How long will it take to go through all of them?<\/p>\n<p>In this moment, my phone starts to ring, which scares me a lot.<\/p>\n<p>I guess that it must be Frances, but then I see that it is Noah.<\/p>\n<p>Since that day when he left France, we haven\u2019t had any contact.<\/p>\n<p>Now he suddenly calls me, is there something wrong?<\/p>\n<p>I am very confused and pick his call, but when the line connects, there is a women on the other side starting to curse me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou little bitch, I told you to leave my son, but you are still wrapping yourself around him, do you really want something to happen before you are happy enough? I wish I could kill you right now!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s Noah\u2019s mother.<\/p>\n<p>But I don\u2019t understand, why is she taking Noah\u2019s phone to call me and curse me like that?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMissus, what have I done?\u201d I ask.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou dare to ask me? Our Noah has lost his job, what do you think we should do? If it wasn\u2019t for you, how could he ever lose his job, I am telling you, as long as I am alive, you are never going to set foot in our house. If Noah insists on being with you, then I will pretend like I don\u2019t have this son!\u201d The anger on the other side of the telephone was so real that I can almost touch it.<\/p>\n<p>Frances smirks, it barely looks like a smile, he doesn\u2019t seem to believe me.<\/p>\n<p>But this is not important right now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy did you do that? You said you wouldn\u2019t touch him for now. Why would you make him lose his job?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Frances\u2019 eyes darken, his expression seems complicated.<\/p>\n<p>Then he laughs, sits opposite to me, \u201cDo I really need to speak with you first before I punish him?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His words make me speechless.<\/p>\n<p>True, he is Frances, he doesn\u2019t need my permission to do things. But he is going against innocent people, doesn\u2019t he feel it\u2019s going too far?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrances, you are so heartless! Don\u2019t you know that losing one\u2019s job might be nothing of a big deal to you, but to some other people it is! You only care about yourself having fun, but you never think about what others are feeling!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-232","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/232","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=232"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
