In My Desperate Time

Wife?

Is she Frances’ ex-wife?

I think Frances only has an ex-wife, Whitney. Now he seems to have more ex-wives.

I force a smile and shake my head. "I don't know that you are Frances' ex-wife."

"Ex-wife? Who told you I am his ex-wife?" Hilda smiles faintly and rejects me.

"We registered for marriage abroad. Although our marriage is not recognized at home, we are indeed a couple."

What Hilda said upsets me.

She and Frances are a couple. Who am I to Frances?
