I really find that extremely amusing!<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t think of any other reason except for him to toy with me!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStop fooling around, Mr. Louis. You love Whitney so much and will never divorce her. Furthermore, even if you really divorce her, you will not want to marry me. At least I know what my limitations are and I am realistic about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I smile brilliantly at Frances and only I am aware of how bitter I feel inside. I love him more than myself like a moth flying to the fire. But I never dare to think about the possibility of being married to him.<\/p>\n<p>I can only think of one possibility of Frances saying this. Which is he is testing me. He is testing me to see if I am considering this possibility that I shouldn\u2019t have. I deeply understand that Frances is a poison that I cannot touch. So even if the love has taken hold deeply, I can only let the love rot in my heart.<\/p>\n<p>If I am not even clear about this, then I believe that my end is near.<\/p>\n<p>Frances smiles at me but I cannot comprehend his expression and becomes strangely flustered. He gently feels my hair and I feel my scalp numbing up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJane, what if I were to say that it\u2019s for real? If one day I\u2019m divorced with Whitney?\u201d He gently plays with my hair and says profoundly.<\/p>\n<p>I smile at him and softly say, \u201cThat person will not be me. Frances, we have no future together. Actually, you know better than me, don\u2019t you? If I really start to have any expectations of you, I\u2019m afraid that I don\u2019t even know how I ended up dead. That\u2019s why I don\u2019t think that you are speaking from your heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I know that the after-effects of that incident have not passed.<\/p>\n<p>I also want to know the extent of how this incident develops. When I take out my phone to browse, I realize how much I am detached from the world when I turned off my phone these few days.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of news concerning me has been dredged up. Additionally, Whitney went for a psychiatric assessment which concluded that she has a mental illness which was caused by me.<\/p>\n<p>I am at a loss for words. Frances once told me that Whitey\u2019s sickness was caused by him. How can I be blamed for this now? The public opinion is now favoring Whitney and now I am the villain.<\/p>\n<p>I am thinking that this must be the objective of Whitney which is to drown me in the despise of the social media.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-246","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/246","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=246"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
