In My Desperate Time

I think I may have personally pushed myself into the abyss as Steven Song said.
But I have no way, my heart is made of flesh, and I can’t be so ruthless.
Steven Song has come downstairs and helps me take my mother to the hospital.
Even though the fever has reached 40 degrees, my mother still reminds me to help my brother.
Frank Noyes hides at home. He doesn’t go to work, and my father takes care of his meals and life.
As soon as he sees me, Frank Noyes pounces on me as if he is grasping a life-saving straw.
“Sister, you must help me. If you don't help me, I will die! I don't want to go to jail, I don't want to go to jail!”
“Tell me what happened. Do you work at the company of Frances Louis?”
Frank Noyes nods and says, “I work for Frances Louis. Judy Wilson is the leader of our group. She is the one who gives me the
hint to leak the plan to Bart Company.”
“Do you have any proof?”
Frank Noyes shakes his head.
I sneer, “Things like this, even if you have proof, it may not be able to keep you safe, let alone you don’t have evidence. Who will
believe you?”
But I always have a feeling that there is something wrong with it. It feels like Frances Louis has dug a hole for me.
That night, he said that I would come to see him sooner or later. Was it at that time that he was aware of the it and knew the
relationship between Frank Noyes and me?
But even if I know it is a trap, I could only jump down.
“The plan I leaked doesn’t do much damage to the company at all, but now they're biting me in there and they're going to send
me to the jail. I know there is something between you and Frances Louis, and you can certainly help me.”
“Jane, you must help your brother. He is the only son of nine generations of our family. You can’t let anything happen to him. This
family depends on you.” My father backs him up, which makes want to laugh.

Or actually, I want to cry.
If this has not happened, I would not have known that I am so important to the family.
But for the remaining use value, I am afraid they have forgotten that I am their daughter.
Fighting back my tears, I say quietly to Frank Noyes, “I want you to promise that after this, you will get out of my sight with mom
and dad. As a sister, I will try to find a job for you in our hometown, the salary is enough to support you. And you, don't disturb
my life anymore.”
“Okay! No problem! We promise!”
My father and Frank Noyes agree to my request without thinking.
I taped everything they said, just in case they would go back on their words.
After telling them my mother is in the hospital, I go back to Steven Song’s house and change into a sexy red dress.
Steven Song keeps looking at me without speaking. When I go to the door, he finally speaks up.
“Jane Noyes, this is so weird. With a company as big as Louis Group, they could have handled your brother's business in
private. Perhaps this is a trap set by Frances Louis for you to jump into. If you go, you really can't go back. I can find a way to
help you.”
“Thank you, Steven Song. I will always remember your words today.”
I smile at Steven Song and walk firmly out the door.
If this is a trap set by Frances Louis, there is no way for me to go back. I can’ hide from him for the rest of my life. I'm sure that
Steven Song can help me with this, but I have owed him too much and I don't want to get him involved anymore.
The night of Virginia is really beautiful.
I walk along the street of bright lights to the door of Frances Louis’s house.
“Frances Louis, open the door.” I stand outside the door and send a message to Frances Louis.
Half a minute later, the door opens and Frances Louis stands calmly in front of me.

His long slender arm reaches out and pulls me in. I looked down at his hands. They are red and the smell of blood assaults me.
