In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 429

Having sex improves our relationship. In other word, I don’t want to continue cold war with Frances. That only benefits Hilda. So I am reconciled with Frances naturally.

Till night, I tell Frances that Whitney Jordan has sent me a lawyer’s letter. “In your opinion, what should I do? If she won the case, how long will I be sentenced?” As far a place like jail, whoever would be afraid.

Frances hugs me in his arms and lightly kisses my forehead. “Don’t worry, she won’t succeed. I already arranged some people to handle this and hired the best lawyer for you today afternoon.”

Although Frances promises, I still feel uneasy. Because of that, we make a long talk before finally I fall asleep.

A few days later, Frances accompanies me to the court. It’s my first time to stand in the dock so that I am very nervous. I keep my eye on the direction of Frances. However, every time I look at him, I can also see Hilda who sits by him. Because of that, I decide not to see there.

Although Whitney Jordan doesn’t have any exact evidence, her lawyer is really good so the situation is not good for me in the beginning. However, Frances hires a more excellent lawyer. He gets me off in a few words. Though I clearly know that I’m guilty, I really don’t want to be convicted now. In the end, the judge pronounces me not guilty because of insufficient evidence. But I know Whitney Jordan won’t give up easily so that she definitely will apply for second trial. And it would be harder to win.
