Chapter 24
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 24<\/p>\n
He holds me in his arms. Maybe his voice is too soft or maybe my mind is too dizzy. I almost says yes.<\/p>\n
But soon after, I come to my sense.<\/p>\n
If I become Frances Louis\u2019s mistress, I will never keep my head up in front of others for the rest of my life.<\/p>\n
I open the car door hurriedly and get off Frances Louis.<\/p>\n
Because the action is too fierce, my legs softened, and I fell to the ground awkwardly, but I stubbornly say, \u201cI will not be your mistress. I\u2019m very grateful that you saved my life today. I will try to repay your kindness and the money I owe you. But I will not trample myself.\u201d<\/p>\n
I do not know whether my words will irritate Frances Louis. For a long time, he doesn\u2019t speak, which only makes me more nervous.<\/p>\n
He starts the car and pauses as he passes me.<\/p>\n
I know he is waiting for me to change my mind.<\/p>\n
Finally, seeing that I don\u2019t mean to nod, Frances Louis gives me a deep look and drives away in the dust.<\/p>\n
This man is so irresponsible! He leaves me in the middle of nowhere. How am I going to get back?<\/p>\n
I don’t want others to see me in a mess. I can only call Steven Song, I give him my position, and he doesn\u2019t ask details and agrees.<\/p>\n
By the time Steven Song arrives, it is already getting dark.<\/p>\n
He gets out of the car and sees me, but he doesn\u2019t dare come over. Instead, he stands there and asks, \u201cAre you all right?\u201d<\/p>\n
I know, looking at the way I am now, anyone would freak out. I have been rolling on the ground covered with mud, and my clothes have been torn by Frances Louis. There are only a few rags that could cover me hardly.<\/p>\n
I smile to Steven Song, \u201cI am okay.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then he comes over. He takes off his coat and puts it on me, but never asks me what happened.<\/p>\n
When we get home, Steven Song kindly orders the takeout. I eat some and go back to my room.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t sleep for a long time.<\/p>\n
She is full of arrogance. Suddenly I don\u2019t know how to explain. I don\u2019t want to say something wrong and bring me trouble.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you have any problem with her living in my house?\u201d<\/p>\n
Steven Song\u2019s lazy sound comes behind me. I turn my head and see him come out with only a pair of shorts on. I turn my eyes away and grumble. He is really casual in his own house.<\/p>\n
\u201cSteven.\u201d<\/p>\n
As soon as the two women see Steven Song, they all change their faces.<\/p>\n
Instead, Steven Song comes over, wrapping his arms around my waist, and saying vaguely in my ear, \u201cHoney, you wake up so early.\u201d<\/p>\n
I freeze there, not knowing how to react.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-48","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/48","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=48"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
