In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 433

What happened in the morning unsettles me. Even when Frances talks to me, I just give him some perfunctory responds.

Actually, I don't want to say a single word to him, but I'm afraid that Hilda will put on a triumphant look if I keeps silent.

After this incident, Frances bans me from the kitchen again.

He doesn't even allow me to touch anything related to fire.

I know that he's scared.

I am even more frightened. Even if he doesn't say it, I won't have the courage to be in the kitchen for a long time.

Most importantly, I can't be alone with Hilda.

At noon, Frances goes to the company. Hilda and I sit in the living room.

Of course, nanny is here, too.

I'm not scared when someone else is here.

"You did that, didn't you?"

I say with a positive tone.

Hilda probably pulled my dress towards the fire when I didn't notice.

She smiles at me and shrugs innocently.

"Frances believed that I didn't do it. Do you think there's any point in having this conversation with me now?"

Although I hate her and think she did it, I have no proof. No matter what I say, no one will believe me.

Sitting on the sofa for a while, I find it's half past one.

Although the place where Violet and I will meet is close, I would rather go out early since I really don't want to stay with Hilda.

On the way, I feel a burning sensation in my wrist.
