In My Desperate Time

Chapter 320: A Lifetime

After Betty comes, Frances drives me out.

Frances heads straight towards the suburbs. Unexpectedly, he drives in the direction of my home.

In the end, he stops at my hometown.

"Frances, is your father buried here?"

I'm a little confused.

"Yes."

Frances nods lightly and walks towards a green grocery across the street to buy some fruit. He then goes to the funeral supplies shop next to him for some incense and joss paper.

I finally believe that Frances' father is really buried here.

No wonder Sabina can't find Fernando's grave for so many years. Perhaps she will never expect that the most dangerous place is the safest one.

No one will believe that the Louis have buried Fernando so close to where he had the car accident.

After getting things he wants, Frances drives me for a while before stopping in front of a cemetery.

The cemetery is well renovated, with the name of Fernando carved on it.

Looking at Fernando's photos, I find that he looks similar to Frances.

Taking advantage of the gap when Frances is displaying offerings, I take out my phone and secretly send Sabina the location.

"The grave is right here. You can come after we leave. I'll let you know when."

Sabina replies soon that she gets it.

When I put back my phone, Frances happens to turn around, which astonishes me.

He walks over and takes me up to the tombstone while holding my hand.

"Dad, this is Jane, my wife."

He gives me a meaningful look as he introduces.

I wonder if it's my misconception that Frances looked at me affectionately just now.

It's definitely my illusion.

Frances continues, "Let bygones be bygones. I want to be with Jane for the rest of my life."

His voice isn't loud, but I can clearly hear it.

Does he say that he wants to be with me for the rest of his life?

My heart beats violently uncontrollably. I know I shouldn't have such an emotion. However, I fail to control myself and I'm deeply disturbed by his words.

Later, I don't listen carefully to what Frances says.

At his insistence, I burn some joss paper for Fernando. Finally, I bow deeply and leave.

On the way back to the car, I send a message to Sabina that we have left.

"Since you are already out of the house and Betty will take care of Earl, follow me to the company."

As Frances speaks, he directly brings me to the company regardless of whether I agree or not.

As Frances' wife, I'm highly respected. When I go to the tearoom, many staffs offer to make coffee for me.

Frances goes to a meeting. I sit alone in the office, drinking coffee and watching TV shows.

After a while, I'm really bored and begin to browse the news of the latest fashion week.

After reading it for a while, I have an inspiration suddenly and I begin to design.

No matter what, it's always right to earn more money. Besides, design is something I like.

However, after drawing for a while, I feel some warm liquid flowing out of my body. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

I should be having a period.

I heave a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I'm not pregnant, which means I didn't take that pill in vain.

Thinking of that pill, I suddenly remember Frances found out about it at that time.
