Chapter 623
\nIn My Desperate Time novel Chapter 623<\/p>\n

Then her mother quickly gets up from the ground and flees.<\/p>\n

Jane apologizes to me and leaves in a hurry.<\/p>\n

I watch as she gets away and smile.<\/p>\n

By now, the lawyer’s letter should have been arrived at her home.<\/p>\n

I really hope that they will divorce soon so that I can have her by my side.<\/p>\n

After all, she shall come to me soon after receiving the lawyer’s letter.<\/p>\n

As expected, she comes the next day.<\/p>\n

Betty does not know Jane, so she doesn’t let Jane in immediately.<\/p>\n

I finally manage to get Jane to come to me. Of course I won’t let her go.<\/p>\n

“Bring her in.”<\/p>\n

I look at myself in the mirror. My clothes are neat and I look fine.<\/p>\n

I guess I’m ready to see her now.<\/p>\n

‘Since when do I become so nervous just to leave a good impression for her?’<\/p>\n

Only when I take a sip of the red wine do I calm myself down a little.<\/p>\n

I deliberately turn around, trying to hide my nervousness from her, so that I can feel at ease.<\/p>\n

“Mr. Louis.”<\/p>\n

Here comes her pleasant voice behind me, causing my heart to skip a beat.<\/p>\n

“Yes.”<\/p>\n

I reply.<\/p>\n

But I’m so nervous that my voice is trembling.<\/p>\n

She hasn’t recognized it, has she?<\/p>\n

I hope so.<\/p>\n

It was so beautiful that I can’t forget.<\/p>\n

I touch her soft hair and whisper, “You still owe me more than 900,000. Let’s say 900,000. Except your expenses, even if you earn 10,000 a month, it will still take seven and a half years for you to pay it off. You know, you’re a woman. You don’t have to work this hard. Why don’t you be my mistress and we’ll write it off?”<\/p>\n

Actually, what I wanted to say was “be my lover”.<\/p>\n

However, I was afraid to frighten her, so I changed the word temporarily.<\/p>\n

But she gets frightened after all.<\/p>\n

She looks at me helplessly, her mouth slightly open.<\/p>\n

I can’t help but lower my head to kiss her in the end.<\/p>\n

So sweet.<\/p>\n

I’m drowning in it.<\/p>\n

Until she suddenly pushes me away and says to me sternly, “Mr. Louis, I am such a person!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-647","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/647","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=647"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
