In My Desperate Time

Chapter 529: Don't Hurt Him

Terence?

Hilda's husband, Terence?

Isn't he dead?

Why will he be here?

I don't believe it.

I shake my head and say to him, "Terence is dead. You can't be him."

"Who tells you I am dead? Frances?" He says to me.

Does he know about Frances?

Does he really know Frances? Or has he checked up on us?

I don't know.

He looks down, and he suddenly begins to take off his clothes.

That's why I'm scared.

As we, a man and a woman, are alone in the room, what does he want to do?

I stand up in horror and take two steps back.

"With this, do you believe me?" He says indifferently.

I look at him out of curiosity.

What I see is a scar on his chest.

The scar is obviously a wound that heals from gunshot. Frances has told me that Terence saved him and was shot dead in the chest.

Is he really Terence?

However, how can a dead person be resurrected?

"Are you really ... Terence?"

I ask uncertainly.

He nods and says in a deep voice, "It's me. Hilda used to be my woman. But she plotted to kill me and took over my gang. Moreover, she is with Frances. I must get even with her!"

When he speaks of Hilda, he is so furious that he simply grits his teeth.

Anyone who is betrayed by his beloved will hate this ex-lover most.

Just like how Frances feels about me.

The hatred in his eyes is totally real. Therefore, I believe that he is Terence.

Although, it is a bit hard to accept this truth.

"May I ask, aren't you dead? Why are you still alive?"

His face turned gloomy and he says to me, "Back then, I was shot and was sent to a private clinic. That doctor was my good old friend. When he was trying to save me, he overheard Hilda call someone. Therefore, he realized that Hilda set the shooting trap. Her target was not Frances at all, but me."

"So, after rescuing me, he injected me with a drug to pretend that I am dead in order to trick Hilda. It's just that I am injected with such a drug when I am extremely weak, which leads to my poor coordination for a long time. Recently, I finally recover, but I hear that Hilda and Frances are getting married. So, I come without hesitation. If I don't punish that woman, I may let myself down. "

It seems that he is here to take revenge.

Then, why does he come to me?

"I can understand your hatred for Hilda, but why do you tell me about these things?" I ask suspiciously.

"Because we have a common enemy. Don't you hate Hilda and Frances and want them to pay the price?"

I do hate Hilda. But as for Frances, how can I hate him?

From Terence's tone, not only does he want to punish Hilda, he also intends to hurt Frances.

How can he do so?

"You still want to go after Frances? He's also a victim. He doesn't even know the true Hilda. Please don't hurt him!"

I beg him softly. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

To me, Frances is more important than my life. How can I let others hurt him?

He shakes his head and says to me in a deep voice, "Frances is my good friend who has gone through fire and water with me. I am well aware of his kindness for me. And I know that he is only kept in the dark by Hilda. I won't take his life, but he has slept with Hilda, so I won't let him go so easily."

After he says those words coldly, his gaze falls on me again.

"I suddenly remember that I have something important to tell you."
