No One But You novel Chapter 20

Then I looked him in the face.

He paused.

His expression was strange, with a little guilty.

Why was he guilty?

I had already concluded that it had nothing to do with Calvin, but Secretary Frank's expression really made me suspicious.

He quickly adjusted, “Miss Josephine, don't think nonsense. Calvin is not the person."

"You know Calvin, too?"

"He's somebody. How could I not know him?" Secretary Frank didn’t want to fight but threw me a mobile phone, “Buy things on internet when you are bored. The money is enough for you.”

Secretary Frank left. Before he left, he told Bennett and Stella to watch me closely and not let me make trouble again.

After he left, I threw away the cell phone he had left me.

He was supposed to know what's happened these days.

I returned the clothes bought for me by Calvin and asked him for money, and extorted Elena.

In his heart, I was a woman who loved money very much.

They money I asked them was deserved by me.

But I didn't want that man's money. He wanted it for my body, my child, and I won't let him succeed.

In the next morning, I woke up and heard someone talking downstairs. I leaned out of the window and saw some food coming.

Usually Bennett go out to buy food, and Stella did housework at home, but both of them did not go out today.

Secretary Frank told them to watch me closely last night. It seemed that they were not going to go out today, nor would they let me go out.

I made an appointment with the doctor yesterday for today's operation, so I must go out.

I held the wall step by step to move downstairs. Stella and Bennett came to help me when they saw me, “Miss Josephine, why do you go downstairs? If you want something, we'll send it to you."

Well, it looked like I was being held prisoner.

I sat closest to the gate, wondering how I was going to slip out of here.

If it wasn't for my bad legs, they wouldn't have been able to run after me.

Bennett handed me a glass of water. When I took it, I made a deliberate hand shake, and then the water all poured on my leg.

The water was hot, but not that hot.

I screamed, "Oh, it hurts!"

Because it had just poured into my wound on the top of the gauze. Bennett did not know my wound was like, so they panicked.

"Miss Josephine, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I did not hold it tightly!" Bennett was taking cry sound, “Miss Josephine, are you all right?"

"It's killing me. Take the medicine chest!" I screamed.

Bennett hurried upstairs.

I looked at the stunned Stella, “Go take clothes for me. Do you want me wear the wet clothes?"

Stella came to her senses, and hurriedly ran upstairs.

I would run now!

I gritted my teeth, got up from the sofa, walked to the door, picked up the sneakers from the shoe rack and ran out without putting them on.

Driver Dixon was not at the door. I didn't need a car because I was grounded.

I slipped from the path. Not long before I heard Stella and Bennett shouting.

I knew the neighborhood better than they did, and I had already made several turns to explore all the exits.

I got on the taxi at a remote exit that I had hailed it beforehand.

The car took me directly to the hospital. I looked at my watch and the appointment with the doctor was 9:30. It was only 9 o'clock. I can catch up with that.

It was easy to defeat them.

I laid my hand upon my belly, and was filled with sorrow at the thought that I was soon to kill a living being.
