Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 166

At this time, I didn't have time to bother with Mabel at all.

I could feel that there were a pair of cold eyes behind me.

I stood still. And I felt chillness down my back.

Ryan didn't care about what others would think of him at all. After that, he took the shorthand notebook in front of her and went out.

As I was standing there, I heard the sounds of leather shoes rubbing against the ground behind me.

Then Patrick passed by me and walked to the front of Ryan. And he said politely, "Mr. Ryan, this competition is organized by us. We have the responsibility to send everyone back home safely. So she can't go with you."

"Why?" Ryan raised his head and looked at Patrick, "Do you mean that she won't be safe if she goes with me?"

"Yes."

Patrick wasn't evasive at all.

Ryan stood still. He looked at Patrick from

head to toe and laughed out loud, "Young man, could it be that you think that I, an old man in my fifties, will do anything to her?"

"That's not what I mean. But regarding this competition, my company..."

"Don't make any excuses with your company. When you saw me holding her in my arms yesterday, your eyes were burning with anger." Ryan interrupted Patrick's words and narrowed his eyes, "Do you think it's so hard for you to admit that you like her and that you don't want her to go with me? In front of feelings, you don't need to put on airs."

Hearing Ryan's words, I was stunned.

Patrick stared at him. After a long silence, he said, "This is a rule. She can't leave with you."

He didn't admit his feelings for me.

He probably had no feelings for me.

"Fine." Ryan nodded and said, "Since you insist that it's a rule, I won't take her away."

I probably was angry with Patrick.

I walked over to Ryan's side and said, "Mentor Ryan, I surely will contact you when I return to City Y."

"Okay."

Ryan nodded.

Patrick looked at me as if his eyes were about to be burning!

I didn't bother with him at all.

And I went back to my room on my own.

At this time, it was already past two p.m. I remembered that Ryan had said that he would leave at three p.m. To take my chance, I stood at the parking lot at the gate of the resort at exactly 3 p.m.

Sure enough, I saw Tommy and Ryan over there.

Next to them, a male waiter was helping them move their luggage.

I ran over hurriedly and said, "Mentor Ryan, thank you for your guidance yesterday."

"It's alright. I was just on the spur of the moment." Ryan looked at me and asked, "Why didn't you bring your things with you?"

"My things?"

"Your luggage! I thought you were leaving with me."

"It turns out that he is thinking so."

I said quickly, "I'll leave with my colleagues tomorrow. After all, we were here together."

"All right." He didn't force me as he just said, "I see that the boss of Towering High is not straightforward at all. As for what he is thinking about in his mind, he isn't even sure about it by himself. I'm afraid you won't be by his side for a long time. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, come to me at any time."

After he said that, Tommy, who was on the side, became interested as he said, "Ryan, you've been living a secluded life over these years. It's rare for me to see you care so much about someone."

"Hey, I'm old. And half of my body is buried in the soil. I just can't bear to see no one inherit all of my skills."

Ryan said casually.

I was a little confused by his words.

"Could it be that Ryan was intending to..."

"Could it be that he wanted to adopt me as his disciple?"

"He shouldn't have meant so..."

No matter how boldly I thought, I dared not to think so.

But what he had said just now seemed to indicate that he did have such an intention
