In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 469

"Yes."

I reply indifferently.

"Get in the car. It's not easy to get a taxi here. Let me give you a ride."

He opens the car door and smiles at me.

I don't want to take his ride, but there really is no other car.

I don't want Frances to wait for too long, so after pondering for a while, I get in the car anyway.

There is a special pleasant smell in Noah's car.

The fragrance is very unique, but it smells good. Normally, men don't wear perfume. I guess it is probably from Noah's fiancée, so I don't care too much about it.

Being alone with him is indeed awkward.

In order to change this strange atmosphere, I begin to chat with him about his fiancée.

"Where is your fiancée?"

"At home." He says in short, concentrating on driving.

"She fell down the other day. Is everything alright?"

As a mother, I can't help but care about the baby.

Noah glances at me and says casually, "We lost the baby."

Lost the baby?

The loss of the baby is a huge blow to a woman, but Noah says it so casually.

The man suddenly appears so unfamiliar to me.

Noah used to be gentle, considerate, kind and sincere. He was nothing like this indifferent man in front of me.

What exactly has he experienced to make him become like this?

Is it because of me?

I feel a little distressed and dizzy.

I guess it's because I didn't sleep well last night, so I lean back and close my eyes to take a nap.

However, strange enough, soon I begin to feel exhausted.

"Jane, Jane?"

Noah calls my name with a soft voice.

Noah turns around and says to me in a gentle way, "Here you are. You can leave now. I have to go since I have other things to do."

His expression is as gentle as usual, making me even more puzzled.

What exactly was going on? I did see his sinister face just now. I thought he had drugged me and wanted to do something to me, but it seems that nothing has happened.

I stare at Noah in confusion and nervously say, "What's wrong with me? What happened?"

"You fell asleep as soon as you got in the car. You must be very tired," He says with a faint smile.

So what has happened was just a dream?

I can't tell.

"Thank you then."

I say so, open the door, and get out of the car.

Apart from the tiredness, I don't feel anything unusual about my body.

Perhaps, it was really a dream.

I keep thinking that way.

Until three days later.
