Chapter 1842


    “How is that possible?” Anthony eximed, quickly dispelling her thoughts. “We''ve always been


    together, and we talk about everything under the sun. How could I possibly not know if you''ve got a


    lover?”


    “Uh...” Francesca nodded in agreement and said, “Well, maybe I knew him before I knew you?”


    “You were only sixteen when I became friends with you. Back then, you were constantly working on the


    mountain, while he''s been working in Erihal. So, how did you guys get to know each other and even fall


    in love?” stated Anthony, analyzing the situation rationally. “Besides, even if you knew Danrique, you


    can''t possibly be his first love. Both of you are of different worlds, to begin with.”


    “That''s right.” After giving it some thought, Francesca, too, found it quite impossible. She and Danrique


    were indeed two different people. Be it their identity, social status, family background, or even their


    character, there was a major contrast between them.


    “Maybe I should talk to him.” Anthony was worried about letting Francesca face him again. “I''ll just


    make the situation clear and retrieve the ne. Let''s not make thingsplicated.” “Okay.”


    Francesca nodded. “Don''t let him know about our rtionship. Just try it out using only your name. It''ll


    make things easier for me if you can get it back.”


    “All right.”


    Soon, both of them settled down at the hotel. Francesca stayed in the hotel to get some rest while


    Anthony contacted Danrique right away.


    That night, Francesca was awakened by a phone call. It was from William.


    Still feeling groggy, she answered, “Hello?”


    “Francesca, I''ve just got off the ne. Where are you? I''ll go over to your ce.” He sounded rather


    excited.

    “I''m sleeping at a hotel.” Francesca yawned. “Meet meter...”


    “Okay. You carry on sleeping then. Come see me once you''re awake, okay?” William sensed she was


    still sleepy and did not want to interrupt her rest.


    “Okay.” After ending the call, she squinted her eyes for a while to make herself sober up. Then, she


    gave Anthony a call. “How did it go?” “I contacted Danrique''s subordinate, Sean. But he rejected my


    request to meet Danrique right away without even waiting for me to finish. He even blocked my


    number.” Anthony was annoyed. “Looks like these so-called important people are really arrogant. They


    don''t even bother giving any chances to people they don''t know.”


    “I knew it.” Francesca smiled. “It''s okay. I''ll deal with it on my own. You should go back to the hotel and


    get some rest.”


    “But won''t it be dangerous if you go there alone? Maybe I should go with


    you—


    Before Anthony could finish, Francesca hung up and called William. “Where are you meeting up with


    Danrique?”


    “I’ve just received a call from him saying he’s got some matters to deal with tonight. So, he won''t be


    meeting me. Francesca, where are you? I''ll go to you—”


    “He’s got matters? What kind of matters?” Francesca interrupted William. She then demanded, “Do you


    know where’s he going?”


    William, who was on the other end of the call, fell silent. After some time, he finally asked softly, “You


    didn''t return to H City to see me. You''re here to meet him, aren''t you?”


    “Exactly. I need to talk to him about some matters,” she admitted unhesitatingly. “Do you know his


    whereabouts?”


    “Sultry Night?” Francesca did not know what kind of ce that was.


    “It''s H City''s most famous bar,” William exined.


    “Oh. I see. Thank you!” Francesca thanked him and ended the call right away. Re?d at

    If she were to ask it from him again, he would definitely get to the bottom of the matter. Perhaps he


    would even remove her mask to find out what she looked like.
