Chapter 342
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 342<\/p>\n
Found them?<\/p>\n
I stand up, I feel excitement rising in me.<\/p>\n
The other two are bribed into this, so as long as we can offer the money, they will surely tell us the truth.<\/p>\n
“Okay, tell me the address, I will be there in a second.”<\/p>\n
But, I don’t know how much money they will ask me for, will they start with a huge amount?<\/p>\n
I don’t have that much, but I know someone else who does.<\/p>\n
Usually, I don’t sue his money, but this is not usually, there is nobody else I can ask. This is my own matter, I cannot ask Mindy to pay this money for me.<\/p>\n
“Uhm, Frances, I need to go out for something, can you give me some money?”<\/p>\n
I look at him embarrassed, and hesitate to ask.<\/p>\n
“Where are you going?”<\/p>\n
I thought he will ask me how much money I need, but I have not guessed this will be his first question.<\/p>\n
His focus lays on something else than mine.<\/p>\n
“Mindy is asking me to go shopping with her, I want to buy some bags and shoes, I want to buy a lot.”<\/p>\n
“I am injured, and you are thinking about shopping?” Frances brows are knit, he looks very sad.<\/p>\n
Even I feel that my excuse seems a little off.<\/p>\n
But I don’t know how to lie, especially when I am talking to Frances.<\/p>\n
No matter what I say, he always knows what is going on.<\/p>\n
But since I said already, there is no chance to get back.<\/p>\n
“Can I?” I look at him with eyes of a poor, wronged girl, I try to make myself as pitiful as possible.<\/p>\n
He stares at me in a long gaze, and then sighs, he takes out a bank card from his bag and hands it to me.<\/p>\n
I don’t know how much money is in that card, but it should be enough.<\/p>\n
I take over his card excited, and tell him, “I will pay you back when I have money.”<\/p>\n
Then I run out with the card in my pocket, to the address Mindy sent me, it is a club.<\/p>\n
Of course, I don’t believe their words.<\/p>\n
When I entered the room, their gaze has already given them out.<\/p>\n
As long as I have enough money, I can bribe them.<\/p>\n
It’s good that I am prepared.<\/p>\n
“Do you remember now? Do you remember what you did in Prague?”<\/p>\n
I open my bad, and take out piles of money.<\/p>\n
There are 20k.<\/p>\n
Their gaze are fleet, but they still don’t look like they are ready to talk.<\/p>\n
I guess, this is not enough. But of course, I didn’t think they will talk with just 20k. So before I came here, I withdrew enough. This money is quite heavy, my shoulders hurt from carrying the bag.<\/p>\n
It’s the first time that I get the feeling of throwing money at others, it feels pretty good.<\/p>\n
I take pile after pile, and as I get to the 10th pile, their eyes start to light up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-366","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/366","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=366"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
