In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 207

Secret?

What kind of secret?

Just when I open my mouth to ask for more information, Nicole leaves.

Actually I can see that she has her own problems. But the way she uses my trust, makes me feel very bad.

The competition is over, and tomorrow we are on our flight back home.

Frances and Whitney are in first class, while me and Nicole are in economy class.

Before we get back, Herman promises me that there will be plenty of chances to cooperate with DS.

Just as we get back to the company, Steven asks me to come to his office.

“I heard that Whitney almost hurt you with a flowerpot?” He asks straight forward after closing the door.

I laugh, and sit down in the chair opposite to his.

“Shouldn’t you be asking me if I won the price?”

“When I knew that Whitney almost hurt you, I guessed that she knew about you and Frances. Knowing her, she would never let you win anything after finding out.”

Steven says calmly, his face showing no emotions.

“You know her well.” I purse my lips.

Steven’s face expression suddenly darkens, he looks very serious.

“I am worried about you. I think you should leave Frances. You have no idea what Whitney will do to you if she gets furious.”

This...

Even if Steven doesn’t say, I know it well enough. But Frances doesn’t let me go, what can I do?

I give a bitter laugh, and tell Steven, “Now that I lost the competition, the million is also gone, I really don’t have any other ideas on how to leave him.”

“Let me send you away, Jane, I know a way how Frances can never find you again.”

Steven stands up and suddenly holds my hand.
