Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 2098

Chapter 2098 Awake

Now that she thought about it, they had not contacted one another for two days. They did not speak to each other since the night before she arrived at Danontand until that moment.

Francesca took the initiative to call him, but he did not pick up the phone. She did not know if he was mad at her or if there were other reasons. Anyway, she felt ill at ease.

After contemplating briefly, she dialed Sean’s number. The call finally connected after a long while. “Ms. Felch!” “Where’s Danrique?”

Francesca heard the sound of music and the voices of people engaged in conversations. It seemed to her Danrique was not busy, nor was he angry at her. He appeared to be enjoying his life.

“There’s a banquet tonight. Mr. Lindberg is speaking to Mr. President and…” Sean gazed at Danrique, who was chatting with the president and the president’s daughter, and chose his words wisely to avoid raising an unnecessary conflict. “And a few of his old acquaintances.”

“Ask him to return my call when he’s done with his work.”

Despite feeling slightly jittery, Francesca understood Danrique’s need to socialize at times. “All right, Ms. Felch. I’ll be sure to relay your message to Mr. Lindberg.”

Francesca went to prepare the medications after hanging up the call. Everyone inside the castle had been poisoned except for her, not to mention the casualties. As a doctor, she had to carry out her responsibilities.

William stayed beside Robin inside the clinic the entire time. His subordinates and maids were touched by his thoughtfulness. One of them could not help but say, “Your Highness, you’re so kind to us. You’re risking your life to weather this predicament with us!”

“You all stayed loyal to me and did not abandon me. Naturally, I have to be responsible and see to your survival. Don’t worry. I will not allow anyone to be harmed as long as I’m here,” William uttered earnestly.

“Your Highness…” A few female maids started crying because William’s compassion moved them.

“Your Highness, Mr. Robin is awake!” one of the subordinates exclaimed.

“That’s great.” William immediately pushed his wheelchair forward.

“Your Highness, should we call Ms. Felch over?”

“That’s not needed. Francesca has been busy the whole day, so let her get some rest. Since Robin has woken up, that means he’s fine.”

“Yes.” The subordinates fell silent and retreated aside.

A maid hurriedly prepared a bucket of warm water to wipe Robin’s body while a medical staff fed him some water.
