Chapter 2054


    Chapter 2054 Arrangement


    “We’re just friends. Why would he sacrifice me?” Francesca brushed her off. “Ms. La, you’re


    overthinking. However, I’ll listen to you and keep a distance from him.”


    “That’s good, then.” La nodded and urged, “From tomorrow onward, bring Anthony along when you


    give William treatment. Just let him follow you, and he can be just your helper. As long as there’s


    someone else there, others will have nothing to say.”


    “Okay. I understand.” Francesca agreed to it in a heartbeat.


    “Also, talk it out with Danrique. Even if you want to break up with him, talk it out, and you guys can go


    your separate ways peacefully. If you want to get back together with him, then reconcile with him,


    okay? You’re going to strain the rtionship if you keep giving him the cold shoulder. He could be a


    scary man to deal with if he were to fight back. Hence, no matter what you decide to do, just patch


    things up so that there won’t be trouble in the future,” La reminded again.


    “All right.” Francesca pouted because she felt aggrieved. “If I knew, I shouldn’t have gotten into a


    rtionship. Before this, I could do whatever I wanted. Now, I have to watch what I do. Uh, this is really


    suffocating.”


    “Well, you don’t have a choice because your fiancé is Danrique Lindberg.” Laughed. “However,


    even without him, it’s about time you learn to be more mature. After all, you’re representing the


    orphanage. Your words and actions will have an effect on the kids.”


    “I’ve actually been thinking about that…” Francesca then asked, “Is it possible to transfer the


    orphanage to you guys? I’ll pull out, but I’ll still give you guys money every year. That way, the


    orphanage won’t be affected if I get into trouble.”


    “You’ll forever be connected to us. Transferring the ownership to us won’t make a difference.” La


    ruffled Francesca’s hair and said, “You’ll get worried if it gets transferred to an outsider, right?


    Therefore, you have to stay tough and move on.”


    “All right, then. I’ll go upstairs now,” Francesca answered.

    “Okay.” La’s expression turned solemn as she watched her leave.


    Right then, Lincoln knocked on the door and entered the room. “So? Did you tell her about it?”


    “I couldn’t…” La heaved a sigh and said, “I’ve watched her grow up all these years, and I’ve already


    considered her my daughter. I couldn’t bear to tell her I’m leaving.”


    “You don’t have a choice, do you?” Lincoln felt rather sad as well. “Things aren’t looking good now, so


    we have no choice but to leave.”


    “I don’t get it. We’ve already been under the radar for so many years. How did we get exposed again?”


    La was baffled. “Could it be that someone had exposed us on purpose?”


    “I’ve thought about that possibility as well.” Lincoln frowned. “Could it be Chrono?”


    “It’s possible.” La was angered. “If not him, who else would have a reason to do so?”


    Lincoln analyzed and uttered, “The thing is that Riz Corporation’s intelligence department is


    comparable to the FBI. It’s possible that they were investigating Francesca, so they ended up


    investigating us too. In order to exact his revenge on Francesca, Chrono purposely exposed our


    identities to our nemesis. I really can’t think of any other possibilities.”


    “It must’ve been him then.” La gritted her teeth and added, “If I knew this was going to happen, I


    should’ve steeled myself and killed that maniac back then.”


    “There’s no point in talking about that now.” Lincoln sighed. “Now, you need to quickly convince


    Francesca to get back together with Danrique. We need him to protect her. Otherwise, Francesca is


    going to be in danger after we leave.”


    “I’ve already said so much, so I hope it worked.” La was still feeling uneasy about it. “However,


    Danrique has a bad temper, you know? I heard that he’s still messing around with a daughter from the


    four great families. Is he really sincere toward Francesca?”


    “Well, it seems like that’s the case now. Who would know what’s going to happen in the future, right?


    We should just deal with what’s in front of us now.”


    At that point, Lincoln’s attitude was rather optimistic. “It’s unfortunate that Francesca had agreed to


    treat Prince William, and she can’t just take off at this crucial moment. Otherwise, things will be a lot


    easier if she could just go to Xendale.”
