I open the fridge and find there is nearly nothing left. At first I want to eat hot and sour noodles (a kind of spicy and sour Chinese food), but considering I\u2019m having a baby now, so I make myself a bowl of noodles with tomato and egg.<\/p>\n<p>I realize that I actually care this child a lot in my heart, but I even can\u2019t guarantee my own safety, how can I keep and protect my child?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s torturous for me to live every day with the fear that I would lose my baby at any moment.<\/p>\n<p>With a deep sigh, I touch my belly and have some noodles in a sad mood.<\/p>\n<p>Just as I swallow a few bites, there is a phone call from Whitney.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJane, as I talked to my mom just now, she mentioned that she gave you five million yuan before to let you leave Frances. Why don\u2019t you keep your words? How dare you make up such a lie to deceive me? Do you think I will fall into your trap?!\u201d she barks questions at me.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201cmom\u201d in her mouth is Frances\u2019s mother.<\/p>\n<p>I thought they had a bad relationship, and now it seems that I\u2019m wrong.<\/p>\n<p>But leaving Frances is not as simple and easy as they think.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI gave Frances the check, but he didn\u2019t receive it.\u201d I explain.<\/p>\n<p>She snorts coldly and sneers, \u201cDo you think I will believe you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBelieve it or not.\u201d I say quietly.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve done all I can do, but Frances doesn\u2019t let me go. What else can I do? Whitney is a suspicious person, so she won\u2019t just stop here.<\/p>\n<p>As expected, on the other side of the phone, she snarls savagely, \u201cListen, Jane. I don\u2019t care what you would do, but you must leave Frances within three days. Otherwise, don\u2019t blame me for being cruel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, there is one way. Find a sugar daddy, such as me.\u201d on the other side of the phone, Steven says in a joking tone.<\/p>\n<p>The corner of my mouth twitches and I say helplessly, \u201cI\u2019m serious. Stop kidding.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m really not in the mood for joking now. Though Whitney is such a scary woman that I can\u2019t afford to offend her, I have to try everything to stay away from her.<\/p>\n<p>Besides, leaving Frances is also my wish.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry, Jane. I can\u2019t help you. My mom was pissed off when she knew that I helped you get access to DS Company last time. Now she comes back to the company, so I\u2019m not in power of company affairs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Steven\u2019s words make me feel sorry for him. I didn\u2019t expect he would be dragged off the position of CEO because of me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m really sorry, Steven.\u201d I apologize to him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-239","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/239","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=239"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
