Chapter 156
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 156<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t interfere with any of my business from now on, otherwise there will be consequences. You better have your stuff sent back.\u201d<\/p>\n
Whitney\u2019s face turns dreadfully pale after hearing Frances\u2019s cruel words.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrances, how can you do this to me? I\u2019m your wife, we\u2019re supposed to live together!\u201d Whitney is literally begging him.<\/p>\n
She loses all her arrogance and dignity when facing Frances. I know clearly, it\u2019s because she loves him. Only when you love someone so deep that you will willingly throw all your dignity away.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhitney Jordan, you know exactly why we get married. If you don\u2019t leave right now, I\u2019ll call Mr. Jordan.\u201d<\/p>\n
In the end, Whitney leaves unwillingly.<\/p>\n
I stand where I am, witnessing everything.<\/p>\n
Today I finally get an idea how detached he is.<\/p>\n
He treats his own wife like this, if one day we break up, he\u2019s gonna treat me worse.<\/p>\n
Their relationship confuses me, because I just heard that they had already separated for two years. Couples automatically divorce after they have lived apart for two years. I know because I divorced Andrew.<\/p>\n
But when I look at Frances and Whitney, I don\u2019t see any incompatibility.<\/p>\n
Confused as I am, I won\u2019t try to find answers.<\/p>\n
Steven doesn\u2019t let go of my shoulder until Whitney leaves. He says to me, \u201cCan you be more careful, I don\u2019t wanna be the one who always clean up the mess for you. One second later, things will turn ugly.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy are you here?\u201d I ask him.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, Whitney texted me early, telling me she was coming for Frances. I called both of you, but no one answered. So, here I am.\u201d<\/p>\n
I check my phone and the missed call shows up on the screen.<\/p>\n
None of us took the phone to the restaurant, that was how the drama started.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you want from her?\u201d I ask casually.<\/p>\n
It doesn\u2019t seem to bother Steven for he curls his lips and leaves.<\/p>\n
Frances takes me home, then he gives a call to have all the stuff moved out.<\/p>\n
One day later, we move into a new place.<\/p>\n
I have to say I like the new place a lot.<\/p>\n
A villa by the sea. I can have the sea breeze on me and listen to the sound of the waves when I have nothing to do. That will be nice.<\/p>\n
As long as there is no Tsunami.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m quite satisfied with the decorations in the house. It doesn\u2019t look like a place that Frances finds in a hurry, I assume he has bought this place long ago because of all the delicate design.<\/p>\n
When I walk into the bathroom, I find two doors.<\/p>\n
However, I\u2019m shocked the moment I push open the other door.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-180","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/180","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=180"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
