Chapter 2059


    Chapter 2059 Reminder


    When Francesca woke up the following morning, La was nowhere in sight. Initially, Francesca was


    not bothered as she thought La had returned to her room. However, just as she was getting


    changed, Anthony came barging in while he shouted, “Francesca, this is bad-”


    Anthony quickly found himself choking on his word, for he ran into a half-naked Francesca. The scene


    had him turning around immediately, and with a nervous tone, he said, “I-I didn’t mean it!”


    “Remember to knock next time.” On the other hand, Francesca took her time putting on her shirt and


    jeans. “What happened? Why are you so nervous?”


    “Ms. La and Mr. Lincoln are gone,” Anthony replied hurriedly, “I went to see Mr. Lincoln this morning,


    but he’s not around. Then there’s also Ms. La! Both of them are gone. They both left in a jeep.”


    “They have something they need to attend to.” Francesca replied casually, “Why are you acting like it’s


    a big deal?”


    “No. That’s not it! The door to the armory in Mr. Lincoln was opened!”


    Upon hearing this, Francesca stiffened up for a second before she put up a serious expression. “What


    did you say?”


    At the same time, she was also walking toward the door while Anthony followed. His tone was anxious


    as he said, “Something is wrong with them and I’m sure of that. Mr. Lincoln gave me a morning lesson


    every day and acted like he was making a funeral arrangement for himself. Moreover, Ms. La also


    stopped scolding me for some reason. She even cooked a big meal for me yesterday.”


    “Get to the point,” the impatient Francesca said sternly.


    “I think they’re gone because of something else. They might not return, or Mr. Lincoln wouldn’t open the


    armory. It’s been a long time since theyy their fingers on those weapons,” Anthony finally voiced his


    opinion after being reprimanded.


    Meanwhile, as Anthony continued his long-winded talk, Francesca was already in Lincoln’s room. The


    armory door was locked, but a color pattern was gone from the rainbow marking imprinted on the lock.


    When Lincoln designed that armory, he once said he hoped he would never have to open it again, for


    that meant that they would be able to live peacefully for the rest of their lives alongside La.


    And in case there was a need to open it, he wished there would be a limit to how many times he would


    open it.


    Hence, he made a rainbow marking and imprinted it on the armory’s lock, which signified that the door


    could only be opened seven times. Each time the door was opened, one of the seven color patterns


    from the rainbow marking would be gone.


    Long ago, when they first got here, they were often harassed by the local mobs. The mobs looking for


    trouble had also injured the orphanage’s employees and children.


    Hence, out of anger, La and Lincoln opened the door to the armory three times and had the local


    mobs entirely removed from their roots.


    Later, they opened it up again during Chrono’s revenge to retrieve some self-defense weapons against


    Chrono and his men.


    By right, after all these incidents, there should be only three more color patterns on the rainbow


    markings, but there are just two of them right now, which means that the armory was opened once


    again by them the night before or in the morning.


    Seeing the disappeared color from the rainbow marking and recalling everything La said to her,


    Francesca finally understood everything. She eventually learned why the straightforward and decisive


    La tried to talk sense into her and why she slept with Francesca. Those were all La’s farewell


    messages.


    Yet, there she was,pletely unaware of anything.

    In an instant, overwhelming guilt swallowed Francesca. She hurriedly dialed La’s number, only to


    discover that she had already switched off her phone. Unable to reach La, Francesca immediately


    called Lincoln, and it was the same. His phone was switched off, just like La’s.


    Francesca was anxious, and she immediately grabbed the car keys from Lincoln’s table. As she was


    about to leave to chase after La and Lincoln, she heard Anthony shouting, “Wait!”


    “What now?” Francesca replied impatiently.


    “There’s a letter here.”


    Anthony pulled a letter out from the bottom of a vase and delivered it to Francesca. It was a letter


    written to Francesca.


    The youngdy immediately opened the letter, filled with familiar handwriting. The words were all


    written with love and care, just like La’s tonest night.


    Dear Frannie, Lincoln and I are already gone when you see this letter. Many enemies are on the hunt


    for us now that our cover is blown. Therefore, we decided to leave before we drag you into this mess.
