Chapter 245
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 245<\/p>\n
\u201cI won\u2019t come back. I\u2019ve made up my mind. As for the money for the house and other stuff, I\u2019ll transfer it to you when I finish calculating the sum.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCome on. You are my friend. I just want to help you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Steven shakes his head and smiles at me.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are friends, but I don\u2019t want to owe you too much. You\u2019ve helped me a lot. I know that you are not short of money, but…\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cJane, you don\u2019t owe me anything. It\u2019ll kill me if I don\u2019t do something. So just take it, please.\u201d<\/p>\n
Steven\u2019s tone softens, and he looks at me with a pleading gaze.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t know how to refuse him, so I nod.<\/p>\n
After bidding farewell to Steven, I go home.<\/p>\n
Whitney is in a good mood. She is sitting on the sofa, holding her phone with a smile. I don\u2019t know who she is talking to.<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you leaving tomorrow morning?\u201d Seeing me come back, she stops me and asks again.<\/p>\n
\u201cExactly.\u201d I roll my eyes and show her the ticket.<\/p>\n
Anyway, even if she knows where I am going, she won\u2019t tell Frances.<\/p>\n
Moreover, I am going to transfer there. Steven has prepared a helicopter to take me to my destination. I don\u2019t need to worry about my whereabouts being leaked.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs long as you are still here, I can\u2019t settle down.\u201d<\/p>\n
Whitney curls her lips and gives the plane ticket back to me.<\/p>\n
I go upstairs to pack up my luggage. After confirming that nothing is left behind, I call Mindy.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s already seven o\u2019clock. The plane takes off at nine o\u2019clock. I may not catch it if I don\u2019t set off now.<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you.\u201d<\/p>\n
After saying that, I close the door and begin to change clothes and wash up.<\/p>\n
I know she is just afraid that I might change my mind. She\u2019s not being nice. But if she hasn\u2019t woken me up, I might have overslept and missed the plane.<\/p>\n
And if I miss it, I might not be able to leave.<\/p>\n
After I get things done, I hurry out and take a taxi to the airport.<\/p>\n
As soon as I enter the hall, I see Frances talking with another person. And they are walking in my direction.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m only a hundred meters away from him, and there\u2019s no place for me to hide.
