Not to mention the big event of life like marriage. Perhaps, his initial resistance to this marriage makes him ignore his feelings for Whitney.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, Whitney can be viewed as a perfect woman without any flaw except the occasions when she goes mad. And her madness is caused by her crazy love for Frances. She won\u2019t lose her temper as long as Frances is with her.<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t find the reason why Frances doesn\u2019t love her, such a good woman.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it is, you should go and talk to him about it. Telling me doesn\u2019t help.\u201d I say quietly.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t want to get involved between them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe hates me, and he won\u2019t listen to me. You can tell him that you don\u2019t love him, you hate him. So he will know that I\u2019m the one who loves him best in the world. And finally he will come back to me.\u201d she pleads with me, clutching my hands excitedly.<\/p>\n<p>My eyebrows furrow together. Her words confuse me.<\/p>\n<p>What an impressive idea! If I say to Frances that I don\u2019t love him, then he will go back to her? Besides, how does she know that I hate Frances?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve said thousands of times to him. And I don\u2019t want to have any connections with him now. Please don\u2019t make me feel embarrassed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, I point towards the door, expecting her to leave.<\/p>\n<p>She is probably driven desperate to turn to me for help? But I\u2019m just an unimportant woman to him. What\u2019s the point of counting on me?<\/p>\n<p>She gives me a long searching look and leaves reluctantly.<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon, Steven calls me and tells me that Frances and Whitney have divorced.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s all you call me to tell?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whitney is such a mad dog that bites anyone when going crazy.<\/p>\n<p>In the evening, I go to work at the bar. Disappointedly, Frances doesn\u2019t come, and surprisingly, Whitney comes to the bar, looking indignant and horrible.<\/p>\n<p>She is followed by two big and tall men, and they walk directly towards me.<\/p>\n<p>Customers in the bar are somewhat stunned and involuntarily give way to them.<\/p>\n<p>The men sent by Steven for my security also sense that something is wrong here, so they walk over quickly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBitch! I demeaned myself to beg for your help and you choose to stand by. I won\u2019t make it possible for you to stay with Frances!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She names me viciously, and then she takes a bottle of liquid out of her bag, splashing it towards my face.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-293","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/293","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=293"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
