Chapter 2235


    Her words were obviously provocative.


    Francesca furrowed her brows and was about to say something when the firstdy spoke up to smooth


    things over. “Okay, that''s enough. Our main priority is to find Danrique.”


    Hazel responded, “I hope we could find him as soon as possible, too. My subordinates and I have


    already informed Gordon about the situation. He has gotten all the information he needs and is


    investigating the situation now.”


    The firstdy sighed sorrowfully. “That''s good to know. I hope Danrique will be able to return safely.”


    At that moment, Gerard said sarcastically, “We all hope for that. With the absence of Danrique, some


    urgent projects cannot be initiated, while some important projects have to be postponed as they require


    approvals. As a result, thepany has suffered significant losses. If this continues, the problem will


    only worsen.”


    “The president has already sent people over. At the same time, we contacted the government there.


    We will bring Danrique back safely.” The firstdy changed the subject.


    “It''s great that we have the president''s help. Danrique would surely return soon,” Gerard quickly replied.


    The firstdy nodded. “Yes. Let''s eat first. We can talk while we eat.”


    Hazel said feebly, “Mrs. President, I''m not feeling well, so I can''t stay outside for long. I won''t be able to


    eat dinner with you.”


    Gerard chimed in hastily, “That''s right. Hazel is badly injured and was carried back home on a hospital


    bed in the morning. We wouldn''t even be here if you didn''t summon us.”


    “Come to think of it, Francesca is a doctor. Why don''t you let her have a look at Hazel''s injuries?” the


    firstdy suggested enthusiastically.


    “There''s no need for that. I can''t trouble the almighty Dr. Felch with my minor injuries!” Hazel gazed at


    Francesca coldly.


    While Francesca was fuming, the firstdy stepped in to defuse the situation yet again. “Francesca has


    exceptional medical skills. Previously, when Avery had a rpse, the other doctors could not do


    anything to save her. Francesca was the one who saved Avery.”


    “Is Avery okay?” Hazel asked concerned.


    “Her situation has already stabilized.”


    In the midst of their conversation, the firstdy''s phone suddenly rang. She took a look at the caller ID

    and said hastily, “The president is calling. I need to take this. You guys can sit here and wait for me to


    return.”


    “All right. Go ahead.” Gerard and Hazel nodded in response.


    After the firstdy left to take the call, Gerard, Hazel, Francesca, and a few maids were the only ones


    left in the private room.


    Gerard said with a cynical tone, “Don''t think of yourself as thedy of the Lindberg family simply


    because you''re dating Danrique. You need to understand that you guys are still not married, so you''re


    not part of the family yet.”


    “Daddy—” Hazel furrowed her brows and tried to stop him.


    “Hazel, you''re too much of a pushover,” said Gerard to Hazel before glowering at Francesca with


    hatred. “I don''t understand what Danrique sees in you. You don''t have any good qualities, yet you act


    high and mighty. Let me tell you. You have to give up the seal sooner orter. With Danrique absent,


    the other directors would still need to ensure that thepany continues running. It''s not something an


    outsider like you can have a say in.”


    “You—”


    “Daddy...” Reаd at Dramanovеls


    “The audacity!”


    Enraged, Francesca picked up an ashtray and threw it in his direction.


    Gerard hastily ducked to avoid it, and itnded on Hazel instead. The woman yelped in pain as the


    color drained from her face.
