Chapter 1934
"Go and guard the door" Layla ordered in a low voice.
"Understood."
Kerrie turned docile all of a sudden.She slowly walked over to the door and stood guard there like a statue.
Layla immediately opened the window, upon which a gust of cold wind hit her in the face.
Phew! Fortunately, it's only the seventh floor here! Then, she pressed the watch on her wrist.
In no time, a familiar voice drifted out.
"Ms.Layla!"
"We're moving now."
"'I make the arrangements right away!"
After ringing the alarm, Layla hurried over to Francesco and deftly removed the needle from the back of her hand.She draped a coat over the latter before helping her to the window.
"Can you make it?"
"Yes!"
Francesca strugglingly held on to the window sill to support herself while Layla dropped the rope down.
Subsequently, she grabbed onto the rope and got ready to jump down.
Knock, knock! At that precise moment, a knock suddenly sounded from outside the door.
Stunned for a moment, Francesca reflexively glanced back over her shoulder.
"Ms.Felch, Mr.Lindberg asked us to drive you back.We'll depart in an hour.Is that agreeable to you?"
It was Sean's voice.
At that, Francesca had no choice but to respond to him first.
"Go back? My injury hasn't healed yet, but I'm to go straight back to the castle?"
If I go back to the castle, it'll be difficult if I want to escape again!
"Mr.Lindberg said you're not comfortable staying at the hospital, so he had someone build a clinic in the castle.Dr.Wright will also be moving into the castle with her medical team later"
Sean explained respectfully through the door.
Upon hearing that, Francesca felt a touch perturbed.It turned out that Danrique made so many arrangements for me quietly.
With me leaving now, he'll definitely fly into a rage, no?
"If you want to leave later, that's fine as well.You have the final say" Sean added.
All of a sudden, Francesca hesitated and was no longer as decisive as before.
Clocking her expression, Layla whispered, "Why don't you reconsider it? I can tell that he cares about you quite a bit."
"The more he cares about me, the more I've got to distance myself."
