In My Desperate Time

Earl is sick. No wonder he hasn't woken up after so long.

I hurriedly go downstairs to fetch a fever cooling pad for Earl. Then I pick him up, feed him medicine and then closely keep an eye on him.

When the sky darkens, Frances returns and directly enters my room.

It is the first time he has come into my bedroom since he left that day.

I feel worse at ease than I was at the hotel.

"What are you doing in my room?"

"What do you follow me to the hotel for?" Instead of answering me, Frances asks.

"I didn't. I just happen to see you, okay?" I explain.

How narcissistic Frances is! How can he be so confident that I follow him here?

"You see me, and then you misunderstand that I'm messing with another woman. So, you go up." Frances looks at me with a smug expression.

There seems to be a faint smile on his face.
