Chapter 539
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 539<\/p>\n
His concern makes it hard for me to give up on him.<\/p>\n
I don’t need this kind of concern at all.<\/p>\n
He wants to say something, but he remains silent in the end.<\/p>\n
Hilda returns from the bathroom and sits down, leaning on his shoulder.<\/p>\n
“Frances, I’m so tired.”<\/p>\n
“Have a rest. I’ll wake you up when we arrive.”<\/p>\n
Frances\u2019 voice sounds gentle and affectionate, tearing my heart.<\/p>\n
He used to be this gentle to me.<\/p>\n
But now, that’ll never happen again.<\/p>\n
These ten hours of the flight are the most lasting torture for me.<\/p>\n
I don’t know how I survive this torment. When I get to the United States, I am more than exhausted.<\/p>\n
I don’t want to stay any longer and get off the plane.<\/p>\n
I need to stay in the United States for a month. I have already asked Mindy to find a dwelling for me.<\/p>\n
After arriving at my residence, I finally get a good night’s sleep.<\/p>\n
However, when I wake up the next morning, I realize that the scald on my hand seems to have gotten worse.<\/p>\n
Yesterday, I was too tired to pay attention, but now I find it is red and swollen.<\/p>\n
There are even a few blisters.<\/p>\n
Being burned is really painful.<\/p>\n
I suddenly think of old Mr. Louis. At that time, old Mr. Louis saved me, so that I dodged a calamity.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, before I can express my gratitude to him, he is already gone.<\/p>\n
His death is definitely related to Hilda.<\/p>\n
If I get the chance, I will definitely avenge him.<\/p>\n
The scald on my hand affects my work very much. I can’t help but go to the hospital.<\/p>\n
In the public hospitals in the United States, I have to wait in a long queue, and I can only go to the expensive private hospitals.<\/p>\n
“Jane, what should I do? Penelope has been suffering from fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. She is extremely weak.”<\/p>\n
“How did this happen?” I ask anxiously, my heart clench into a ball.<\/p>\n
She is so little. Why should she suffer like this?<\/p>\n
If only I could bear all of this for her! Unfortunately, there is nothing I can do but watch her suffer.<\/p>\n
No, now that I’m overseas, even a glance at her becomes a luxury.<\/p>\n
“Jane, the twenty thousand left has been ran out. The doctor said that Penelope’s illness is very serious. If she doesn’t receive another blood transfusion, maybe….”<\/p>\n
Mom doesn’t say anything else, but I get her.<\/p>\n
I don’t have any extra money. Right now, I can only borrow some money from Mindy for the time being.<\/p>\n
I call Mindy, but no one answers.<\/p>\n
Sitting in a quiet caf\u00e9, I finally burst into tears.<\/p>\n
