Chapter 82
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 82<\/p>\n
It is only at the door that I finally realize what has just happened.<\/p>\n
Did Frances Louis avenge for me?<\/p>\n
We get into the car. I still feel impossible for what happened.<\/p>\n
Why Frances Louis speaks up for me? He was mad at me before.<\/p>\n
My parents rush out and apologize to Frances Louis, \u201cWe\u2019re sorry, Mr. Louis. We didn’t mean that. Please forgive Frank. Now Jane Noyes is yours, we’re family…\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cJane Noyes is not a commodity, and you and I are not a family. You will pay for bullying my woman.\u201d<\/p>\n
Frances Louis gives them no opportunity to speak and drives off.<\/p>\n
Does this mean that I can finally get away from that family?<\/p>\n
But why am I not happy at all?<\/p>\n
At least, I thank Frances Louis truly in my heart.<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you, Frances Louis.\u201d<\/p>\n
I look over at him and thank him sincerely.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are my woman. Nobody can bully you except me.\u201d<\/p>\n
His words make my heart warm.<\/p>\n
I even think in my mind: If I am really his woman, his only woman, that\u2019s not a bad thing.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrances Louis, I have a question. There are so many women around you, why do you choose me? I’m not pretty nor special.\u201d<\/p>\n
If there must be something special of me, that would be I divorced as a virgin.<\/p>\n
But it\u2019s easy for Frances Louis to find a virgin. Why does he choose me, a divorced woman?<\/p>\n
The car slows down. He turns and looks at me with smiling eyes.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe beautiful skins are all the same in this world, but the interesting souls are one in a million. Jane Noyes, you’re funny.\u201d<\/p>\n
Funny?<\/p>\n
Well, I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n
What is Frances Louis’s definition of funny?<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you kidding me? I don’t think I’m funny. If you like something funny, go and find a comedian, that will make you laugh every day.\u201d<\/p>\n
Frances Louis gives me a cold look and says nothing.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t dare to talk. I sit on my seat obediently.<\/p>\n
But I never care what other people think. I’m an honest and upright person. I don’t care what other people think of me.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow are you? Can\u2019t get off bed because Frances Louis treated you so rudely?\u201d<\/p>\n
Steven Song looks at me with a smirk, as playful as he used to be.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou think too much.\u201d I roll my eyes to him and say angrily, \u201cFrances Louis and I quarreled, then my brother disappeared. I thought It was Frances Louis who took him away, so I waited at his door all night, and then I had a fever. It’s nearly 40\u2103, which almost burned me to death.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat a pity! I thought there was a good scene between you two.\u201d<\/p>\n
The look of disappointment on Steven Song’s face makes me want to punch him.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou want me to come up, not just for asking about me and Frances Louis, right?\u201d I ask.<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course not.\u201d He shakes his head and says to me, \u201cI’ve called you here because I need your help.\u201d<\/p>\n
He suddenly becomes mysterious. Not only he closes the door, but also draws the curtains.<\/p>\n
He arouses my curiosity.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is a corporate spy in our company. Keep an eye on who it is.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-106","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/106","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=106"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
