Chapter 456
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 456<\/p>\n
Why would he have such a look?<\/p>\n
I am still confused when I arrive at the place. I am so lost in thought that I don’t even notice a car is coming.<\/p>\n
Until the man in the car honks the horn at me.<\/p>\n
I look up and meet Steven’s smile.<\/p>\n
He gets off and strides to me.<\/p>\n
“Jane, long time no see.”<\/p>\n
It can be seen that he is carefully dressed up. However, the exhaustion of him still can’t be covered.<\/p>\n
It hurts me to see him in such a sorry state.<\/p>\n
I smile at him and point to the caf\u00e9. “Let’s go inside.”<\/p>\n
Steven nodded and walked into the caf\u00e9 with me.<\/p>\n
The moment we seat ourselves, Frances calls.<\/p>\n
“I’m done here. I’ll be right over.”<\/p>\n
“Alright, hurry up and I’ll wait for you.”<\/p>\n
As I speak, I even kiss my phone in front of Steven.<\/p>\n
Of course, I didn’t do this to Frances before. Plus, he left with Hilda today. I naturally don’t want to talk to him.<\/p>\n
But I have no choice. In order to show Steven how much we love each other, I can only ignore my face.<\/p>\n
Actually, my plan for today is simple.<\/p>\n
First, I’m going to let Steven know that Frances and I love each other, and we are having a good life. It should be made clear to Steven that it’s impossible for us to be together.<\/p>\n
Second, I believe that he has feelings for Violet.<\/p>\n
Perhaps, it is because he is not resigned to give me up that he refuses to confront his true feelings.<\/p>\n
After all, on the wedding, when Violet was talking with another man, Steven’s face darkened.<\/p>\n
If my guess serves me right, my plan should be effective.<\/p>\n
It just requires some money and manpower.<\/p>\n
What do I want?<\/p>\n
To show him the love between Frances and I, of course.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, Frances is here not long after, so I don’t have to continue the awkward chat.<\/p>\n
As we planned last night, when he comes in, he gives me a kiss.<\/p>\n
As I observe, Steven immediately darkens his face but he soon recovers.<\/p>\n
I know it is too cruel for him, and I know it will hurt him.<\/p>\n
But it is sooner rather than later. I have no other choice.<\/p>\n
His eyes dim as he fixed his eyes on me, “Jane, why do you want to see me?”<\/p>\n
Are we finally getting to the point?<\/p>\n
I clear my throat and rest my head on Frances\u2019 shoulder as I state,<\/p>\n
“Next month, Frances and I will hold a wedding ceremony. I’d like to invite you as our witness.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-480","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/480","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=480"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
