Chapter 2271
Time passed by slowly as everyone anticipated the arrival of Danrique. His appearance
seemed like the only way to ensure that an ice-sealed Xendale would be awakened.

Meanwhile, Francesca was extremely weak after going through our rough days. She lay on
the bed daily, only drinking water to survive.
Sam brought her worms, rats and other food options. Yet, Francesca couldn't swallow
anything at all.
On this day, she heard a familiar howling outside. It was then she knew Layla had arrived.
Francesca wanted to howl in return, but she had difficulty doing so as her throat was dry
and hoarse. Left with no choice, she asked Sam to look for Layla, for she was worried that
Layla would come to her rescue impulsively.
Mrs. President has set up traps everywhere here. If Layla rushes in, she will definitely fall
into her trap. Unless Mrs. President releases me on her own accord, there's no way
someone can rescue me.

Francesca after a long moment. She stressed, “Something must have happened to
Francesca. I need to go rescue her now.”
Sloan immediately trailed behind her. “I'm going with you!”
“Sloan, Gordon is not here yet. Why don't we wait and ask for his opinion?” His
subordinate advised, “I don't think a small group of us has the ability to save Francesca by
rushing in without any preparation.”
Sloan pushed his subordinate away as he followed behind Layla. “No. We can't just sit
back and do nothing!”
Without a choice, all the subordinates followed suit on their quest to save Francesca.
The group sneaked into the prison through the side door. As Layla was an agile woman,
she had no problem doing so.
Sloan quickly followed her. His watch vibrated when he was about to climb through the
window. Noticing that it was a call from Gordon, Sloan wanted to pick up when the signal
cut off.
A jail like the one they were heading into would cut off all communication signals, so there
was no way for Sloan to talk to Gordon now. Sloan decided to put this matter behind him
first. For now, the most important thing was to save Francesca.
The group climbed through the wall successfully under Layla's lead. Then, they followed
the GPS on Sam's body to the cell holding Francesca.
Even with the GPS guidance, the jail was massive and had many winding roads, so the
group needed time to figure out where Francesca was held at.
Conversely, Gordon was rushing over to their meetup point with his subordinates. As
Sloan's communication signal was cut off, no one picked up Gordon's call.
He then tried to call Sloan's subordinates, but the result was the same. He couldn't get
hold of them too. It dawned on him that the group had already gone ahead and broken
into the jail.
Mylo was worried. “Gordon, will anything happen to them? Sloan had only two
subordinates with him. Together with Layla, there are only four of them. They are prey
walking into a trap right now!”
“That brat is too reckless.” Gordon furrowed his brows. “We have no choice now. We got to
save them.”

“Noted.”
In the castle, Monica heard that Sloan and Layla were on their way to save Francesca. She
quickly rushed to William to report this matter to him, asking agitatedly, “Your Highness,
should we lend them a helping hand?”
“It would end badly if we help them now,” Hazel explained rationally, “I know Mrs.
President. She must have set traps everywhere in the jail when she leaked the news to the
public to lure Mr. Lindberg's people to her.”
“But we can't let them die just like that!” Monica looked at William anxiously as she
awaited his response.
Even though she was selfish, especially with matters concerning William's safety, Monica
still wanted to help the group out under such circumstances. After all, Francesca had gone
all out to help them when they were at their lowest points.
Hazel peered at William too. She, too, wanted to know what his decision was.
After a while, William finally said, “There's nothing we can do even if we show up now...”
Monica didn't dare to speak as mixed emotions swirled within her.
I thought William liked Francesca. Isn't he willing to do anything for her? Why...
