Patrick's legs had not yet fully recovered. I had been resting at home all along. Sometimes I would talk to Nancy about my work. It was March with spring blossoms when Rosalie was 100 days old. Early in the morning, Patrick went out as usual, and I saw him off at the door. He held my face, kissed my forehead gently, and said softly, "Pack your daily necessities this morning. We'll go to our new home this afternoon." "New home? Where is it? Why didn't you mention it before?" I was stunned. I hadn't heard anything about the new home from Patrick so far. He looked mysterious and tidied up the messy hair on my face. "You will know when we arrive in the afternoon." After that, without waiting for me to ask more questions, he glanced at his watch and hurried out. "A new home?" I thought about it carefully. After getting married to Patrick, I
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 516 The End(Part Two)
Patrick and I held a wedding when Rosalie was 100 days old. Although he wanted to hold a grand banquet, I refused to do so. Mostly, I was too old to care about the formalities anymore. But I understood that it was Patrick's heart for me, and I did not refuse to hold the wedding. We just needed to call some good friends and have a Simple banquet. Patrick couldn't convince me, so he naturally agreed. In the blink of an eye, it was the wedding day. Shirley sent me the wedding dress. Because it was a mini wedding, only seven or eight tables were available. Most of the guests came from my studio and Towering High Company. Everyone was familiar with each other. In order to solve the marriage problem of the older single women in my studio, Nancy and I also made a special effort on the seating row. We specifically put single men and women of marriageable age at one table, expecting them to develop their relationship. Early
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 515 The End(Part One)
Listening to Shirley's words, I truly felt lucky for Shelton. Fortunately, he returned. Fortunately, he returned to Shirley's side. Back to the person who loved him. Michael Blake was hired as defense counsel in Shelton's case. I went to find Patrick and asked him about the case. He told me Shelton had locked Emily up for a while, but he soon let her go. But after that, Emily asked Shelton for money. Shelton gave her some. After Emily spent all the money, she was desperate and went to the police. She wanted to use this method to force Shelton to give her money. When I heard Patrick's words, I thought that Emily was too naïve. If this were true, then someone might help her. But it was she who exposed the video in the first place, and everyone knew that. She had made the choice. Now everything she said just made it worse. Emily had no money, so she could only find the assigned lawyer to file the lawsuit. In the first
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 514 Suspicion of False Imprisonment
She looked terrible, even her makeup was crying off. Only one night had passed, but she seemed to have aged a few years. She looked at us and asked, "How is father doing?" "The operation was successful." Patrick answered, but his expression looked bad. Dulcie heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Good." Then she turned around and was about to leave. Patrick said, "Aunt Dulcie, you don't have to blame yourself. It's just that Roger used you." "I blame myself for being stupid." Dulcie stood there, with her back to us and her head lowered. "I know it quite well in my heart. How could such a handsome, good and young man like him fall in love with me? But I still hold a trace of luck in my heart, thinking about what if it's true?" She didn't go on but left with her head down. I was a little worried. "Will your aunt be fine?" "Don't worry. She is a strong woman." After Patrick said that, he patted me on the shoulder. "You should go to
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 513 Doctors Are Healers With Benevolent Hearts
Patrick's words were like a sharp sword that pierced into Roger's heart. Roger stood there. Although he looked calm, he lost all his momentum. At this moment, the ambulance arrived. Although Dulcie was angry and hard to accept it, she could tell what was more important. She opened the door and let the doctor in. The doctor examined Ned first, and then quickly carried him into the ambulance. Because of the small space in the ambulance, only two people were allowed to accompany Ned. Sheridan and Melissa got in. Once they left, it was just me, Patrick, Dulcie, and Roger left in the room. "I'll ask the driver to drive the car over." Patrick took out his phone and called the driver. Then I supported him to go out. Dulcie and Roger stood there without saying a word. Patrick did not talk to them either. He went out with me and got in the car. We decided to order the servants to take care of Glenn first. We cal
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 512 Dulcie, Could It Be That You Think I Sincerely Love You?
Hearing his words, Sheridan looked gloomy on the side. Patrick held me in his arms, "You seem to care about the affairs of the Cowell Family so much. Each time we have some disputes, you will help us enthusiastically. Now you are making a move on my aunt, aren't you?" "No." After finishing his words, Roger imitated Patrick and held Dulcie in his arms, saying, "Dulcie and I love each other sincerely." ...... I looked gloomy. It wasn't that I didn't believe in December Romance. However, the age gap between them was so large. As Patrick's aunt, Dulcie was quite good-looking. It was just that she, who was old, had encountered too many unpleasant things in the past few years, making her meaner and harsher. As for Roger by her side... From all aspects, every woman lusted for him. He, who wasn't poor, surely could get whatever woman he wanted with ease. Indeed, in every way, there was no way that he would take a fancy to Dulcie. No w
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 511 Dulcie Arrived with a Kept Man
"All right." I nodded. I would marry Patrick soon. Because of the things taking place in the past, the Cowell Family didn't have a good impression of me. If I arrived there late because of getting changed this time, it wouldn't be worth it. Holding Patrick's hand, I went downstairs with him. Coming out early, we didn't see many cars on the road. When we arrived at the Cowell Family's mansion, it was exactly 6:30 p.m. By the time we went in, it had been quite lively inside the house. Sheridan, Melissa, and Ned were all surrounding Glenn. Glenn, a six-year-old child, was smart and flexible. Whatever others asked him, he would respond like an adult. Upon seeing us, the three of us looked at me. Ned straightened up first and said with a smile on his face, "You're here." "Yes. Hello, Grandpa Cowell." After greeting Ned, I said to Sheridan and Melissa, "Hello, Mr. Sheridan. Hello, Mrs. Melissa." Now, the relationsh
Substitute Bride,Substitute Love Chapter 510 I Am in Pain
"I'll be gentler." Leaning and frowning, he seemed to be in great pain, "I'm in pain." ...... "I am telling you the truth..." Cupping my face with his hands, he looked as if he were waiting for me to show my mercy. Frowning, i didn't know what to do for a while. What's more, unlike Patrick's office where there was a lounge, my office was a small one with a sofa only. Moreover, the setup was later divided. It wasn't quite soundproof. Once, Nancy made a phone call to argue with a construction company in her office. I heard all that she had said clearly in my office... Thinking of this, I shook my head heavily. Seeing his distressed look, I tentatively asked, "Shall we go upstairs?" Upon finishing my words, I felt that my suggestion wasn't quite plausible. At this time, Patrick was on the verge of ejecting. His private part was bulging. On the way out, we would pass by the open office... Everyone would be watching us.

"Why did you... come here?" Standing up in a hurry, I helped Patrick into the office. While walking in, he closed the door handily. Looking up at the closed door, I knew that he should be here for what had happened just now. Even if he wouldn't take the initiative to come here, I would ask him about it. I helped Patrick seated on the sofa. Sitting up, he looked at me and said, "What do you want to know? Go ahead." Sure enough, he knew me. Sitting opposite him and looking at him, I thought for a moment before asking, "What happened? What did Kelsi do?" "Ever since she left last time, per my order, Louis had been keeping an eye on everything about her, including the ones she contacted. As expected, she dealt with the ones who smuggled guns and bribed a murderer, asking him to kill someone." Patrick didn't state who Kelsi had wanted to kill explicitly. Even so, I knew that it was me. I looked at Patrick, asking, "What did you do?
