In My Desperate Time

Chapter 245: Don’t Tell Me

“I won’t come back. I’ve made up my mind. As for the money for the house and other stuff, I’ll transfer it to you when I finish calculating the sum.”

“Come on. You are my friend. I just want to help you.”

Steven shakes his head and smiles at me.

“We are friends, but I don’t want to owe you too much. You’ve helped me a lot. I know that you are not short of money, but...”

“Jane, you don’t owe me anything. It’ll kill me if I don’t do something. So just take it, please.”

Steven’s tone softens, and he looks at me with a pleading gaze.

I don’t know how to refuse him, so I nod.

After bidding farewell to Steven, I go home.

Whitney is in a good mood. She is sitting on the sofa, holding her phone with a smile. I don’t know who she is talking to.

“Are you leaving tomorrow morning?” Seeing me come back, she stops me and asks again.

“Exactly.” I roll my eyes and show her the ticket. This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Anyway, even if she knows where I am going, she won’t tell Frances.

Moreover, I am going to transfer there. Steven has prepared a helicopter to take me to my destination. I don’t need to worry about my whereabouts being leaked.

“As long as you are still here, I can’t settle down.”

Whitney curls her lips and gives the plane ticket back to me.

I go upstairs to pack up my luggage. After confirming that nothing is left behind, I call Mindy.

“Mindy, I am leaving. I am leaving Virginia and Frances. I’ll call you when I arrive at my destination.”

“Are you sure? Have you made all the arrangements? Are you sure that Frances won’t be able to find you?” Mindy asks a lot of questions. I simply answer “yes”. But then I feel like crying.

Actually, I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave this city. I don’t want to leave Frances. But I have to go.

“Forget about it, you’d better not tell me where you will go. It’s alright as long as you are safe. If you tell me, I may tell David. And then he’ll tell Frances...”

Mindy is right. When I got pregnant, David had asked me to tell Frances.

I say, “Then tell my future son-in-law, don’t blame his godmother.”

“Don’t worry.”

I chatted with Mindy for a long time, and I don’t know when I fell asleep.

I am woken up by a knock on the door. I open the door and see Whitney standing at the door. “Just came to remind you of the time. I am afraid that you will miss the plane.”

It’s already seven o’clock. The plane takes off at nine o’clock. I may not catch it if I don’t set off now.

“Thank you.”

After saying that, I close the door and begin to change clothes and wash up.

I know she is just afraid that I might change my mind. She’s not being nice. But if she hasn’t woken me up, I might have overslept and missed the plane.

And if I miss it, I might not be able to leave.

After I get things done, I hurry out and take a taxi to the airport.

As soon as I enter the hall, I see Frances talking with another person. And they are walking in my direction.

I’m only a hundred meters away from him, and there’s no place for me to hide. What should I do?
