Chapter 89
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 89<\/p>\n
\u201cGo and get your money now! There is an ATM at the door. I saw it when I came in!\u201d<\/p>\n
Frank Noyes presses one hand against my shoulder and the other, still holding the knife to my waist.<\/p>\n
I can only follow him out to the ATM.<\/p>\n
We walk out and nobody notices the different.<\/p>\n
Maybe they just feel that we walk too closely in public. But who will know, the crisis is hidden under harmonious surface?<\/p>\n
I withdraw money slowly and count time secretly.<\/p>\n
On the way, I saw a police station about one kilometer from the ATM. The police would be here by now if nothing goes wrong.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow much do you need?\u201d I turn around and ask Frank Noyes.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t waste time, withdraw as much as you have!\u201d he says impatiently.<\/p>\n
I obey his command and sigh of relief.<\/p>\n
I need his greed.<\/p>\n
I have more than seventy thousand dollars in my bank card, and the ATM can only withdraw three thousand dollars once. It would take a long time to withdraw all of them.<\/p>\n
Frank Noyes robs every time I withdraw the money and he counts it greedily.<\/p>\n
By the fifth time, I could see out of the corner of my eye that there are several policemen coming this way.<\/p>\n
Frank Noyes is still counting the money, so he doesn\u2019t notice.<\/p>\n
\u201cHere.\u201d<\/p>\n
I give the money to the policeman who come in. The police understand in an instant and tackles Frank Noyes to the ground.<\/p>\n
Frank Noyes what happened and snaps at me, \u201cJane Noyes, you called the police. I’m not going to let you go!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOfficer, this is my brother. He gives away company trade secrets, he takes drugs, and tries to hurt me with a knife. Take him away.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou say you are penniless and you drive me to death every time. But now mother is in hospital, where is the money coming from?\u201d<\/p>\n
My father stops saying, looking at me with complicate expression.<\/p>\n
I take out the money from my purse and give it to him. I tell him in a cold voice, \u201cThis is thirty thousand dollars. This is the last money I give you money. No matter what happens in the future, I will not care. Take good care of yourself and take good care of mom. As for Frank Noyes, let him learn his lesson, only by which can he grow up.\u201d<\/p>\n
My father wants to say something, but he doesn\u2019t open his mouth.<\/p>\n
I go back to the office and face another barrage of abuse.<\/p>\n
I’m in a bad mood and don\u2019t want to argue with them.<\/p>\n
Nicole Snow probably feels bored to pick on me. She goes away to focus on her own business. I have nothing to do in the afternoon. I look at the pictures on my computer and wonder how I could design something elegant and chic.<\/p>\n
These pictures were taken during my last visit to Santos. I am so lucky to have a backup in my computer. Otherwise, I lost my phone and everything would be ruined.<\/p>\n
After work, I am going to buy a new phone before go back. When I get to the door of the company, I see Frances Louis\u2019s car.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-113","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/113","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=113"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
