Chapter 2216


    Francesca slept so well that she did not realize someone had opened the door and entered the room


    quietly.


    “Did she finish the milk?”


    “Yes, Mam. She finished it.”


    “You can leave now.”


    “All right, Mam.”


    After ncing at the empty ss on the table and the sleeping Francesca, a cold glint shed across


    the firstdy''s eyes.


    She gestured for her two female bodyguards to enter the room and approach Francesca.


    All of a sudden, Francesca''s phone rang. She shivered for a second before sitting up and answering


    the call. “Danrique?”


    Her eyes were at half-mast as she talked over the phone. Raising her head, Francesca then noticed


    the firstdy and her two bodyguards standing by the bed. Stunned by their presence in the guest


    room, she asked, “W-What are you doing here?”


    “I...” The firstdy hesitated but responded quickly, “I came to check on you because I noticed you were


    “I''m fine. I feel tired and just want to sleep.” Francesca yawned while rubbing her eyes.


    “Oh, okay. I''m sorry. I''ll leave you alone now.” The firstdy and her two bodyguards immediately


    retreated. They also took the empty ss with them when leaving the room.


    Francesca then fell t on the bed while hugging a bolster. She continued talking to Danrique over the


    phone, “Hey, I''m dead tired. I''ll call youter, okay? I''m at the presidential pce. Avery is very ill, so


    they invited me to treat her...”


    After leaving the room, the firstdy called the maid over and confronted her. “You said she finished the


    milk, but howe she''s still awake? Did she drink it?”


    “Yes, she did, Mam. I saw her drinking it with my own eyes,” the maid uttered in a trembling voice. “I


    swear I''m telling the truth!”


    “Could it be the milk''s problem?” the firstdy questioned the bodyguards beside her. “Did you drug the


    drink?”


    “Yes, I did,” the bodyguard assured her. “It''s a powerful drug that would make her sleep like a log. She


    wouldn''t even wake up had we cut her with a knife...”


    “We drugged the milk, and she drank it. But how is it nothing happened to her?” The firstdy was


    fuming. “All of you owe me an exnation!”


    “I really have no idea...” the maid answered anxiously. “I did watch her finish the milk...”


    “There''s still some left here. I''ll drink it.” The bodyguard gulped the remaining milk in the ss. In mere


    seconds, she wrapped her arms around her head, copsed to the ground, and fell asleep.


    The people around her were dumbfounded upon seeing that. She did not even move when the first


    Another bodyguard deduced, “Obviously, the milk has been drugged. I supposed she didn''t drink the


    milk.”


    “Guards,” the firstdy eximed in anger, “drag her out of here!”


    “Yes, Mam!” The bodyguard pulled the maid away.


    Just when the maid was about to defend herself, the bodyguard immediately covered her mouth with


    her hand.


    A vortex of anger swirled inside the firstdy. She roared, “I had a chance, yet it slipped right through


    my fingertips! It''s all over now...” Reаd at Draмanоvels


    “Stay calm, Mam. We can do it again since she''s here all alone,” the bodyguard consoled her.Original content from N?velDrama.Org.
