Chapter 2304
The president did not sleep for the entire night. He sat in front of his computer, intending
to see how far the rumor would escalate. However, after he looked at the news statistic,
he nearly flew into a rage.
The rumor that he had created did not give any negative impact on Danrique. The
netizens and the media doubted it completely. Everyone commented he had to resort to
such a despicable and shameless way to slander Danrique as he could not find an excuse
to fight against him.
Now, every news about Danrique would always be followed by a piece of news
admonishing the president.
The president was furious. He slumped back into his chair and tried to calm himself down.
All the public opinions were in favor of Danrique. He couldn't find a way to outsmart
Danrique in such a short time. He realized that the only way to stop the public discussions
was by ending Danrique's life.
After all, those who supported Danrique were doing it only because he was still alive,

As soon as the president thought about it, he instructed his men to assassinate Danrique.
His subordinate reminded him hastily, “Mr. President, Danrique made such a huge
commotion because he wanted to inform everyone that he was currently at home. If
something were to happen to him at this time, everyone would know that it was you who
did it.”
The president was anxious to hear it. “I can't do anything at all. Are you saying that I
should sit back and do nothing? It wasn't easy for me to gain the upper hand. I can't let
him win against me.”
“Public opinion is like a roller coaster. It's hard to control because it changes every time.”
The subordinate sighed. “The comments did not just come from Erihal. They came from all
over the world. It's not easy for us to control them.”
“Stop the nonsense. You need to come out with an idea.” The president was distressed.
“I'm afraid there's nothing else to do other than make peace for the time being. If we
continue to fight against him, it won't do us any good. He's merely a businessman, and
you're the president. Your reputation is much more important than his...”
“I can't accept it. I've nearly won. Why should I give up so soon?” The president refused to
admit defeat. “He's supposed to die in M Nation, but he came back alive. What a stroke of
luck!”
“You're right. Even though the entire chemical plant exploded, he could still escape death.
I think it's unbelievable as well. But now that he has come back alive, it means his time is
not up. We've been caught off guard by the continuous retaliation. If we continue to fight,
we won't gain any benefit from it.”
The president was still not willing to back down. “Riz Corporation has already affirmed
their stand not to collaborate with him anymore. It means I still have a huge chance. If we
don't kill him now, I'm afraid we won't have any chance in the future.”
“To be honest, we don't have any chance now. If you still care about your reputation, you
have to be careful! Otherwise, you might not be able to become the president anymore.”
After thinking it through, the president said angrily, “Then, let's wait for him to ask for
reconciliation. When that time comes, he will have to give me thirty percent of the shares

“I'm afraid that will be difficult.”
Meanwhile, in Lindberg Castle, William persuaded earnestly, “L, listen to me. Now that
things have come this far, a truce is the best option.”
Sean was not fond of William from the start. However, when he heard William's words, he
admired his bravery. He had the same thought as well, but he did not dare to voice it out.
Danrique did not say anything. He merely played with the ring that Francesca left.
He had arrived just in time before William and the others left.
Norah was very excited to see him. Even the other maids were wiping their tears.
William had quickly stopped the private jet from leaving for Danontand and gone to find
Danrique with Hazel.
Sean only allowed William to enter the study room by himself after a long time.
Upon seeing that Danrique was alive and unharmed, William heaved a sigh of relief. That
was the time when he had given Danrique the advice.
However, Danrique did not give any response for a few minutes. The atmosphere was
tense.
Sean cleared his throat. He tried to ease the tension by saying, “Actually, the president
has asked for a reconciliation, but Mr. Lindberg didn't agree to it.”
