Chapter 1983
“That''s enough! Shut up!” Chrono was enraged.
“No, it''s not enough. An ouw like you shouldn''t have children in the first ce. Even if you have a
child, you shouldn''t have brought your child with you. You were the one who caused Candice''s death,
and now you''re ming it on me and the paramedics. They are innocent. Thirteen lives were taken by
you just like that. You think you''re avenging Candice, but have you ever thought if she really wanted
you to do this? She''d hate you if she knew you killed so many people for her sake—” “Shut up! Shut up
right now!” Chrono howled in distress, and a gunshot reverberated outside, tearing the silence of the
night.
Right after that, the call ended.
Sloan immediately sent someone to check out the situation and informed the police.
Francesca looked down at her phone withplex emotions.
Initially, she only wanted to talk to him, but the man was too adamant in insisting that she was the one
who had caused Candice''s death. She then reprimanded him out of irritation and ended up causing him
to fly into a rage.
A top assassin like him excelled at hiding, and he would not easily expose his whereabouts, which
made it difficult for the Lindbergs to track him down.
Now that Chrono had lost hisposure and fired a gunshot, revealing his current location, Sloan
immediately took action and called the police.
Even if they failed to capture him this time, he wouldn''t be able to approach her within a short period of
time.
Therefore, that was probably considered an unexpected gain.
Francesca’s head began hurting again. She put her phone down, wrapped both her hands around her
head, andy down, waiting for the pain to subside.
Her phone was vibrating, but she was in so much pain that she could not bother to check.
A whileter, her phone went out of battery and switched off automatically.
After all, a lot of calls came in that day, and she didn''t charge her phone.
Meanwhile, in Xendale, Danrique listened to the busy signal over the phone and gritted his teeth in
anger. The audacity of this woman to ignore my calls and texts''. Fine''. Since she ignores me, I won''t
bother about her either’.
The more Danrique thought about it, the more his anger brewed. Irked, he threw his phone away.
“Could it be that something happened?”
Sean immediately gave Sloan a call, getting information from thetter that there was a gunshot nearby
where Francesca was at. It was probably the person who hadunched a sneak attack the night
before. Sloan had sent someone to track the person down.
Sean asked if Francesca was all right, and the former was relieved to hear from Sloan that she was
fine. Moreover, Sloan also told him that they had sent someone to protect her at all times, and he
asked Sean to reassure Danrique.
After giving Sloan a few more reminders, Sean hung up the phone and cautiously tried to console
Danrique. “Mr. Lindberg, as you know, there was a gunshot nearby the vi. I suppose Ms. Felch is just
frightened. She''ll probably contact youter.”
Danrique scoffed. “Frightened? She isn''t scared of anything. Why would she be frightened by a
gunshot?”
“Um...” Sean didn''t know how to answer that.
Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
“Perhaps she pretended to be gentle and docile so I would allow her to return to the country alone.
That way, she could grasp the opportunity to escape... Otherwise, why has she been ignoring me since
she reached H City?” Danrique felt that something was wrong.
“Please don''t overthink. Maybe that''s not the case.”
Danrique became increasingly flustered with the current situation.
“Yes, sir!” Co?tent of Drаmа?ovels.cоm
“From now on, I''ll ignore her too.
Unless something serious happens to her, don''t mention her at all. I''m going to wait for her toe and
apologize to me."
Still annoyed, Danrique had a grim expression on his face.
Sean nodded but sighed inwardly. Yeah, right. You won''t be able to ignore her for long. I bet you''d
contact her within three days.
