President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 225

I quickly turned around and saw Sean standing behind me.

As soon as I saw him, I panicked. I was afraid of what he said, and hurriedly said to Cindy, “Then I’ll go first.”

After I said it, I left quickly.

Before I went far, I heard Sean ask Cindy, “What are you talking about?”

“Miss Carter said she was leaving York in a while.”

Cindy answered.

What would Sean think when he knew I was leaving?

I didn’t know.

But it does not matter.

It was important that I didn’t bother them anymore.

I walked home alone. As soon as I entered the house, Daisy was eating noodles again.

She saw me and sniffed. “Where have you been? Why does it smell so bad?”

“Huh?” I sniffed at my clothes.

Just a little bit.

“Yes, as a flight attendant, I am most sensitive to the smell of cigarettes.” Daisy stood up, walked to me, and sniffed carefully. “These are still expensive cigarettes. Did you go to see Sean?”

“No.”

“You are a liar!” Daisy asked, “Do not lie to me. You must have gone to see him. What did you do with him?”

“I...” I looked at Daisy and said, “Sean is getting married to Cindy on Sean’s 30th birthday.”

“What?” Daisy froze, too. “Fuck! So soon?”

“Yes.” I laughed at myself, “I think it’s too fast. But I asked, they have been engaged for more than half a year ...”

“Then he’s still harassing you?”

“He said he was addicted to sleep with me.”

My words ignited Daisy’s anger and she reached for her coat. “Is that what he said? Damn, I will kill him!”

“Do not!” I pulled Daisy. “Forget it. It’s all a thing of the past, and I also need a new beginning, and if I get tangled with him, then I can’t start my new life again.”

I needed a new life.

I needed to start a life without Sean.

“Oh, yes, you must live well! Make him regret it!”

Besides that, Daisy probably didn’t know how to comfort me.

I went back to the room and looked at the watercolor paper in the corner. I took out a piece of watercolor paper and stuck it on the drawing board. I took out the solid watercolor and started to draw.

I found out that when Sean was standing in front of the window and smoking, it was deeply imprinted in my mind.

I remembered every light and color at that moment.

I remembered everything clearly.

As long as I picked up the pen, I can draw without hesitation.

When I finished my painting.

I looked at the picture and my tears fell again.

Sean, we were really done.

Please do not bother me again.

I put the drawing board in the room, took out my phone, and put the man’s number on the blacklist.

It was over.

It was over.

The next day, Cindy contacted me for the transfer of the house, and I transferred the money to her at the bank.

After this day of contact, I felt more and more that Cindy was really the right person for Sean.

She spoke softly, tactfully, and thoughtfully.

Such a woman stays beside Sean and I have nothing to be reconciled to.

Another day when Cindy’s friends moved.

He told me to get the key.

This was the first time I have seen this man living in this house.

He didn’t seem to be my age, and wore long-sleeved T-shirts, casual pants, and sneakers.

When he saw me, he ran over and said, “Cindy told me to look for the woman in the mask, so I recognized you at once.”

As he said, he handed me a small bag in his hand.

I took a look. It was a key, a power card or something.

I whispered, “Thank you.”

“You are welcome.” The man smiled, “I heard about you, so I quickly made room for you. I have not lived for a few days, and yesterday I went to the housekeeping and cleaned it up, so don’t worry.”

“Thank you.”

“You don’t have to say thank you all the time.” The man held out his hand. “My name is Edward. I am a chatterbox, haha.”

Edward said as he laughed.

I looked at him and smiled. “Nice to meet you, Edward. My name is June Carter.”

“Miss Carter, I will go first. You can go back to the house and check if there are any problems. Edward said, taking a book out of his pocket and writing a phone number on it.

He tore that sheet of paper to me.

In fact, I found that it was really a group of people.

Cindy was so nice, and so were the people she knew.

I was going upstairs with something.

As soon as the key was inserted into the keyhole, the door of Ming’s house opened.

He stood at the door and said with a smile, “Did you get the house back? Congratulations!”

“Yes.” When I saw Ming, I felt like I had not seen him for a long time.

But now I see him, I still feel that he is very kind.

“I saw the young man who lived in the house that day and told him about you. He was a reasonable man.” Ming looked at me and said, “If you need to move, you can call me anytime. I can help you.”

“No, I will can do it myself.”

I subconsciously refused.

The expression on Ming’s face did not change and he just smiled faintly. “Well, if you need anything from me, just let me know.”

I nodded and turned the key to go into the house. Then I suddenly thought of my face and turned to call Ming, “Ming, I really want to ask you for help.”

I told Ming I wanted to fix my facial skin.

When the man listened, he always smiled.

After listening, he nodded confidently, “No problem, you will find the right person for this matter. I will help you to contact the doctor and then contact you.”

“Thank you.”

“You are welcome. I will get in touch with you right now.”

After Ming finished, he didn't close the door and entered the room.

I did not think about it, and I went into my own house, and I went around.

The house was clean and was almost the same as when I moved out.

Like a whole new house.

I felt grateful.

“June.” I walked around the house, and when I came out, I saw Ming standing at the porch with his cell phone in his hand, and said, “I’ve contacted a doctor for you. This expert happens to be in York. I've already made an appointment for you. It can be any time in the last three days, and you can go now.”

“Then right now.”

After all kinds of setbacks, I just wanted to heal my face quickly and started a new life.

Ming didn’t seem surprised at my choice, and he nodded, “OK, I will get my coat, and then I will start the car waiting for you in the underground garage.”

I was wearing a coat, locked the door directly, and got off the elevator with Ming.

On the way to see that expert, Ming said, “Sean’s getting married, you know?”
