Chapter 555
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 555<\/p>\n
I stretch out my hand and take it out.<\/p>\n
It’s… the photo.<\/p>\n
A photo of me snapped by him!<\/p>\n
Why is this photo in his pocket?<\/p>\n
Can it be…?<\/p>\n
No … It can’t be.<\/p>\n
I am no longer in his heart. Perhaps, it has always been in his pocket and he just forgot to take it out.<\/p>\n
I say this to myself. But even I myself don’t believe the explanation.<\/p>\n
Funny enough, my heart is in a mess because of Frances’ subconscious movements.<\/p>\n
The most tragic thing in the world is not to be hurt by your loved one and feel like crap.<\/p>\n
But that my heart is broken but I still can’t give up.<\/p>\n
“Why are you here?”<\/p>\n
At the door, Frances\u2019 voice suddenly sounds.<\/p>\n
I am shocked and the photo in my hand falls to the ground.<\/p>\n
Frances’ expression instantly becomes spooky.<\/p>\n
“How dare you barge into my office and rummage my things? Get out!”<\/p>\n
He walks over, picks up the photo and throws it into the trash can.<\/p>\n
In his eyes, flames seem to spout.<\/p>\n
The anger in his eyes scares me, but there are some questions I have to ask.<\/p>\n
“Why do you still have this photo?” I ask expectantly as I stare at him.<\/p>\n
Because of nervousness, my voice trembles.<\/p>\n
“It’s just a meaningless photo. I don’t bother to throw it away.” He says coldly in a deep voice while looking at me. “You barged into my office, and if there’s no explanation, I’ll call the security guards to take you away.”<\/p>\n
Security guards? Again?<\/p>\n
He really doesn’t want to see me?<\/p>\n
I look at the photo lying in the trash can, and my heart feels like being stabbed by a knife.<\/p>\n
I think I won’t care. However, I feel like dying from sadness because of his simple action.<\/p>\n
I know this very well.<\/p>\n
Frances stares at me for a few seconds and then admits it.<\/p>\n
“Penelope is safe with me, and her illness has always been under control. You don’t have to worry.”<\/p>\n
I’m not worried.<\/p>\n
When I found out that Penelope was taken away by him, I wasn’t worried anymore.<\/p>\n
However, Penelope is my child, I want to take her back and take good care of her!<\/p>\n
Even though it is extremely difficult to pay off her medical expenses, she is my only hope.<\/p>\n
“Penelope is my child, and I will take good care of her. Return her to me. You have Earl and Hilda, but I have nothing. Frances, give Penelope back to me, please.”<\/p>\n
I look at him and plead.<\/p>\n
I begged him twice in this day.<\/p>\n
Twice, for the sake of the child.<\/p>\n
But Frances is colder than I thought.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-579","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/579","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=579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
