In My Desperate Time

Chapter 180 Why did She Help Me

Signing a contract with DS means that there will be many cooperation opportunities with this company. I missed an opportunity before, this time I don’t want to miss it again.

It is so painful for me to stay with Frances.

We’re going to pick one person from the design department. I really hope I can take part in this competition, so I write down my own name.

Steven starts counting the votes. In the end, I get the highest number of votes.

That’s beyond my expectation.

I know that I have a bad interpersonal relationship in the company. I don’t expect other colleagues to vote for me at all, otherwise, I won’t write my name.

"Well, the person to go to France has been decided. Jane, Nicole, get ready and fly to France in the evening." Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Steven smiles at me. He seems to be very happy.

He asks me to stay in the meeting room. After everyone else has gone, he says to me, "Jane, this time, you have to take advantage of the opportunity. I know you’re talented. As long as you succeed, it’s easy to leave Frances."

I force a smile, but I’m not happy.

I love Frances, but I have to leave him. It’s too painful for me.

I give Noah a call. As soon as he answers the phone, he affectionately calls me "honey".

"Don’t call me that," I say unhappily.

"You have agreed to my proposal. Sooner or later you will be my wife."

Noah seems happy. Frances hasn’t bothered him yet. So, I’m relieved for a while.

How can I explain to Noah the thing of last night?

I just wanted to save him, not to marry him.

"In fact, I am..."

"I’ll call you in the evening. I’m going to class now."

Then Noah hangs up in a hurry. I have no chance to say what I want to say.

I sigh, get up and go to the tea room to have a cup of coffee.

As soon as I get to the door, I hear two people whispering inside.

"May, did you vote for Jane, too?" Alisha asks. She sits opposite me. And she is a beautiful woman, but her talent is mediocre. She dresses up every day and wants to be Steven’s girlfriend.

"Yes. Nicole asked me to vote for Jane, and I had to do it. I don’t why? Last time, Jane hurt Nicole. Why did she want to help Jane?"

I’m stunned.

Actually, when Steven announced that I could go to France, I even thought he was helping me. But I didn’t expect that Nicole would help me.

Nicole hates me so much. Why would she help me?

"We just have to follow the instructions of our superiors, and we can’t be wrong. Even if we go to that competition, we won’t win the prize. Let Jane lose face."

Alisha walks out with May. They feel shocked when they see me standing at the door. They take a look at me and leave in a hurry.

I want to ask Nicole why she helped me. But she isn’t in the office all afternoon. My question has never been resolved.

After work, I go home to pick up some things and go to the airport.

As soon as I get to the airport, I meet Donny.

"Jane, long time no see!" Donny greets me warmly.

I walk over with a smile, only to find Nicole standing not far away.
