Chapter 93
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 93<\/p>\n
It\u2019s Noah Jefferson.<\/p>\n
He wears a hospital gown and his head is wrapped in gauze.<\/p>\n
It seems that Frances Louis has taken me to the municipal hospital so that I happen to meet Noah Jefferson.<\/p>\n
Frances Louis doesn\u2019t like him. I hope nothing bad would happen.<\/p>\n
And how do I explain Frances Louis\u2019s existence to Noah Jefferson?<\/p>\n
“I didn’t believe my mother when she said she saw you here, but it’s true! What happened? Why are you in intensive care?”<\/p>\n
Noah Jefferson\u2019s eyes are full of care.<\/p>\n
“I’m fine. Why are you here?” I smile at him lamely and glance at Frances Louis.<\/p>\n
He sits there with a poker face. I couldn’t read his mind.<\/p>\n
Perhaps it is because Frances Louis is so quiet that Noah Jefferson doesn\u2019t notice him and walks right up to me.<\/p>\n
“You didn\u2019t come to see me these days. I miss you so much.”<\/p>\n
His words catch me off guard and make me gulp nervously. My mouth couldn\u2019t help twitching.<\/p>\n
Please be mercy and stop talking.<\/p>\n
I say to Noah Jefferson with a bitter face, “You were hurt so badly, you’d better come back to your ward and have a good rest.”<\/p>\n
Noah Jefferson looks at me with delight, “Are you caring about me? You should care more of yourself, little fool.”<\/p>\n
Once again, I look at Frances Louis, I see his brows frown and a faint smile on his lips.<\/p>\n
A dagger must be hidden behind his smile.<\/p>\n
I must let Noah Jefferson get out of here, or I’m afraid I’ll be killed by Frances Louis the next second.<\/p>\n
Noah Jefferson seems to notice my vision. He turns and sees Frances Louis, who is sitting there quietly.<\/p>\n
“Who is he?”<\/p>\n
He asks doubtfully, looking from me to Frances Louis, with guarded eyes.<\/p>\n
Frances Louis doesn\u2019t answer, but looks at me as if expecting me to answer this question.<\/p>\n
But what shall I say? How to explain it tactfully without angering Frances Louis?<\/p>\n
When did I mention him? It was Frances Louis who always forced me to talk about him!<\/p>\n
I want to refute, but I dare not refute What Frances Louis says. I don’t know what he’ll do if I annoyed him.<\/p>\n
There are some things that I want to stop but I can’t. Noah Jefferson seems in a good mood and speaks with me again.<\/p>\n
“Jane, I’ve persuaded my parents. They aren\u2019t against us being together now. We can finally be together.”<\/p>\n
The air pressure in the room drops two degrees in an instant.<\/p>\n
Frances Louis’s face grows darker.<\/p>\n
If Noah Jefferson keeps talking, I doubt whether I’ll see the sun tomorrow.<\/p>\n
“I am tired. I want to sleep.”<\/p>\n
I close my eyes, hoping Noah Jefferson would get out of this mess quickly.<\/p>\n
“All right, take a good rest. I will see you later.”<\/p>\n
Hearing Noah Jefferson’s footsteps fade away, I open my eyes and feel relieved. I implore Frances Louis, “My boss, can I be discharged immediately?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-117","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/117","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=117"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
