Chapter 109
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 109<\/p>\n
I look at Nora in embarrassment, not knowing what to do.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe broke the vase. How much is it?\u201d<\/p>\n
Nicole Snow asks Nora, with a look of amusement.<\/p>\n
Whitney Jordan stands there with a cool face, her calm eyes showing no emotion. In a trance I think, she and Frances Louis are very similar, no wonder they would be together.<\/p>\n
I almost forget that she has an extremely insane side.<\/p>\n
Nora looks at me sympathetically and says, \u201c1.6 million dollars. I’d better call the boss over.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then she makes a call and describes the situation here.<\/p>\n
I stand there, desperately, like a prisoner awaiting trial.<\/p>\n
After making a call, Nora gives me two napkins, saying, \u201cWipe your face, there’s a lot of blood.\u201d<\/p>\n
I take napkins dully and wipe my face. The blood stains napkins red quickly.<\/p>\n
The cut on my face looks pretty bad. However, I have no time to think about it. All I am thinking about is how I can get so much money.<\/p>\n
Whitney Jordan and Nicole Snow still stay. Apparently, they want to sit through.<\/p>\n
Soon the boss comes over, a man with a big belly. He sees the debris on the ground and asks sharply, \u201cWho broke the vase?!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt’s me.\u201d I stand up and bite my lips.<\/p>\n
\u201cMake reparation. 1.6 million dollars, one cent less and I will call the police immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n
The boss’s words, no room for negotiation, make me completely despaired.<\/p>\n
There are only 40 thousand dollars in my back car, far from enough.<\/p>\n
Whether Nicole Snow tripped me up or not, I broke the vase, and I must take the responsibility.<\/p>\n
When I see the police, I really panicked.<\/p>\n
Andrew Malan and Frank Noyes went to prison because they committed a crime, but I am not like them, I can’t go to prison. If I run into them in prison, I think they’ll probably kill me. Especially Andrew Malan, who’s abnormal and hates me to the bone.<\/p>\n
In a few words, the boss explains the situation to the police. The police come over and say to me deeply, \u201cIt is you who break the vase. Come with us.\u201d<\/p>\n
I can’t go to the police station. If I get a stain, my whole life will be ruined!<\/p>\n
Although my life looks not good now.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen the chips are down, there’s no man to lean on. Jane Noyes, those of you who try to charm a man’s heart are bound to eat your own bitter fruit.\u201d Nicole Snow’s mocking voice rings out again.<\/p>\n
Eat my own bitter fruit? How funny. If it hasn’t been for her tripped me up, nothing would happen.<\/p>\n
She looks down on me, and thinks I get my status depending on men. I can\u2019t stand her anymore.<\/p>\n
I walk up to Nicole Snow, smile and say, \u201cYou don’t think I can afford $1.6 million? You are wrong! I can afford it!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-133","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/133","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=133"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
