Chapter 2291 Hope For The Best
Francesca was already on a plane when she finally regained consciousness. After freezing for a moment, she searched for Lincoln as soon as she came back to her senses.
“Mr. Lincoln wanted us to return to S Nation first. He’ll be back after avenging Ms. Layla,” said Anthony hesitantly. Francesca was furious. “Nonsense! How is Mr. Lincoln going to avenge anyone by himself? He’s putting himself in danger!”
“But you’ll be endangering yourself too if you go with him,” protested Anthony as he looked pitifully at Francesca. “You’re too weak to do anything helpful right now.” “It’s still better than letting him go alone.” Francesca got so angry that she could explode.
“Ms. Layla traded her life for yours. If anything happened to you, she would have died for nothing.” At that moment, Anthony was more serious than he had ever been. “Mr. Lincoln is only doing this for your own good. You should listen to him.”
Tears began to roll down Francesca’s cheeks when she heard those words. The usually cheerful woman suddenly became a crybaby.
“Even if you don’t care about yourself, you care about the children at the orphanage, don’t you? What will they do without you?” Anthony wiped Francesca’s tears away. “I sure won’t be able to earn enough money to feed them. Do you want to see them out in the streets? Who’s going to protect them if they get bullied? You promised to be their angel forever; you gave them your word that you’d protect and care for them until they became adults.”
“But I can’t let Mr. Lincoln endanger himself. I just can’t do it.” Francesca shook her head while tears began to pool in her eyes once again. “Ms. Layla has already died for me. I won’t be able to forgive myself if anything happens to Mr. Lincoln.”
When Anthony heard that, he fell silent. Mr. Lincoln has taken care of us like a father over the years. He and Ms. Layla were like family to me, so I don’t want to see him in any kind of danger either.
Suddenly, Anthony remembered something. “Right, when we were searching for you, Mr. Lincoln received news that Danrique could be back in Xendale and in a highly favorable position.”
