In My Desperate Time

Chapter 364: I'll Accompany You

It's finished!

We can't hide it anymore.

I get flustered, thinking how I should explain.

Mom smiles calmly at Frank and says, "What's the big deal? It's normal to get wounded by a knife when cooking in the kitchen. When I was cooking in the kitchen, I accidentally nicked myself with the knife in my hand and fell on my head. That's why I ended up in the hospital. It's no big deal. I didn't bleed much."

I feel bitter suddenly.

Mom takes great pains to conceal from Frank.

That day when I rushed into the bathroom, I was freaked out by the bathtub full of blood. The doctor said that if I had delayed sending her to the hospital, Mom might have died of hemorrhage.

Mom chooses to conceal all of this just to avoid trouble.

Frank is not perceptive, so he believes Mom, sitting down in relief.

"Jane, let me peel an apple for you."

I shake my head and say, "No, thanks. I'm going out to eat."

Someone's waiting for me.

When I came down to my Mom, I told Frances that I would go back to him later. Now that Frank is here, I don't want Frances to wait too long.

"Who are you going with? Can you bring me along?" Frank blinks.

Mom gives him a grumpy look, snapping, "Frances is taking Jane out, and they don't need a third wheel."

I smile, blushing.

I haven't told Mom that I'm going out with Frances, but she knows anyway.

Why do I feel like a school girl going out with a boy and getting caught by her parent?

Frank purses his lips and helplessly says, "Then I won't go. It seems that it's time to find a girlfriend."

I couldn't help thinking of Frank's ex-girlfriend. He went to steal the company's secrets because of her, leaving me no choice but to ask Frances for help.

Perhaps, all of this is destined.

Although his ex-girlfriend is unreliable, thinking back, I should be grateful to her. If it weren't for her, Frances and I might not have been together.

However, I still need to remind Frank.

"Watch out when you look for a girlfriend this time. Don't get blinded again."

After telling Frank how to take care of Mom, I walk out of the ward. When I am going to call Frances, I bump into him.

"Why do you come down?" All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

I am a little surprised.

"Because I don't want you to wait for me, so I come to wait for you."

My heart starts beating violently again.

Why is Frances so good at flirting? Why does my heart beat faster when he makes a casual comment?

Frances naturally holds my hand, heading downstairs.

Since we have patients to look after in the ward, we are going to find a nearby restaurant and grab a bite.

After we get out of the hospital, I find that it is actually near the Second Middle School.

Since we are here, I naturally have to go to that restaurant for fried rice.

Frances took me there last time, so he won't mind, right?

"Go wherever you want. I'll accompany you."

He knows exactly what I'm thinking at a glance. Could this be the legendary connection between two minds?

Without hesitation, I take him to the small restaurant.

It is well after dinner time, and there are few customers inside.

The restaurateur greets me warmly when he sees me.

"Here you are! Come and take a seat."

The restaurateur ushers us to a table, smiling. "As usual, right?"

I nod and look at Frances, asking, "How about you?"

"Same as you."

"Two sets of fried rice, please."

The restaurateur nods. A short time afterwards, the rice is ready and he comes to serve.

When he hands the rice to Frances, he suddenly frowns. Staring at Frances for a long time, he shouts.

"I remember who you are!"
