In My Desperate Time

I don’t know what the look on Noah’s face is right now.

Shock? Contempt? Helplessness? Or something else.

His complex look traps me in such an awkward situation that I barely can stand it.

What is happening is still too much for me to take in despite the fact that I knew he would be violently stirred if he was told so.

But I know I have to speak up about it.

Otherwise, it would be too unfair to him.

Noah gazes at me for a long time before he finally stands up and says awkwardly, “I have things to do, and I’m afraid I have to take my leave.”

In my heart, a slight bitterness spreads.

As expected, this is too much for Noah to accept me.

I even thought if he was really willing to have the present me, I would like to live an ordinary and simple life with him after leaving Frances.

It is definitely unfair to him, but if so, at least I’ll lead a happy life for the rest of my life.

After he left, I got to know that he even didn’t pay the bill.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter anymore.

Having paid my bill, I go out and look around, finding that the car that followed me is gone now.
