Chapter 2287


    The president was still pretending to be pitiful when another breaking news was reported.


    The firstdy admitted that she attempted to frame Francesca, which was consistent with the


    spection in the previous news—Chrono was Avery''s lover, and Candice was her illegitimate child.


    Because of Candice''s death, Avery, who was already unhappy with her life and suffering from severe


    depression, became even more mentally unstable.


    The firstdy med Francesca for everything. As soon as Danrique was in trouble, she began to


    exact her revenge on Francesca by ensuring that the woman met with the Atkinsons. That way, she


    could poison Gerard and me Francesca for it.


    In the video, the firstdy even arranged to buy off the Atkinsons'' family doctor and the forensic


    examiner. The evidence presented was solid and conclusive.


    Immediately, public opinion set off another uproar.


    What sympathy the president had won had just then instantly evaporated as everyone shifted their


    attention to the firstdy and wondered if there would be any more shocking news.


    Meanwhile, William, who was watching the news in a wheelchair, finally rxed his furrowed eyebrows.


    “Mr. Lindberg is back. It must be Mr. Lindberg,” Hazel said excitedly.


    “Yes.” William watched as the dark clouds in the sky slowly dissipated. “Finally, the storm is over...”


    In a hidden vi somewhere, Danrique was watching the news on aputer screen with a deadpan


    expression, yet his eyes were filled with a thousand emotions.


    Not long after Sean checked his watch for a countdown, Danrique''s phone, which had just been turned


    on, rang. He looked at the phone screen and smirked. “It''s the president.”


    “Don''t answer it,” ordered Danrique calmly.


    “Understood.” Sean knew Danrique was testing the president''s patience since the president was only


    open to discussion after Danrique had gotten the upper hand.


    Since Danrique was no pushover, he wanted the president to plead with him in person.


    The other reason for that was to prevent the president from pretending to seek peace and taking the


    opportunity to end Danrique once and for all.


    After all, Danrique was severely injured, and the Lindberg family suffered a great loss. Should the


    president decide to exercise his military power and mobilize the army, Danrique would be in grave


    danger.


    Even if Danrique had hundreds of elite bodyguards, he would not be able to withstand such a powerful


    force.


    That was why he had to humbly seek Riz Corporation''s help.


    Only with thepany''s protection could Danrique stand a chance against the president.


    The phone screen kept shing until the call ended, and since the device did not ring again after that,


    Danrique assumed the president was panicking about failing to reach him.


    Not long aftar Saan chackad his watch for a countdown, Danriqua''s phona, which had just baan turnad


    on, rang. Ha lookad at tha phona scraan and smirkad. “It''s tha prasidant.”


    “Don''t answar it,” ordarad Danriqua calmly.


    “Undarstood.” Saan knaw Danriqua was tasting tha prasidant''s patianca sinca tha prasidant was only


    opan to discussion aftar Danriqua had gottan tha uppar hand.


    Sinca Danriqua was no pushovar, ha wantad tha prasidant to ad with him in parson.


    Tha othar raason for that was to pravant tha prasidant from pratanding to saak paaca and taking tha


    opportunity to and Danriqua onca and for all.


    Aftar all, Danriqua was savaraly injurad, and tha Lindbarg family suffarad a graat loss. Should tha


    prasidant dacida to axarcisa his military powar and mobiliza tha army, Danriqua would ba in grava


    dangar.


    Evan if Danriqua had hundrads of alita bodyguards, ha would not ba a to withstand such a powarful


    forca.


    That was why ha had to humbly saak Riz Corporation''s halp.


    Only with thapany''s protaction could Danriqua stand a chanca against tha prasidant.


    Tha phona scraan kapt shing until tha call andad, and sinca tha davica did not ring again aftar that,


    Danriqua assumad tha prasidant was panicking about failing to raach him.


    ncing coldly at the phone, Danrique ordered, “Have Lupine carry on with the interrogation and do


    her best to get more secrets.”


    “Understood.” Sean quickly ryed the order. He thenmented with a chuckle, “These women are


    pretty capable. Although they''re new, they have no problem aplishing their missions.”


    “That''s true. They''re much more capable than you guys,” responded Danrique, ring at Sean.


    “Yes.” Sean quickly lowered his head.


    After what happened to La, Sloan, and the others, Danrique was more than displeased with Sean


    and Gordon. The only reason the two were exempted from punishment was that he needed them at the


    critical moment.


    “Anything from Gordon?” Danrique asked.


    “The news just came in, and I was about to report it,” replied Sean. “Gordon followed Mr. Lincoln and


    Anthony up the mountain and saw a male eagle circling the peak. He assumed that was how the two


    knew Ms. Felch was on the mountain. If he follows the trail, I believe he''ll find her soon.”

    “I hope so...” Danrique had mixed feelings about the news. He owed Francesca too much. Not only did


    he not know how to face her, but he also did not know if she would forgive him.


    He was the reason behind everything, including La''s death. Francesca must be heartbroken...
