Chapter 1953


    qEven from afar, Francesca could feel that his patience was running thin, and he was close to


    exploding with anger.

    For some reason, she felt an urge to go over to his side and help him.


    At that very moment, Danrique seemed to have sensed something and turned to look in Francesca''s


    direction.


    The woman turned away reflexively to avoid meeting his eyes.


    “Let''s go!”


    La dragged her toward the parking lot.


    Along the way, Francesca could feel that something was off. A short distance away, an array of soldiers


    were dispatched to block every single exit and entrance surreptitiously.


    There were also some bodyguards who were dressed in in outfits entering the castle and


    approaching the conference room that Danrique was in.


    “Wait. What is going on?” Francesca stopped in her tracks and asked anxiously, “Is Mr. Adams trying to


    threaten Danrique?”


    “Probably. Judging by the current situation, I''m afraid Danrique won''t be able to leave this ce if he


    doesn''t agree to Mr. Adams'' conditions. We have to leave right away to avoid getting into trouble,”


    La answered in a hushed voice.


    “But...”


    Knowing what Francesca was thinking, La dismissed her idea. “Francesca, listen to me. You''re not a


    savior. You''re too powerless to change anything.”


    Francesca lowered her eyes and knew what La said made sense. She''s right. We''re not in the


    jungle. I can''t do anything...


    La patted Francesca''s shoulder. “He''ll be fine. Profit is always the aim of power struggles. All the


    resources of Lindberg Corporation are now under Danrique''s control. No one would dare to touch him. I


    suppose they''re just threatening him to sign some kind of contract.”


    “But Danrique''s temper won''t allow him to give in. He''ll confront Mr. Adams and fight with him head-on.


    The battle is unavoidable.” Francesca seemed to have predicted what would happen afterward.


    La reminded in a serious manner, “So what if he does? It''s none of your business. If you stay, you


    would have to face such incidents at any time in the future. You would have to live a terrifying life where


    you''re always on tenterhooks. Would you be able to ept that?”


    Once again, Francesca fell silent.


    “That''s enough. Stop thinking about it. Let''s go.”


    La dragged Francesca away, and the two of them went to the parking lot. At that moment, a group of


    people was surrounding the wealthy woman who had an asthma attack.


    One of the noblemen questioned in irritation, “Where''s the doctor? How can the doctor not be around


    when something as serious as this had happened?”


    “We have no idea either. He went in with us just now, but he was gone when we came back out.”


    “This is outrageous! How is the hospital still operating?”


    “Um...”


    “Excuse me! Please make way! The doctor is here.” La immediately squeezed into the crowd with


    Francesca in tow.


    La patted Francesca''s shoulder. “He''ll be fine. Profit is always the aim of power struggles. All the


    resources of Lindberg Corporation are now under Danrique''s control. No one would dare to touch him. I


    suppose they''re just threatening him to sign some kind of contract.”


    Right away, the aristocrats made way for them to pass.


    Francesca performed emergency treatment on the woman without dy while the medical staff


    watched in total befuddlement. This isn''t our doctor.


    However, they knew they were at the presidential pce, and everyone around held prominent status.


    Even a mere subordinate might have an important identity.


    Assuming that Francesca was the family doctor of some wealthy family, they didn''t stop her from doing


    her job.


    The woman''s condition stabilized soon after Francesca treated her. At this point, everyone around


    acknowledged her skills and stopped doubting her.


    “The patient has consumed something she''s allergic to and thus triggered an asthma attack. Her


    condition is only temporarily stable, and she needs to be sent to the hospital right now! Hurry and carry


    her onto the ambnce,” urged Francesca.


    “Okay.” The medical staff lifted the stretcher and moved the woman onto the ambnce while


    Francesca and La took the opportunity and followed suit.


    The ambnce slowly departed, and Francesca looked out the window withplicated emotions


    surging within her.


    Am I really leaving? That''s what I''ve always dreamed of, but now that I really am leaving, I feel


    reluctant. I can''t stop thinking of Danrique.
