In My Desperate Time

Chapter 316: A Misunderstanding



I don't want to go to their room. However, I can’t help but follow her because Mindy drags me up to the eighth floor.
When we arrive at room 828, we are surprised to find that the door is half open.
"Look! They couldn’t wait to do it and even forgot to close the door." Mindy says angrily and directly pushes the door.
I want to stop her, but it's too late.
So we just walk into the room. And we see Frances and the woman's shocked faces as soon as we enter.
To our embarrassment, there is someone else in the room.
It's a man. They are sitting at a table. There were some documents on it. It seems that they are discussing something.
Mindy and I stand there awkwardly, wondering what to say.
"Why are you here?"
Frances is the first that speaks.
He frowns and walks towards me.
"I... I..."
I stutter for a while and fail to utter a complete sentence. I wish I can dig a hole on the floor and hide into it.
"What are you doing?"
Mindy is speechless. And she finally asks.
"Discussing the details of the script. What else can we do? What about you guys? What are you doing here?"
The man stands up and says. Apparently, he is annoyed.
Discussing the script?
As I hear the man's voice, I suddenly recognize the woman that entered the hotel with Frances.
It's Elin.

Frances had a scandal with her before.
But Whitney also told me that Elin is Frances’ younger sister, half-sister.
Therefore, the scandal is definitely false.
"You guys come to the hotel to discuss the script? Do you think I will buy it?"
Mindy doesn't know the relationship between Frances and Elin, so naturally she doesn't believe what the man said.
"I live here. If they don't come here, should I go find them?" The man says.
I can tell his arrogance from the way he speaks.
In case that Mindy gets trouble, I quickly pull her aside and say, "The woman is Elin Smith. She's an actress that got famous this
year. Whitney told me before that she is Frances’ half-sister."
Mindy is stupefied. She hasn't recovered from the shock.
After a few seconds, she finally collects herself. She turns around and says bitterly, "Why don't you tell me earlier? Why do you
wait until I embarrass myself?"
I smile and say, "I wish I can tell you earlier too, but it just come to my mind."
Mindy glares at me fiercely, her eyes filled with regret.
Frances walks to me and says in a deep voice, "You haven't told me why you came here yet."
I don't dare to look at him, so I lower my head and don't reply.
What can I say? Can I tell him that I'm here to catch adultery?
It will be too embarrassing.
I don't know how to respond, so I pause.
"Nothing. We just entered the wrong room. You can continue now."
As I finish, I quickly pull Mindy and run out of the room with her.

Perhaps Mindy is really ashamed of what happened. She runs faster than me. I try really hard to catch up with her.
We don't dare to stay at the hotel and just go back to our homes directly.
When I arrive at home, I take the child to my room upstairs.
However, Earl has slept for a long time. It has been four or five hours, and he has no sign of waking up.
It’s weird. He usually gets hungry in two or three hours and need to eat.
I walk to him doubtfully and pat him on the shoulder.
As I stand by his side, I see that his face is quite red.
I reach out to touch his face and find it hot.
The child has got a fever!
