In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 169

Frances is back tonight.

I am cooking when he comes.

On these days without him at home, I have cooked a lot by myself.

Seeing what I am doing, Frances does not say anything to sit by the table.

He has a look at my phone when I am bringing some dish to the table.

I have not closed the webpage of the news on my phone; he smiled slightly to say, “You read my news.”

I don’t reply him, just rolling my eyes at him.

Everyone knows Frances is somebody who is always trending in the social media. I cannot ignore him in these news.

Then I tell him, “Since I read the big news of today, you are there.”

Frances keeps laughing, “Do you feel bad with it?”

He looks so happy to make fun of me.

I did get mad with his news before knowing Elin Smith is his younger sister. Now I believe what was reported in the news is a joke.

If Frances supposes me to know nothing about them, I pretend to be ignorant of it.

I tell him, “Frances, you are free to date any woman in the world; that’s none of my business. I have my own duty to fulfill.”

Giving him a slight smile, I start to eat something slowly.

Frances seems to be annoyed and goes upstairs.

“Do you finish the meal?”

“Yes. I have no appetite today.” he answers unhappily.

Frances is irritated too easily.

I also go upstairs after finishing the dinner. As soon as passing by the bedside table, I am surprised to see the new box of condoms.
