In My Desperate Time

Chapter 464: I'm Sorry

"My dad? What happened?" Frances asks lightly.

I find it strange. Fernando has been dead for ten years. Why does Sabina say that it was related to him?

"A few days ago, I dreamed about your dad."

When Sabina speaks of Fernando, I see the sadness in her expression.

"He told me he was really sorry that he left me forever before he could build a music park for me. It was not until then that I recalled before we got married, Fernando once told me he wanted to build a music kingdom for me and the location was the Golden Bay. Now, he's gone, but I still want to have his wish met. So, I'm going to buy the land. You know, although the land area is not large, its price is not cheap. I had no choice, so I sold that ring."

Now, the truth has come out.

Frances sits there without saying anything for a long time.

I don't know what he's thinking. I just sit beside him and gaze at him quietly.

After a long time, I hear him say to Sabina in a hoarse voice, "You could tell me about this."

"I was afraid that you would tell old Mr. Louis. You know how deeply he hates me. If he knew I was doing this, he would do everything he could to stop me."

When Sabina says those words, her tone is aggrieved.

Although Sabina always stands against me, I don't have any resentment towards her.

Instead, I feel sorry for her.

She's lost her beloved man and old Mr. Louis even keeps her away from Fernando's everything. She must have been bearing great anguish and sorrow over the past ten years.

"I will give the money to you, and I won't tell him. As for the ring, you got to have someone buy it back," Frances says in a deep voice.

Schuman's eyes glow with joy as she nods at Frances.

After settling the matter, Frances and I are about to leave.

Sabina glances at me several times. It seems she has something to say to me.

As we reach the door, she says at last, "Jane, I'm sorry."

I don't know what her apologies are for, but these simple words are enough for us to bury the hatchet.

She doesn't do anything unforgivable to me. More importantly, she is Frances’ mother. I shouldn't hold a grudge against her all the time.

After leaving Sabina's house, Frances and I go to the company together.

In the afternoon, the ring is sent over.

Frances puts it back on my finger and says seriously, "Take care of it and do not lose it again. At least, you can't lose it before I put a wedding ring on your finger."

"I promise, I will never take it off again," I nod at him. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Back then, I took off the ring just in a fit of passion. After this lesson, I don't dare to do that again.

These two days, I'm in a good mood and Earl is not noisy. I've been sitting at the table, drawing the designs in earnest.

I want to take part in the Light design competition.

Also, I want to win the championship.

I've drawn the designs for two days. Today, Frances takes me to shoot after work. After that, he goes home with me.

When we reach the door, Hilda's voice comes from inside.
