Chapter 1854
When Francesca woke up, she realized she was in a white room.
All the decorations in the room were mainly white with a touch of other in colors. It looked refreshing
and romantic.
Just as she was still observing the room with a nk mind, a few maids suddenly entered the room and
greeted her politely. “You''re awake, Ms. Cece.”
Francesca was dumbfounded. Ms. Cece?
“Greetings. My name is Norah, the stewardess of this castle. Mr. Lindberg had asked us to take good
care of you. How are you feeling right now? Does your wound still hurt? I''ve already asked someone to
call the doctor.” A foreign middle-aged woman with a warm smile approached the bed Francesca was
lying on.
While she was a foreigner, she could speak pretty fluent Chanaean.
“Where am I?” Francesca tried to sit up forcefully.
Two maids swiftly rushed toward her to help her up.
“This is the Lindberg residence in Xendale, Erihal,” Norah exined with a smile. “It''s also Mr.
Lindberg''s home.”
“Ah?” Francesca was shocked.
Danrique brought me to his home in Erihal? Oh no, oh no. There''s no way I can''t escape now.
At that moment, the door was pushed open. A few female doctors entered the room. They first bowed
at her politely before examining her wound.
Francesca was in so much pain that she couldn''t move properly, so all she could do was to let them
examine her. Have they found out about the injury at the back of my brain? Did Danrique know my true
identity? I guess I’ll know soon enough...
After a while, she let out a sigh of relief in her mind. No, I wasn''t found out. If I was, then they would''ve
known my true identity. And if they did, then they wouldn''t be calling me Ms. Cece. Still, I suppose that
isn’t weird, since they''re just normal doctors. They''re only concerned about treating the gunshot wound
on my back. It''s unlikely they''ll notice the metal hidden inside my noggin. It''s good that they don''t know,
otherwise, Danrique will just think I''m lying to him and ying him. Still, I told him I''m pregnant, so why
did he bring me back to his home? Even if he doesn''t mind I have a boyfriend right now, does he really
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
not mind that I''m pregnant?
“We''re going to change your bandages now, Ms. Cece. It''ll hurt, but it''ll be quick. Please bear with us...”
The doctor''s Chanaean wasn’t great, but it was understandable.
“Mhm.” Francescay down and waited for them to treat her wound.
The doctors were already very gentle with their movements, but when they applied the ointments, it still
caused a little bit of pain. When Francesca let out a small groan of pain, a roar was heard from outside
of the door. “Be gentler!”
“Yes, Mr. Lindberg!”
The female doctors were shaking in their boots and treated the wound even more gently.
Francesca turned her head back and saw Danrique standing at the door, looking at her with furrowed
eyebrows. There was worry and anxiety on his face.
It made her a little confused. What''s going on with this guy? Did he figure out I was lying to him? Did he
intentionally bring me here to punish me? Or is he still on his one-track mind thinking that I''m his first
love from when he was young and that he wanted to stay with me even when I''m carrying another
person''s child?
After the ointments were applied and the bandages were changed, the doctors left.
Norah covered Francesca with a nket and stood aside.
Only then did Danrique walk in. He asked softly, “Does it still hurt?”
“Ugh...” Francesca was feeling a little uncertain as she replied weakly, “It''s fine.”
“I see,” she replied before asking, “Why did you bring me back to your home?”
“You''re hurt because of me, so I''m going to take responsibility for that,” Danrique said seriously. “I''ll
protect you and take care of you from now on!” Updated at Drаmanovels
Before she could finish, she suddenly heard a loud banging from the outside.
“I''m sorry, Mr. Lindberg.”
