Chapter 480
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 480<\/p>\n
Have the police arrived?<\/p>\n
The men panic. But as well-trained ex-soldiers, they quickly take out their guns and get out after exchanging glances.<\/p>\n
I breathe a sigh of relief and black out.<\/p>\n
In a daze, I vaguely hear someone calling my name.<\/p>\n
Is it Frances?<\/p>\n
I am too dizzy to tell it.<\/p>\n
I want to open my eyes, but I feel too tired, sleepy, and cold.<\/p>\n
At last, I lose consciousness.<\/p>\n
In my sleep, I am surrounded by a few men. They assault me one after another.<\/p>\n
I cry and shout, but no one comes to save me. I could only endure the inhumane torture over and over again.<\/p>\n
“Frances! Frances, save me!”<\/p>\n
I wave my hands in the air. Suddenly, I grab a pair of warm hands.<\/p>\n
I open my eyes.<\/p>\n
And I meet Frances’ sad gaze.<\/p>\n
He reaches out and gently wipes the tears off my face.<\/p>\n
I look at him blankly and cry.<\/p>\n
“Am I dreaming? Frances, tell me, It’s not a dream. You are really here, right?”<\/p>\n
He nods and holds me in his arms, whispering, “It’s me. Jane, I’m here.”<\/p>\n
He holds me so tight that my wounds hurt badly. And I almost lose my breath.<\/p>\n
But right now, I need the pain to let me know that it is not a dream.<\/p>\n
“You finally came. Frances, I’m so scared.”<\/p>\n
Fortunately, Frances has come. Otherwise, I don’t know if I can survive their torture.<\/p>\n
And even if I survive, I won’t know how to face Frances.<\/p>\n
“It’s alright. I’m here. I am always by your side.”<\/p>\n
Hilda hinted that I should go find Whitney. She didn’t say it directly. Even if I tell him that Hilda asked me to do so, Frances may not believe it.<\/p>\n
It seems that I can’t compete with Hilda.<\/p>\n
I force a smile and say, “I want to help you. I don’t want the company to have trouble because of me. I don\u2019t want the Louis Group to go bankrupt because of me. And I don\u2019t want you to lose everything.”<\/p>\n
As I finish, Frances kisses me.<\/p>\n
It is a long and affectionate kiss.<\/p>\n
I am immersed in his kiss. But tears drop down.<\/p>\n
I thought that I would never have the chance to kiss him again.<\/p>\n
After a long time, Frances let go of me and says fondly, “Stupid girl. Why would I lose everything? I don’t care anything. I just want you to be with me. I just want you to be safe and sound.”<\/p>\n
I have been scared and anxious. What he says touches me. I can’t help crying. Tears stream down my face.<\/p>\n
At such a cozy moment, a cold male voice suddenly comes from outside.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Frances, Whitney has been acquitted.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-504","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/504","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=504"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
