Chapter 1799 His Highness Wants To See You
“I hurt my face, and the scar hasn’t gone away. I don’t want to frighten you with my ugliness.”
Francesca then came up with a great excuse. “It’s all your fault. You crashed into me and ruined my face, but you didn’t compensate me very much.”
Upon hearing the woman bring up money matters again, Danrique immediately lost interest in the subject. He didn’t even want to know what she could be scheming.
I’m not going to bother looking into something like this – or someone like her.
Thus, he ate a little before turning his attention to the medication.
From the scent alone, he knew the concoction was bitter and frowned deeply while holding the bowl.
“Chug it down. Good luck!”
Despite not looking at him, Francesca knew he was hesitating.
She was currently swiping some of the food with her back facing him. While eating, she kept one hand hovered over her chin to be able to pull her mask up at any time.
Danrique took a deep breath and closed his eyes. Then, he downed the entire bowl of medication in one fell swoop.
The man nearly threw up after swallowing some of the liquid, but he subconsciously did what Francesca had done to him before – covering his own mouth and continuing to swallow every drop of the concoction.
When he was done, he wiped his mouth with a piece of tissue and scoured the whole area for some candy.
“Here!” Francesca handed him a piece of candy that had been unwrapped.
She already had her mask on by now.
Danrique shoved the candy into his mouth and lay in bed. “What are you still doing here?” he asked upon noticing that the woman didn’t seem to want to leave.
“I have to be on night watch. What if you become feverish again?” Francesca answered while rummaging through her medical kit.
“Sean!” Danrique called out, blatantly ignoring her.
“Oh!” Sean hurriedly walked in. “Yes, Mr. Lindberg?”
“You’re on night watch.”
