In My Desperate Time

Chapter 468: Meet Again

The phone is turned off!

Damn it!

I forget to charge it last night. How could I be so unlucky?

Can the audio be saved after the phone is turned off? And what do I record?

I find the charger and charge my phone.

I check the documents of the phone, but after a while, I still find nothing.

It's over. There's no record!

All the hard work just now is in vain!

I grit my teeth. I am so regretful that I even want to slap my head.

How can I stand it? Such an important piece of evidence disappears. It is because I forget to charge my phone.

I don't know when Hilda will say these words again. How long will it take?

I sit there holding my phone in a daze and I'm regretful.

The phone vibrates in my hand. It is from Matt.

He helps me during the lawsuit against Whitney. Why does he call me? Is Whitney up to something?

I answer the phone with mixed feelings, "Hello, Matt, what's the matter?"

"Whitney has already decided to appeal. The court will start in a week. I want you to be prepared."

Obviously, it's the same as I think. Whitney won't give up that easily. She will appeal.

"OK." I say and ask Matt, "What do you need me to do?"

"It's still the same as last time. I'll send you the questions I will ask in court. Just answer them according to the answers I wrote."

Frances recommends Matt for me. Matt is the best lawyer in Virginia, so I trust him.

However, I still feel nervous when I know that I'm going to stand in the dock.

"I see. Thank you, Matt."

After hanging up, I receive a document from Matt.

I glance over it and realize that it's similar to the questions before, and the answers are all good to me.

Among these answers, there are many lies.

I know I shouldn't lie, but I don't want to go to jail. In order to be with Frances and Earl, I don't care about anything.

Because of the record, I'm depressed all day.

In the afternoon, Frances calls me to invite me to practice shooting.

I don't know the point of practicing shooting, especially for me, but Frances wants. He has his reason.

After agreeing to him, I hand Earl over to the nanny and change into comfortable clothes.

I'm unlucky that the taxi breaks down on the way. I have no choice but to get off the car.

The place I stop is a little remote, so it's hard to get a taxi. I stand in the cold wind for a long time, but I don't get a taxi.

Suddenly, a Mercedes-Benz stops in front of me.

I see a face that I'm familiar with, but I don't want to meet him.

Noah.

I don't know that I'll meet him here. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Seeing him, I feel complicated.

Guilt, apprehension, and regret.

Perhaps first love is to make people cherish the memory. In the end, the person she liked so much could only become the past.

"Are you taking a taxi?"

He asks me. Although his tone is gentle, there is still arrogance in his tone.

It seems that he becomes arrogant when he succeeds.

Although Frances is more successful, he isn't arrogant as Noah.

In short, the appearance of Noah makes me uncomfortable.

It seems that his appearance is to humiliate me and he wants to prove that I made the wrong decision before.
