In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 153

“What’s this?”

“See for yourself.”

He says coldly.

Huh, pretending to be indifferent?

I curl my lips, take the thing in his hand and open it. It turns out to be a dress from DS.

He is buying me clothes.

Frances being considerate is making me more confused.

I vow to hate him just now, but because of his petty favors, my heart is softened.

I look down on myself a little bit.

“It’s a gift from Herman, the latest DS model. I don't wear women's clothing, so I am giving it to you.” He said coldly.

What else can I say? Fortunately, I don’t want to say what I am thinking. Otherwise, I will be laughed at by him for over-thinking.

“I have clothes, so I don't need to wear the expensive ones. Anyway, fancy clothes only match a fancy person.” I hand the clothes back to him, muttering.

Then I get up, take the clothes I dried, and walk to the bathroom.

He grabs my clothes and throws them directly into the trash can.

“Why do you wear wet clothes? Can't I afford buying clothes for you?!”

“Buying? That one is a gift!” I say.

Frances’ face suddenly becomes gloomy again.

For fear that he might throw away this dress, I would have no clothes to wear. I pick up the clothes and walk towards the bathroom.

The clothes really fit me as if they were made for me. I can't help but wonder, is it really a gift from Herman?

“Let’s go out and eat.”

I whisper softly, not knowing whether I am talking to him or asking myself.

There is no answer from him. Hearing his sound breath, he probably already falls asleep.

Without saying anything, I close my eyes, ready to fall asleep.

In a daze, I hear Frances saying, “Shall we live a lifetime like this?"

It wakes me up.

But I know that it is not for me.

He is still married. And vowing for a lifetime is absolutely impossible.

Over-thinking once or twice may be fine but doing it for too many times make me look stupid.

There is no future between you and Frances, Jane.

I remind myself time after time, finally letting my heart cold down.
