Chapter 2330 Tracking Her Down
“W-What do you mean?” Anthony asked as panic seized him. “Everyone’s hearts would slowly age as they grow older, but mine is just ten times faster than an ordinary person’s…” Francesca explained calmly, “It’s not a big deal. Everyone will die eventually. It’s only a matter of time…”
“D-Don’t scare me, Francesca. You’re still young. You’re only in your early twenties—”
“Don’t be scared.” She patted him on the shoulder with a smile. “I’m taking precautions, that’s all. I won’t die so soon. It’s too early for that.” “T-Then—”
“All right. Enough of that.” Francesca reassured him, “Don’t be so anxious. I’m merely telling you these things because I believe you would live longer than I do, considering how healthy and carefree you are. You need not be overly anxious.”
Anthony didn’t dare to ask any more questions, but he was still anxious. Ever since Ms. Layla and Mr. Lincoln died, she’s become my only family left in this world. I can’t imagine what I would do without her…
Despite his worries, the days that followed were peaceful. The family of six kept living in seclusion on Mount Phoenix. Everything seemed to be peaceful. Francesca was in good health, and the children gradually grew.
Anthony almost believed that they would live happily forever, until this day, when a group of strange people came to the foot of the mountain, seemingly coming for Francesca and the children.
Fortunately, in the past two years, Francesca had perfected her formidable ability and had made sufficient preparations, so they quickly fled with the children and tricked those trackers along the way.
The family fled Phoenix City with Kimberley and her husband. On the way, Anthony asked in confusion, “How strange. Who are those people? Why are they tracking you down? Could something have happened to Danrique again?”
Francesca had also been following Danrique’s news for the past two years. Although his cousin Charlotte had recently appeared in quite a lot of news, he had kept a low profile during this time. Nothing seemingly happened, and there was no negative news about him either.
But if it’s not related to Danrique, why would anyone want to track me down? I haven’t offended anyone.
While she was wondering about that, there was an incoming call on her phone. The caller was Sean, and he sounded very anxious. “Are you all right, Ms. Felch?” he asked.
“I’m fine.” Francesca then probed, “Did something happen to Danrique?”
“Something did happen to Mr. Lindberg, but we can handle it. He told me to call you because he was afraid that you would be implicated,” Sean replied. “I’m glad that you’re okay. You should relocate since your previous location has been leaked. I’ve already sent someone over to protect you.”
“No need for that,” she immediately interrupted him. “It’s better if you don’t send anyone. It’ll be even more troublesome—”
“But your whereabouts have been exposed. I’m worried that you and the children will be in danger…”
“I can manage on my own,” Francesca said confidently.
However, it soon became too much for her to handle.
She could elude even the most effective tracking when she was alone. However, now that she was bringing along two elderly people, three children, and two dogs, not even the heavens could help her.
A month in, and Francesca could not take it anymore. The children nearly got injured several times, and Anthony was shot in his right leg and injured his shin while protecting them. Kimberley’s husband even fell from the car and broke his leg, causing his wife to cry every day.
Despite all that, those people were still chasing after them.
Francesca received news that Charlotte had a total falling out with the Nacht family to get revenge and was in great danger. Danrique and the president also had another power struggle.
The former, however, appeared to be more capable of resisting this time, and as a result of being overpowered, the president dispatched someone to capture Francesca.
Francesca thought that she could get away from trouble after leaving Danrique and the Lindberg family but never had she expected that she would still be unable to do so…
