In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 306

It was a beautiful moment, but now it feels weird.

I know I must have asked the wrong question.

"Well, if you don't feel like talking about it, then pretend I never asked," I say to Frances with embarrassment.

I am having mixed feelings.

Sabina thinks wrongly how much I mean to Frances, and unfortunately, I've made the same mistake. I thought I could ask something like that because I felt I was special to him. How ridiculous!

Just when I think Frances wouldn't tell me, he speaks slowly.

"My father died ten years ago."

I look at him quietly and wait for him to continue. However, he falls silent.

I knew his father died ten years ago. So, can he tell me more?

But that is not going to happen. Therefore, I must fish.

I quickly search for the right words in my head. After organizing my thoughts, I say to Frances, "Well, look, no matter how it happened, we got married. Should I go with you to pay respect to your father at his tomb?"

He turns to look at me, his gaze deep and solemn.

I try to look as sincere as I can, so that he wouldn't tell my true intention.

"My father's death day is a few days away. I'll take you there," he says softly.

I never thought Frances would agree to this.

When Sabina brings a dish out of the kitchen, she happens to hear Frances' words. She is so excited that she almost drops it.

I finally relax.

I should stop here. If I continue, I might sound suspicious.

Frances goes upstairs after dinner.

After I feed the baby milk holding him, I go to prepare a bath for him.
