In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 41

I think I may have personally pushed myself into the abyss as Steven Song said.

But I have no way, my heart is made of flesh, and I can’t be so ruthless.

Steven Song has come downstairs and helps me take my mother to the hospital.

Even though the fever has reached 40 degrees, my mother still reminds me to help my brother.

Frank Noyes hides at home. He doesn’t go to work, and my father takes care of his meals and life.

As soon as he sees me, Frank Noyes pounces on me as if he is grasping a life-saving straw.

“Sister, you must help me. If you don't help me, I will die! I don't want to go to jail, I don't want to go to jail!”

“Tell me what happened. Do you work at the company of Frances Louis?”

Frank Noyes nods and says, “I work for Frances Louis. Judy Wilson is the leader of our group. She is the one who gives me the hint to leak the plan to Bart Company.”

“Do you have any proof?”

Frank Noyes shakes his head.

I sneer, “Things like this, even if you have proof, it may not be able to keep you safe, let alone you don’t have evidence. Who will believe you?”

But I always have a feeling that there is something wrong with it. It feels like Frances Louis has dug a hole for me.

That night, he said that I would come to see him sooner or later. Was it at that time that he was aware of the it and knew the relationship between Frank Noyes and me?

But even if I know it is a trap, I could only jump down.

“The plan I leaked doesn’t do much damage to the company at all, but now they're biting me in there and they're going to send me to the jail. I know there is something between you and Frances Louis, and you can certainly help me.”

“Jane, you must help your brother. He is the only son of nine generations of our family. You can’t let anything happen to him. This family depends on you.” My father backs him up, which makes want to laugh.

Or actually, I want to cry.
