Chapter 586
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 586<\/p>\n
What does he mean?<\/p>\n
I stare blankly at Mike, not knowing what to do.<\/p>\n
It is heroin, if I’m right.<\/p>\n
Frances\u2019 gaze darkens as he scowls at the bag and swallows hard.<\/p>\n
He is obviously nervous.<\/p>\n
Who else cannot be nervous when facing this?<\/p>\n
“Mike, I don’t think it’s a good idea. They never took that before.”<\/p>\n
Hilda shakes her head, smiling to decline. Worry overflows from her eyes.<\/p>\n
Generally, drug dealers don’t take drugs. Knowing how terrifying it can be, how will they immerse themselves in it?<\/p>\n
I can’t even imagine how horrible I will get if I become a drug addict.<\/p>\n
My body trembles despite myself and I cringe in Linda’s direction.<\/p>\n
Linda’s brow is knitted and she forces out a smile. “There are so many ways to show good faith. And money is the straightest way of all. Why must we employ such a way that pleases no one?” She says to Mike.<\/p>\n
“No. It pleases me. And whatever pleases me is the best way.” Mike gently shakes the wine glass and says indifferently.<\/p>\n
He doesn’t care at all about who will take the drug.<\/p>\n
“My man can’t take that. I heard drug would affect men’s sexual performance. Hilda will be happy to do it.”<\/p>\n
She points at Hilda and pretends she feels sorry for losing this opportunity.<\/p>\n
Hilda is shocked. She probably doesn’t expect Linda will give up so easily.<\/p>\n
But only I know that she never strives for it.<\/p>\n
Hilda looks at Frances and then at the bag on the table. She must be struggling.<\/p>\n
Or she is weighing whether Frances or the money matters more.<\/p>\n
In the end, her gaze is fixed on the bag of white powder.<\/p>\n
I know she has made her decision.<\/p>\n
My nerves are stretched to the breaking point.<\/p>\n
An image flashes before my mind. It is Frances being shot last time.<\/p>\n
I don’t want to experience that again!<\/p>\n
I have a sudden impulse to stand in his crosshairs.<\/p>\n
Frances won’t be in danger then.<\/p>\n
But as I’m just about to move, Linda stops me.<\/p>\n
She makes me a sign to wait.<\/p>\n
I can only resist the impulse and sit down.<\/p>\n
Mike says coldly.<\/p>\n
“You have to play by my rules. Either of you must take it. Otherwise, I will kill both of you.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-610","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/610","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=610"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
