Chapter 1824


    Francesca was lost for words. What did I do? Why do they think I''m a female pervert? They thought I


    wanted to sleep with Danrique and offered Sloan as a sacrifice.


    “Dr. Felch, if he isn''t to your liking, I shall summon the otherster...” Sean offered earnestly, for he


    wanted to solve the problem for his employer.


    “No need.” Francesca''s expression darkened as she dered coolly, “I want Mr. Lindberg. No one else


    can take his ce!”


    They took me for a pervert, so I shall make it the truth! Otherwise, I would''ve been wrongly used for


    nothing.


    Everyone gazed at her in shock.


    Oh, what a brazen woman. She''s being shamelessly open with her feelings and does whatever she


    wants...


    “Hey!” Danrique''s face flushed a dark red in anger.


    “Dr. Felch, Mr. Lindberg is in love with someone else. You can''t force him to like you," Sean replied in


    exasperation.


    “I don''t care. I want him!” Francesca demanded.


    She was inwardly pleased to see Danrique''s upset face and even reached out to pinch his chin. “You''re


    a hunk, huh?”


    “Scram!” Danrique pped her hand away and red at her in disgust. “If youy a hand on me again,


    I shall chop your hand off!”


    “My hand in exchange for your life. It''s a bargain,” Francesca replied cheerfully instead of getting mad


    at his rude reply.


    Her words were pretty easy to understand—if he were to chop her arm off, no one else could treat his


    condition.


    That was why she said it was a bargain to get his life in exchange for her arm.


    “Hey!”


    Danrique was close to blowing his top, but Francesca grinned and told him, “Bear with me until you get


    cured. No, even if I managed to cure you, you can''t touch me. What if you get sick in the future? You''ll

    still have to ask for my help.”


    “Someone!” Danrique barked impatiently. “Seal her lips!”


    “Uh...” Sean and Gordon shared a look instead of taking action.


    “Mr. Lindberg...” Sloan wanted to defend her, but changed his mind and swallowed his words.


    “All right. I shall stop talking. Will that suffice?” Francesca shut her mouth and raised her hands to


    surrender.


    The odds are against me, and a wise man knew when to back down.


    Danrique gestured at her in a warning manner before leaning into his seat and shut his eyes.


    He was feeling unwell, but she kept


    annoying him.


    As he couldn''t outwit her, he had no choice but to do it the hard way.


    Francesca knew him well enough, so she didn''t confront him head-on.


    However, she''d only give in after making him utterly furious.


    It seemed like he was the winner, but the real winner was none other than Francesca.


    She had him on a leash, but he didn’t even realize that.


    The journey back home took over three hours by car.


    Danrique''s condition worsened, for his temperature kept rising and dropping.


    Sean asked Francesca to figure out a solution as soon as possible.


    “But Mr. Lindberg is feeling unwell. Don''t you have any medicine to relieve his condition?” Sean urged.


    No,” came Francesca''s calm answer.


    “Don''t worry, he won''t die.”


    “You...” Gordon fumed. “Dr. Felch, this is too much.”


    “You can take over my position any time!” Francesca shrugged nonchntly.


    Gordon was dumbfounded and couldn''t find any response.  NovelDrama.Org


    “All right, stop arguing so Mr. Lindberg can rest in a quiet environment,” Sean cut in.


    He then told the driver to speed up.


    Kerrie applied an ice pack to Danrique s forehead to cool him down.


    In a daze, Danrique muttered, “Cece...”
