In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 583

Besides, I thought it was settled. How come there is a competition?

"Hasn't Mike decided to cooperate with Hilda? Why is she competing with you?"

I ask in puzzlement.

"That's because I saved Mike's life once. Therefore, I asked him to count me in on this great deal. However, he is still hung up on Hilda, so he decided to let us compete fairly."

"What if Mike chooses you and our plan falls apart? If the fuzz catches you during the transaction, you will be finished."

"And that way, Hilda will be fine," I speak of my worries.

Of course, I don't mention Frances will notify the FBI.

Or the police.

After all, I can't trust Linda 100%.

I'm more worried about Frances' safety.

"Don't worry. I'm prepared. I will finish Hilda there and then without risking my life. Besides, I don't have the cash to buy that many drugs. So, you don't need to worry about me at all."

Linda explains to me.

I am finally relieved. Before I can catch a break, Linda tells me another shocking piece of news.

"I told Mike I would bring my husband. He also agreed."

"Husband? You have a new husband?"

Jack died in my fridge, which I remember pretty well.
