Chapter 1749 A New Chapter
Charlotte dropped her documents and made her way over to the window to marvel at the awe-inspiring view. Could Francesca be here to look for me?
“Meeting adjourned!” Danrique said in a cold voice.
The executives almost trampled over one another in their haste to leave the office.
“Danrique…”
“I knew it!” He gritted his teeth in consternation. “I know she wouldn’t be able to let go of her money, so I locked her bank cards, ID, and jewelry away in a safe downstairs. She took the bait!”
Charlotte was flabbergasted. Francesca is not here for me after all! She’s here for her money.
“Get back,” Danrique ordered before pulling open his drawer to reveal a safe painted entirely in gold. “You have no business being here.”
I’m confident that she would not be able to escape with the safe without me noticing. If she’s going to try anyway, things might get dangerous for Charlotte.
“We can talk about it, Danrique,” Charlotte pleaded.
Danrique merely flapped his hands impatiently.
Charlotte did not need to be told twice. Beckoning at Lupine and Morgan, the trio left hurriedly. Charlotte turned to take one last look at the safe when they were at the door.
There was a photograph attached to the side of the safe. In that photograph, Danrique’s head was tilted with a cold expression on his face. Francesca wore a red wig and leaned close to him.
Both of them had their lips locked though they did not look like they were kissing.
Their encounter must have been secretly captured as they appeared taken aback in the picture. It must have been the only photographic proof of their intimacy in existence.
It was obvious how much Danrique valued that photograph by holding on to it all that time.
At that moment, it was ironically attached to the safe which served to lure and deceive Francesca.
Charlotte could not resist herself. “How did you meet her, Danrique?”
“What’s it to you? Scram.”
Danrique had made preparations for a fight to the death with Francesca and was not pleased to see Charlotte dawdling in the vicinity.
Charlotte pointed at the photograph on the safe. “Was that photograph of the both of you taken in secret when you first met?”
