For some reason, I suddenly don't want her to have this child after seeing that she doesn't love him that
much.
And there is only one person who can help me.
Frances.
I don’t know why Frances says he wants to marry me now.
Perhaps this is not a bad thing.
For starters, I can ask Frances to get custody of the child.
Second, I can approach him, find his weakness, and then strike him a fatal hit.
Third, seeing me being with Frances will definitely give Whitney a heavy blow. Such a fatal blow is
more tormenting than hurting her physically.
After thinking about it, I made a decision in my heart.
Although I don't know whether I will get what I want, or it will be overwhelming.
"Whitney, you made me do it. You better not regret it."
I say that to Whitney with a smile, turn around and go into the store. After paying the check, I walk
outside.
Maybe Whitney has no idea what I mean just now. She comes at me while grabbing my arm and asks.
"What do you mean, Jane? What are you going to do?!"
I smile at her and leave without saying anything.
After I get home, I take out my old phone and dials Frances’ number.
I am scared that I will lose the courage if I don’t do it now.
I always keep the phone in my suitcase. It is a souvenir which Steven bought in Prague.
It’s been a long time since I used this phone. I don’t think I would ever use this phone again in my life if
I don’t have to call Frances.
Frances's phone number used to so clear in my mind, that even to the point where I can tell it
backwards fluently.
But I can’t remember anything now, maybe because I want to get him and the past out of my mind
subconsciously.
When I turn on the phone, I feel it is vibrating like crazy, even my hands are numb.
A total of 197 unread text messages.
All comes from Frances.
The last text has only one word.
Jane.
Scrolling. It's almost like copy and paste, all are my name.
He sends a message to me once a day.
After scrolling dozens of them, I stop.
What does Frances mean by sending all these messages?
To warn me?
Why do I feel that he looks gloomy when he sends these messages?
After seeing these messages, I suddenly don’t have the courage to call him.
I am marrying him for revenge. Does he have the same purpose?
But now, I am back against the wall.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
If I don't approach Frances, I may never be able to get justice for my child in my life. And Whitney
would cross the lines with me over and over again.
And that child may be abused by her again.
I can't tolerate it.
In the end, I dial Frances' number.
The call is quickly answered, but Frances remains silent.
I feel so nervous that I don’t even know where to start.
After about a minute of silence, Frances' voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Jane?"
He sounds uncertain.
Maybe he isn’t expecting that I would use this phone again, nor is he expecting that I would call him on
this phone.
"Yeah, it's me." My heart is pounding fast.
"What's the matter?" His voice sounds indifferent, making me more nervous.
But now that my mind is already made up, I don’t have other choices.
After taking a deep breath, I speak up. "You said that you want to marry me. Does it still
count?"
