In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 177

I take his mobile phone and see that above the Weibo headline was a video.

The video was about Noah proposed to me on the rooftop.

My voice in the video when I replied seems much louder than I imagined.

I didn't expect this to get posted online so quickly. However, it’s no surprise.

The comments below are all very romantic and complimenting the lovely couple.

Just what is going through these people's minds; under such a tense situation, how could it be romantic at all? If I did not agree to Noah, who knows what would have happened.

So Frances is angry over this video?

Is he jealous?

People only get jealous over someone they like.

Suddenly, I feel a little tense in my heart.

"Frances, are you jealous?" I look up at him, my heart beating wildly, waiting for his answer.

He sneers, takes back his phone from my hand, and says disdainfully, "Jane, you think too highly of yourself, why in the world would I be jealous over you?! It's just any woman of mine, even one I don't want anymore, no other men can touch her either!"

My heart turns cold completely.

Jane, you really are too full of yourself.

"What’s the matter with you? You saw how critical the situation was at the time. Was there any other way to diffuse the situation besides agreeing to him? I was saving lives!"

"Saving people, or taking advantage of the situation?!" Frances snorts coldly, obviously not believing me.

"I warned you long ago, don't see him again, but you didn’t listen! Jane, don't regret it!"

Frances says, then sticks his hands into his pocket and walks upstairs.

I immediately understand the meaning behind his words. He is going to ruin Noah's job, and likely ruin everything about him.

"No, Frances, I was wrong, don't ruin Noah!"

I beg.

Noah's temperament seems to be much weaker than I thought. What if he can’t handle it and plans to commit suicide again?

Frances stops, turns his head, and smiles at me faintly, "If you do something wrong, you have to bear the consequences. An apology alone will not work for me."

His words are full of icy chills, which made me shudder from head to toe.

However, I really don't want Noah to lose everything he cherishes because of me.

"I was wrong, I will never see him again, I swear!" I say hastily.

"No, he must pay the price for touching you."

As Frances spoke, his hand rub past my lips forcefully.

I then remember that Noah kissed my lips before, and it was all recorded on video.

Damn it!

How can I calm Frances's anger down? With his temperament, he will commit to do what he says, so things are looking really bleak for Noah's future.

"Frances, what do you want me to do? As long as you promise not to touch Noah, I will do anything!" I plead.

If kneeling was useful, I would kneel down right away. But Frances is far too cold-hearted. Unless he gets what he wants, anything I do is useless.

"Do you really love him so much?"

His eyes look more and more dangerous.

"It's not whether I love him or not, it's just that you take things too far. It's not fair to Noah at all. He has done nothing wrong and does not deserve this." I explain.

Frances gives me a cold look and heads upstairs without saying a word, then closes the door.
