In My Desperate Time

Chapter 425 Not Everyone Likes Me

Sabina is stunned because she doesn’t expect that Frances Louis would make such a decision. However, she nods in the end. Maybe she can’t bear hiding all the day.

“Well, don’t get angry, Frances. Old Mr. Louis will be fine.” Hilda Farey says softly. I look at her warily while she smiles demurely. When a man is irritable, he must feel at ease when seeing such a face. Hilda is really good at utilizing men’ weakness. Suddenly I worry a little that she would manage to tempt Frances.

Fortunately Frances just glances at her and then sits by me. Looking at Earl in my arms, Frances asks, “Is Earl sleeping? Has he been scared?”

Looking at Hilda complacently, I nod, “Nope, he is too little to understand what’s happening.” Hearing my answer, Frances nods, holds my hand, sits silently and doesn’t say more. I can feel that he is rather nervous because his hand is sweaty and he holds me tightly. I don’t say more and just allow him to hold my hand like this. Finally, the door of the operating room is open.

The doctor tells us that old Mr. Louis went fainted because he was too excited, causing a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. And he lost balance because of cerebral hemorrhage, so he fell from upstairs. Fortunately, he has passed the dangerous period after operations. Sabina takes a long breath, then pushes the wheelchair and leaves the hospital.

Old Mr. Louis needs to stay in ICU for one night. As I have to take care of Earl, I go back after staying for a while. Honestly, I am really worried about leaving Frances and Hilda alone in the hospital. However, for the sake of the children, there is no alternative.

Sabina just finishes packaging and plans to leave when I arrive at home. Her expression is rather down. It softens my heart. I go toward her and say softly, “Mom, take care.” Sabina looks at me deeply and gets on the car without saying a word.

Over the whole night, I am sleepless because Earl is rather noisy. Next morning, Frances takes old Mr. Louis home and even arrange a doctor at home to monitor his condition. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Unexpectedly, Hilda also come with him. Moreover, old Mr. Louis treats her rather kindly, like the way he treated me before. The big difference upsets me.

Is Hilda too scheming so that she even win old Mr. Louis’s heart? I silently watch them talking and laughing. Till lunch, Hilda looks at her watch and says, “Old Mr. Louis, I shall go now. My child is waiting for me. I will see you when available.”

Old Mr. Louis holds her and says lightly, “How about moving to live here? It’s rather inconvenient for a widow and orphan to live alone. If you live here, we can take care of you.”

“I am afraid it’s not apt. Not everyone in the family likes me.” Hilda looks at me and says meaningfully. Yes, it’s me who doesn’t like her, I hate her.

However, old Mr. Louis is tempted by her. Old Mr. Louis rolls his eyes and says disapprovingly, “I have the final say in this family. Moreover, as your relationship with Frances is so good, there is nothing wrong. Seeing you makes me glad, maybe I will heal faster."
