Chapter 1899 He Knows


    William was shocked by Danrique’s words.


    Being born into the royalty, everyone around me had always told me to focus on benefits and the big picture and


    that my feelings were inconsequential.


    Putting aside friendships and romantic rtionships, even family members are stepping stones to a higher status.


    In my world, everything is for the sake of a higher status, including myself. I never had my own consciousness and


    freedom. All of my thoughts are based on obtaining more benefit for my family.


    Everyone around me are aligned and heading toward the same goal. Maybe that was why I was attracted to


    Francesca’s carefreeness.


    She was living my dream life and doing everything I wanted but couldn’t do. She was so bright. I thought not many


    could be like her in this world, living life however she wanted.


    Yet now I realized Danrique could do the same too. Francesca is unrestrained and untethered to anything, but


    Danrique carries the entire fate of the Lindberg family on his shoulders.


    Having the control of an extensive corporation at the tips of Danrique’s fingers, even the slightest movement could


    bring about severe repercussions. There should be more restrains and ties around his neck than mine, but his


    beliefs of gaining freedom by standing at the peak were stunning to me.


    Soon, William recollected his thoughts and sighed, “I’m impressed that you have such thoughts, but the reality is


    cruel-”


    “That is just an excuse of the weak. The powerful have every control of their fates,” Danrique scoffed.


    “L, I know you’re powerful. So powerful that others fear you. You tore down every obstacle in your path when you


    were sixteen and became the authoritative figure of the Lindberg family. Not many others in this world have such


    strong capabilities.


    “However, the world is huge, and many others in this world are on par or even better than you. No matter how


    powerful you are, there’ll be something that you can’t control. Besides, staying by your side with the three major


    families joining hands to target you is dangerous.


    “Choosing to get married at this time is very risky. It isn’t just your status that’ll be affected, but even Ms. Cece will


    be implicated.”


    William continued to advise, “I suggest you reconsider your decision. Even if you truly want to marry her, you still


    have to settle the problems at hand first and wait for the situation to stabilize.”


    “You can’t wait in matters rted to your feelings. You’ll have to grasp onto them tightly if you like them.”


    Danrique didn’t agree with William’s point of view and was even slightly displeased by it.


    “When a man is at the top of the world, he must possess the ability to retain that control. I don’t think my marriage


    will affect my power or status, but I can solve them if they do.


    “As for Cece’s safety, I’m sure I can protect my own woman just fine. You don’t have to worry about that.”


    Hisst sentence was dripping with a chilling sense of threat.


    Robin, who was standing on the side, shuddered at the warning and turned to William worriedly.


    William was taken aback briefly before smiling bitterly. “All right then, I guess I crossed a line.”


    “Rest well.”


    Danrique ced his wine ss down and got up to leave. He paused as he remembered something when he


    reached the door. Looking over his shoulder, he said, “Xendale is very cold, so remember to shut your window


    tight.”


    “Yes, thank you for your reminder, Mr. Lindberg.”


    Robin bowed almost ny degrees downward as he thanked Danrique profusely, but sweat had dotted his entire


    forehead.


    Danrique cast onest nce at William before striding out of the room.


    Robin stood by the door, watching Danrique go down the hallway to his room, then quickly retracted his gaze and


    shut the door urgently. “Your Highness, do you think Mr. Lindberg could’ve known?” Robin asked nervously.


    William didn’t respond. Instead, he picked up his phone to give Francesca a call.


    “Francesca.”


    “Did Danrique trouble you?”


    “No, he left after we exchanged a few conversations.”


    “That’s good.”


    “Don’t worry and rest well, but let’s not move around too much these two days. We don’t want to court his anger.”


    “Got it.”qContent rights by N?velDr//ama.Org.
