Chapter 2306 Pressure
Danrique fell silent upon hearing that. He hadn’t contacted Francesca for a long time, and he missed her every day. Sometimes, when he spaced out, he could even vaguely see her before him.
I really miss her, but I don’t want to contact her, as I don’t know how to face her. I always had confidence in myself, but now, I don’t know if I can give her a stable life. I’d rather bear the pain of missing her.
Sean understood Danrique’s concerns, so he stopped persuading him and left quietly. Danrique sat alone on the sofa and stared fixedly at Francesca’s phone number on his phone for the longest time.
On the plane, Francesca was also staring at her phone, wondering if she should call Danrique. “We’re flying soon,” Anthony said quietly. Francesca put down her phone and turned to gaze outside the window, feeling lost.
In a way, I really resent him. If not for him, Ms. Layla wouldn’t have died, and Mr. Lincoln wouldn’t have been captured. I was just an average doctor. He was the one who dragged me into this mess. As I’m his fiancée, I’m not afraid of being implicated or dying, but I don’t want people around me to get involved. Ms. Layla and Mr. Lincoln shouldn’t have been implicated.
However, Francesca also knew that she shouldn’t blame Danrique for everything, as she also played a big role in how things turned out.
I know Candice was a major reason why the first lady sought revenge against me. I had long guessed that the first lady was related to Chrono, but I didn’t expect Candice to be Avery and Chrono’s illegitimate daughter. Just because I was a busybody, I caused a string of vengeful acts. First, it was Chrono.
Then it was the first lady. I wonder if other people will come to seek revenge in the future. This incident has taught me a huge lesson, but I don’t understand what I did wrong. I only wanted to save Candice. Why did things turn out this way?
I swear I will never meddle in others’ business and save everyone I see. Never. Now, I only want to deal with this issue. First, I’ll save Mr. Lincoln, then, if possible, help Danrique out of his predicament, but I’m not sure whether General Jablonski and the patients can help me and to what extent.
Time ticked by, and after more than ten hours, they finally arrived in Xendale. Francesca met up with the other patients she had gathered at the airport, and upon seeing the huge crowd of people, she couldn’t help but be stunned.
I know they are big shots, but I don’t know they are so influential. I think I unconsciously did something impressive.
Soon, international news outlets were broadcasting how thirteen big shots, who were a Chanaean doctor’s patients, had hurried from all over the world to Xendale to help clear her name.
The news also added pictures and videos of them, but Francesca only showed her back and side profile, so her features weren’t clear.
However, the thirteen big shots were not camera-shy. They publicly announced their support for Francesca and Danrique and that their purpose in accompanying Francesca to Xendale was to seek justice for her.
This piece of news spread across the globe like wildfire and sparked hot debate.
Soon, many supporters of Francesca also decided to fly to Xendale to support her.
Immediately, this matter became the talk of the town.
These people were highly influential, putting a lot of pressure on the president in ways that one could not fathom.
Seeing that things were about to go out of hand and the situation was urgent, the president could only give in and call Danrique again.
