Chapter 207 Coming Home

Secret?

What kind of secret?

Just when I open my mouth to ask for more information, Nicole leaves.

Actually I can see that she has her own problems. But the way she uses my trust, makes me feel very
bad.

The competition is over, and tomorrow we are on our flight back home.

Frances and Whitney are in first class, while me and Nicole are in economy class.

Before we get back, Herman promises me that there will be plenty of chances to cooperate with DS.

Just as we get back to the company, Steven asks me to come to his office.

“I heard that Whitney almost hurt you with a flowerpot?” He asks straight forward after closing the door.

I laugh, and sit down in the chair opposite to his.

“Shouldn’t you be asking me if I won the price?”

“When I knew that Whitney almost hurt you, I guessed that she knew about you and Frances. Knowing
her, she would never let you win anything after finding out.”

Steven says calmly, his face showing no emotions.

“You know her well.” I purse my lips.

Steven’s face expression suddenly darkens, he looks very serious.



“I am worried about you. I think you should leave Frances. You have no idea what Whitney will do to
you if she gets furious.”

This...

Even if Steven doesn’t say, I know it well enough. But Frances doesn’t let me go, what can I do?

I give a bitter laugh, and tell Steven, “Now that I lost the competition, the million is also gone, I really
don’t have any other ideas on how to leave him.”

“Let me send you away, Jane, I know a way how Frances can never find you again.”

Steven stands up and suddenly holds my hand.

I lower my eyes, and feel that this is wrong, so I try to take my hand back.

But his words make me feel some hope.

I know, with his abilities, he can do that. But why do I feel so reluctant?

I have thought about leaving Frances so many times, and now that it was really time, I suddenly feel
pain in my heart.

“I will consider it.”

I force a smile for Steven, stand up and leave his office.

In the elevator, I get a phone call from Frances.

I never dare not to answer his calls.

“When are you coming back?”



Actually, I don’t wanna go back. I don’t know how to face him, and I don’t know how to hide from
Whitney. Sooner or later she will find out where we live. What should I do then?

“After work.” I say.

“Come home right now.”

What’s wrong with him, it’s only 3 pm now, I am only an employee, how can I leave this early?

But of course, I don’t dare to say this out loud.

I want to say something, but then I hear noise in the phone, and I remember that I am in the elevator,
so I start to move my phone away, and say, “Hello? What did you say? I am in the elevator, the
connection is bad. Hello? Frances, are you still there? Hello, hello hello?”

Then I quickly hang up, and exit the elevator, just to receive a text message from him.

“Come home right now.”

I really cannot go home now, so all I can do is to pretend I don’t see the message, and turn off my
phone.

After work, I rush home feeling uneasy.

When I arrive, I notice that Frances isn’t even at home.

Didn’t he ask me to come back? Where is he?

Then I suddenly remember running into him while he was looking at some photographs, should I use
this chance to go and check on them?
