Chapter 2110 Speaking Up
Federico’s words carried heavy and shocking implications. The atmosphere immediately grew tense.
Even the carefree Francesca froze in shock. She instinctively looked at William as an outrageous thought crossed her mind. Could it be true?
Meanwhile, William raised his head and met the king’s gaze. He declared firmly, “Your Majesty, I have nothing to hide nor the courage to manipulate others, especially L!”
William could not have answered Federico’s question more openly than that. The king narrowed his eyes and stared at William. “Then tell me. Did Robin lie?”
Complex emotions filled the king’s gaze. William replied honestly, “Based on the recording I heard, Robin had said nothing but the truth.”
“Is it?” Federico began to doubt himself.
“Why don’t I answer you instead? We’re basically talking about my status as someone’s fiancée.” Francesca continued impatiently, “I was still Danrique’s fiancée before four this morning, but that is no longer the case as we have split up. Then, the media reported on Danrique and Hazel’s engagement. Simple as that.”
“Erm…” Stunned, Silas muttered, “That sounds so childish.” “Why did you break up so suddenly? Was it because of me?” asked William softly.
“It has nothing to do with you. Danrique just went crazy.” Furious, Francesca added, “Robin wasn’t lying, and nor was William. Though I didn’t want to be involved in this or drag Danrique into this mess, things have spiraled to the point where I feel I must explain everything clearly.”
