President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 217

Daisy and I froze when Sean finished.

It was obvious that he found out Daisy was lying a long time ago.

He sent a message when he went out. I didn’t care. He might have been texting Jack.

When we got there, I went to Daisy. He just said a word in front of his car.

How did he find out?

Daisy didn’t look happy but she didn’t seem to want to admit it. She put her hands around her chest and looked at Sean. “What? I was really harassed. And I called my friend instead of you. I have nothing to say.”

“That’s good.” Sean's face was light. “I rent this room for a month. You can stay here until you’re sure no one will disturb you.”

It seemed that he anticipated Daisy’s every move.

Daisy looked at me helplessly.

I probably knew her purpose. I said, “how about letting her live in our house? Every day I’m alone and bored, and you’ve been busy...”

“No way.”

I was interrupted by Sean before I finished. “She can live anywhere but our house.”

“Then let her live in my house!” Daisy said directly, “you’re not always at home. If she lives with me, I can accompany her. You can call her back when you want to see her.”

Daisy reached out and pulled me from Sean to her.

She hugged me tightly and didn’t want to let go.

“... OK.”

Sean was silent for a while and agreed.

I couldn’t believe it when he finished.

“Now that Mr. Jessop has agreed, I will take her away.” Daisy took me outside.

“Wait a minute.”

“Mr. Jessop, do you regret it?”

Daisy looked back at Sean.

I also stared at Sean. He looked cold and didn’t seem to care at all. It was like I was not his girlfriend but someone he didn’t know.

Sean looked up at me. His eyes were like the water in a thousand years old well. He said coldly, “Jack will drive you. I’ll let someone deliver her things.”

“...” I looked at Sean and was disappointed.

He looked as if he had been expecting me to leave.

Jack heard Sean and stood up quickly. “OK, OK, I’ll drive them!”

He finished and went out with his clothes. He opened the door and signaled us to leave.

I was still standing. Daisy pulled me. “What are you looking at? He expects you to leave. Don’t you see that?”

I didn’t seem to hear what she said. I just looked at Sean and said, “I’m leaving.”

“OK.”

Sean glanced at me and took his cell phone out of his pocket.

He never looked at me again.

At that moment, my heart was cold.

I was pulled away by Daisy. Jack also realized the problem in the car and said, “Miss Carter, I think your priority is to adjust your face. You can wear masks outside, but you can’t wear them at home. I think Sean didn’t want to go home because of this reason.”

“I see.”

Was it because of this? I didn’t know.

Daisy glanced at him. “Don’t speak for that scum.”

“No, I’m telling the truth.”

“Nonsense. June became like this because of the scum. He hates her now. Ha ha.”

“All men will be disgusted. Who doesn’t like beautiful women?”

“Birds of a feather flock together.”

Daisy and Jack were quarreling.

I sat and listened and thought they were a good match.

The car finally arrived at Daisy’s door.

Jack sent us downstairs and said cheekily, “I drove you downstairs. Don’t you invite me upstairs for a coffee?”

“Drinking coffee in the middle of the night will cause you to fall asleep and die suddenly.”

Daisy glanced at him and didn’t want to invite him upstairs.

But Jack was not angry. “Do you care about me?”

“What? Ha ha, I just don’t want you to go upstairs.”

Daisy said directly.

Jack said reluctantly, “you said the man was in the corridor. What if he’s still in the corridor? I’ll accompany you upstairs.”

Actually Jack just wanted to know where Daisy lived.

“Ha ha, I think you are going to be the next pursuer.”

“How could it be! I’ve been harassed by others!”

“They like your money. You have no personality but money.”

They had been arguing.

I eased the atmosphere. “Daisy doesn’t want you upstairs because her house is a mess. I’ll clean up the house for her and invite you.”

“Ah!” Jack suddenly realized, “June, you are so nice! No problem! Call me next time!”

“OK.”

I replied earnestly.

After Jack left, Daisy took me and said, “why did you help him?”

“I didn’t. I think he’s cute.”

“You may have poor eyesight.”

Daisy blamed me.

We went upstairs and Daisy found a new set of toiletries. As she opened the toothbrush for me, she asked, “what do you think of it? Sean didn’t hesitate to let you go. He may have planned that for a long time.”

“It may be so.” I gave a wry smile, “but if I face my face every day, I may have no appetite.”

I took the toiletries into the bathroom.

I stood in front of the mirror and took off my mask and looked at my left face.

My muscles were atrophied and ugly.

It was not easy for Sean to hold on so long.

“Don’t look at it. It’s not good now. After your skin recovers, you can have a facelift and become beautiful. Sean will regret it!”

Daisy leaned against the bathroom door and looked at me with regret.

Would he regret it?

Sean was excellent and had a forest. How could he regret for a tree?

I didn’t want Daisy to worry. I looked at her and smiled, “OK. I’ll make him regret it.”

The next day, Sean brought everything I had.

Four servants helped me carry things. In addition to the clothes, shoes and bags he bought for me, there were also my paintings.

I found the necklace he gave me in a pile of things.

Seeing the shape like a smiling face, I felt extremely ironic.
