Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort novel Chapter 2139

Chapter 2138 Argued

Hearing that, Francesca couldn’t put up an argument. Danrique was right. His strength was that he refused to bow down to others, regardless of how powerless he was. He would always tap into his inner strength and find a way to solve his problems.

William, however, depended heavily on others to help him. But that was understandable, though.

After all, Danrique had his aunt on his side despite having to fight at a young age. She helped him and prepared him for his future. He was also physically fit and could throw a punch, should the situation demand it. William, however, had absolutely nothing.

Naturally, those were just external factors. The most important part was also the most obvious one. Even if William were physically fit, he still wouldn’t be as strong as Danrique.

The two men were fundamentally different. Danrique was inhumanly strong and incredibly persistent. Those qualities were something only a handful of people had.

That was why he became the man he was, and why William remained helpless. At the end of the day, the two men were on different levels. Francesca knew that very well.

The problem was that she couldn’t bear to watch William get into trouble. He had faith in her and had put over eighty people’s lives, including his, in her hands. She couldn’t let them die just like that. She simply couldn’t…

“Are you here to ask me to help William?” asked Danrique. Finally, he got to the point. “Yeah,” replied Francesca. She cut to the chase as well. “It’s just as you guessed. I only returned to Xendale to deal with this matter.”

Danrique frowned deeply upon hearing those words. “I thought you came back for me.”

“I miss you too, but…”

Danrique pushed Francesca away before she could finish speaking.

After that, he turned around and continued reading his documents. He refused to even look at her.

“Danrique,” murmured Francesca as she poked his muscular shoulder with her finger. “Are you mad?”

Danrique ignored her and kept working away.

The lighting in the room made him look even more distant.

Francesca suddenly felt wronged. She didn’t even know what went wrong. They had just begun talking about the matter, and he was suddenly mad.
