Chapter 2324


    Watching as the cars drove away, Francesca finally breathed a sigh of relief. She closed the door to the


    courtyard and went back into the house.


    “They''ve all left?” Anthony asked urgently.


    “Yes.” As Francesca gazed at the triplets on the bed, her expression dimmed. They''re only three


    months old and not in perfect health at that. Who''s going to care for them now that I''m leaving?


    “Don''t tell me you agreed?” Anthony eyed her with a frown.


    “I didn''t want to do so, but I can''t do nothing and let him die either. After all, he''s the kids'' father.”


    Francesca heaved a sigh.


    “Well, that''s true.” Anthony understood that much. Subsequently, he queried, “But what about the kids


    while you''re gone? Why don''t you have them transport Danrique over for treatment?”


    “No, it''ll cause even greater trouble to transport him here. All those enemies of his will be attracted


    here,” Francesca declined resolutely.


    “That makes sense.” Anthony bobbed his head in agreement.


    Francesca stared at the triplets with reluctance written all over her face. “I''ll go over for a look and try to


    come back as soon as possible. The kids aren''t feeding on breast milk anyway, so you''ll have no


    problems taking care of them.”


    “I''ll go with...” Anthony wanted to insist on going with her as he did in the past, but he changed his tune


    at the thought of the triplets. “All right, then. I''ve got to stay and take care of the kids.”


    Francesca kissed each of the triplets tenderly. “Yeah. Fortunately, they''re already fine now. I''ll leave


    some basic medicine at home. If one of them catches a cold, runs a fever, has a stomachache, or the


    like, just feed her the medicine. Call me if it''s something serious. I''ll return immediately.”


    In response, Anthony nodded. “Got it. Since you''ve decided to go, make it fast. I''ll be here, so don''t


    worry.”


    “Okay.” After packing her medical kit and needle pouch, Francesca hugged each triplet. “I''m leaving.


    Things here will be on you.”


    “Rest easy.” Looking at her worriedly, Anthony warned, “Don''t stir up trouble while you''re there, and


    come back quickly after treating the man.”


    “I will.” Francesca patted him on the shoulder before leaving in a hurry.


    “Wait a moment, Fran!” Kimberley hurried out and handed her a lunch box. “You didn''t have dinner, and


    it''ll take two hours down the mountain. Don''t go hungry.”


    “Thank you, Mdm. Parker!”


    Francesca hugged her before leaving quickly, but she spotted Sean by the roadside no sooner had she


    gone a kilometer away from the courtyard. Beside the man was an empty car.


    It was evident that everyone else had gone down the mountain, and Sean was the only one there


    waiting for her.

    “It isn''t easy to go down the mountain, so I waited here for you. There isn''t anything else to it.”


    Swinging open the car door, Sean deferentially ushered her into the car.


    Even after Francesca had gotten into the car, her eyes still drifted to the wooden loft behind her through


    the rearview mirror. Worry lingered within her.


    Seeing through her, Sean admitted, “I''ve arranged for Mylo and the others to protect the ce in


    secret, so don''t worry. While you''re treating Mr. Lindberg, nothing will happen to Mr. Quill and the kids.”


    “You know about the kids?” Francesca''s eyes went wide in shock.


    “While Mr. Lindberg had no idea about your pregnancy, we all knew about it. Speaking of that, I should


    apologize to you.” Sean appeared to be exceedingly guilty.


    “There''s no need to apologize. It''s good to keep him in the dark, lest he fights me for the kids,”


    Francesca replied cidly.


    Following that, Sean murmured apologetically, “It must have been difficult for you throughout the past


    year. In truth, I wanted to tell Mr. Lindberg about it countless times, but Lindberg Corporation was shaky


    as long as the president remained in power. If Mr. Lindberg had a weakness, he''d easily fall into traps.


    For that reason, after much consideration, I decided to wait until Lindberg Corporation is in a stable


    condition before doing so. But I never expected this sudden turn...”


    At that point, he stopped short and didn''t continue speaking further.


    “You made the right call,” Francesca announced in admiration. Then, shemented, “If he''d known I


    was pregnant, he wouldn''t have easily let me leave. I''d have suffered more had I stayed at the Lindberg


    residence, and his days wouldn''t have been easy either.”


    “That was also what I thought back then, so I didn''t say anything. I was worried that you''d be mad at


    me.” Sean regarded her weakly.
