In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 181

She looks at me with resentment, just like I stole her man.

Nicole likes Donny and I can see it from her eyes.

“Donny, where are you going? You don't want to stay in China?”

Donny shrugs and says, “There's no other way, DS suddenly makes a competition and surprises me. I must go back first.”

“Aren't you an internationally famous designer? Would you not know if there's a competition?” I laugh.

“I might be a fake designer.”

I keep chatting with Donny while walking into the big hall.

I wave my hand at Nicole and speaks to Donny, “This is Nicole. You know her, right?”

“Yes, she's the one who copied your works... Right?” Donny glances at Nicole with slight disdain.

I just want them to chat nicely... I never expected the situation to be awkward like this.

I don't have the nerve to say anything else until we get on the plane.

I don't know if it's destiny... Donny and Nicole is on the same row, while I'm right behind them. Donny clearly doesn't really like Nicole. I immediately close my eyes and pretend that I'm asleep, in case he comes and wants to switch seats with me.

I can faintly hear Nicole's voice faintly from the front seat.

“Donny, you really think that I copied Jane's work? I did it just because I'm jealous that you kept helping her. You already treat her so well after meeting her for just a few times only. We've known each other for more than ten years... Why can't you face my feelings for you?”

I feel a bit shocked.

It turns out that Donny and Nicole have known each other since long ago.

Nicole has always been liking Donny one-sidedly.

“Sophia is the only person I'll ever love.” Donny says that indifferently.

“But she's dead! She never came back after she surfed and crashed a big wave! She's long gone, why are you deceiving yourself?! Both You and Herman are doing it, how long will you two keep deceiving yourselves?! Moreover, even if she's still alive... She'll love Herman and not you!”

If I don't hear what Nicole says myself... I really can't imagine that there's such a complicated story within them.

Nicole loves Donny, while Donny and Herman both love Sophia. The leather belt that Herman always wears is Sophia's design.

“Nicole, she can't be dead. Even if she's really gone, she will always live in my heart. No one can replace her.”

Donny's voice weighs down with sorrow. He's totally different from the energetic and bright guy I saw before.

Nicole just walks to the toilet without saying anything else.

I raise my head and look at her.

She faintly holds back her tears.

Right now, I don't feel any hatred towards Nicole.

The design plagiarism matter is solved, and she did it because of her love for a man.

We both understand how painful it is to love but not to get.

In the hotel that the sponsor arranged for us... Nicole stays in the room beside mine and Donny stays in the room next to the room besides mine.

I take a bath and prepare to sleep until tomorrow morning.

Not long after laying down, Donny knocks on my door and says that he wants us to eat together.

I rub my belly... Well, I'm a bit hungry.

I was too busy to eat anything because I kept pretending to be asleep on the plane.

I don't want to torture my stomach so I change my clothes and go with Donny, conveniently see how Paris looks at night.

Frances and Whitney are the first people after closing the door.

I want to hide, but it's too late.
