qInitially, Francesca took Layla's advice to heart and planned to call Danrique, but before
she could initiate the conversation, it seemed he had given up on her.
Francesca could not help but feel dejected and hated herself for being vulnerable.
She kept reminding herself not to think of Danrique anymore. It's time to cut ties with that
man. I don't want to have anything to do with him anymore!
“Sloan, why does Ms. Felch look so calm? Is she not mad?” a bodyguard asked out of
curiosity.
He was observing Francesca from the rear-view mirror while waiting in a car nearby.
“Ms. Felch is not an expressive person,” Sloan said with a wry smile. “She's used to
putting up a tough front.”
“What should we do now? Should we retreat?” the bodyguard asked.
“Let's retreat and wait for those two to appear!”
“All right. Got it!”
After leaving the area with the bodyguard, Sloan called Sean. The call connected within
seconds. “Hey!”
“Sean, we just met Ms. Felch. We're retreating now.”
“Hide properly. Show yourself again when Chrono and his men appear.” Sean ordered. “By
the way, did you plant the listening devices properly? Ms. Felch didn't notice anything
amiss, right?”
“I planted the devices in Anthony's car and shoes. I also managed to track his phone.
Everything should be fine,” Sloan said. “But I dare not put those things around Ms. Felch.”
“Anthony? Who's that?” Sean froze for a bit, but the name soon rang a bell. “Her ex-
boyfriend?”
“Yes. That's him,” Sloan answered. “He drives Ms. Felch to everywhere she wants to go,
and I also think they're staying together. They're as close as a family.”
Sloan's observation instantly rendered Sean speechless.
Sean gradually glanced at Danrique and noticed his expression had turned grim. Before
this, there was Prince William, and now, someone named Anthony emerged. Not only does
he act as her driver, but they're also living together. I didn't expect Francesca to be such a
player!
Sloan continued, “I wonder if they're siblings—”
“Let's just go with the plan,” Sean interrupted and diverted Sloan's attention as he was
afraid the latter might say something that would further agitate Danrique.
“Chrono and his men dared not appear because you guys were protecting Ms. Felch in
secret. Now that you're in hiding, I'm sure they'll show up soon. Once you have taken
them down, bring Ms. Felch back to Xendale.”
“Got it!”
After ending the call, Sean cautiously turned his attention to Danrique. “Calm down, Mr.
Lindberg. I think it's all just a misunderstanding...”
“Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding?” Danrique scoffed. “You mean her
relationship with William is a misunderstanding? Or do you mean her relationship with
Anthony?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSean was at a loss for words. “Um... I just think that Ms. Felch is not that kind of person...”
“She spends time with a man in the middle of the night and lives with her ex-boyfriend. So
tell me, what kind of person she is then?” Danrique could not contain his anger anymore.
“That ungrateful wretch! She's gonna get it from me when I see her!”
Sean gasped and decided to keep mum as he had no idea how to comfort Danrique.
“If I were not caught up with the mess here, I would have flown there personally to teach
her a lesson.”
Danrique was like a cat on a hot tin roof. How he wished he could fly over to S Nation to
meet Francesca.
“Now is not the time to leave, Mr. Lindberg. You have to focus on bringing Frank and the
three great families down!”
Sean continued to assure Danrique, “Gordon had departed for S Nation an hour ago. Once
he gets rid of Chrono and his men, he'll bring Ms. Felch home.”
“Tell Gordon to bring her back by all means!” Danrique ordered assertively.
“Yes, sir!” Sean immediately passed the message to Gordon.
