Chapter 364
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 364<\/p>\n
It’s finished!<\/p>\n
We can’t hide it anymore.<\/p>\n
I get flustered, thinking how I should explain.<\/p>\n
Mom smiles calmly at Frank and says, “What’s the big deal? It’s normal to get wounded by a knife when cooking in the kitchen. When I was cooking in the kitchen, I accidentally nicked myself with the knife in my hand and fell on my head. That’s why I ended up in the hospital. It’s no big deal. I didn’t bleed much.”<\/p>\n
I feel bitter suddenly.<\/p>\n
Mom takes great pains to conceal from Frank.<\/p>\n
That day when I rushed into the bathroom, I was freaked out by the bathtub full of blood. The doctor said that if I had delayed sending her to the hospital, Mom might have died of hemorrhage.<\/p>\n
Mom chooses to conceal all of this just to avoid trouble.<\/p>\n
Frank is not perceptive, so he believes Mom, sitting down in relief.<\/p>\n
“Jane, let me peel an apple for you.”<\/p>\n
I shake my head and say, “No, thanks. I’m going out to eat.”<\/p>\n
Someone’s waiting for me.<\/p>\n
When I came down to my Mom, I told Frances that I would go back to him later. Now that Frank is here, I don’t want Frances to wait too long.<\/p>\n
“Who are you going with? Can you bring me along?” Frank blinks.<\/p>\n
Mom gives him a grumpy look, snapping, “Frances is taking Jane out, and they don’t need a third wheel.”<\/p>\n
I smile, blushing.<\/p>\n
I haven’t told Mom that I’m going out with Frances, but she knows anyway.<\/p>\n
Why do I feel like a school girl going out with a boy and getting caught by her parent?<\/p>\n
Frank purses his lips and helplessly says, “Then I won’t go. It seems that it’s time to find a girlfriend.”<\/p>\n
I couldn’t help thinking of Frank’s ex-girlfriend. He went to steal the company’s secrets because of her, leaving me no choice but to ask Frances for help.<\/p>\n
Perhaps, all of this is destined.<\/p>\n
Although his ex-girlfriend is unreliable, thinking back, I should be grateful to her. If it weren’t for her, Frances and I might not have been together.<\/p>\n
However, I still need to remind Frank.<\/p>\n
“Watch out when you look for a girlfriend this time. Don’t get blinded again.”<\/p>\n
Without hesitation, I take him to the small restaurant.<\/p>\n
It is well after dinner time, and there are few customers inside.<\/p>\n
The restaurateur greets me warmly when he sees me.<\/p>\n
“Here you are! Come and take a seat.”<\/p>\n
The restaurateur ushers us to a table, smiling. “As usual, right?”<\/p>\n
I nod and look at Frances, asking, “How about you?”<\/p>\n
“Same as you.”<\/p>\n
“Two sets of fried rice, please.”<\/p>\n
The restaurateur nods. A short time afterwards, the rice is ready and he comes to serve.<\/p>\n
When he hands the rice to Frances, he suddenly frowns. Staring at Frances for a long time, he shouts.<\/p>\n
