Perhaps Frances doesn't care about the child at all, but I can't do that.
Every time I think of my child, my heart hurts even more.
I can let go of the cruel things that Frances do to me.
But he can't just hurt my child.
I don't have the guts to imagine Frances as the mastermind behind that car accident... Will I really end his life with my own hands?
Frances frowns.
His gaze looks full of uncertainty.
“What are you talking about? When did I ever tell Hamlin to do such thing? How could I do such thing to our child?! I don't even know that we had a child, why didn't you tell me?”
I just look at Frances like that. I don't even know whether the grieve in his face is real or not.
I can't see through him and guess his thoughts.
Back then, he always hid something from me when I thought he didn't fool me.
So now, I choose not to believe any of his words.
I sneer and say, “Sorry, I won't believe anything you say, not even a single word!”
Will I dismiss it from my mind after he say that he's not the one who hurt me?
I was stupid for so long, but not anymore.
Frances helplessly looks at me, like he wants to say something but it just ends up with a sigh. He then makes a call with his stern-looking face.
I subconsciously glance at his phone screen, and Hamlin is written on it.
He's calling Hamlin.
The call connects quickly, but Hamlin hangs up after two rings.
When Frances calls him again, he already turns his phone off.
