In My Desperate Time

My colleagues in the company are almost gone, so I consciously get in Frances Louis’s car.

“Why don’t you answer the phone?” Asks Frances Louis faintly.

“You come to me for this?” I ask Frances Louis.

I am considering whether to tell Frances Louis what happened this afternoon.

I can't get over how crazy Frank Noyes looked today.

Would Frances Louis be worried if I told him? Would he blame me for going back to my family again?

After thinking for a while, I decide to not mention to him.

There is no point in telling him because it is all over.

“Answer me.” Frances Louis says in a low voice impatiently.

I know if I don’t answer him, I would definitely make him angry, so I lie, “I accidentally broke the phone, I am going to buy new one.”

Frances Louis, without any doubt, takes me directly to a mobile phone store and buy me a new phone.

I am wondering if he knows the call that Whitney Jordan got earlier.
