q“You're intelligent, Ms. Felch.” Monica chuckled. “His Highness was right.”
“You're one of William's men?”
Francesca was astonished. It had been a long time since she contacted William. The last time she saw him was when she was up against Frank at Xendale.
She never thought that William would have sent someone to protect her from the shadows.
“Somewhat,” Monica replied. “I'm actually an Interpol officer, but I'm under Prince William's instructions to protect you. His Highness said that you might be upset if you knew about my identity, so I thought of a different way to approach you instead. I thought I'd fooled you, but it seems like you've known that I was lying since the start.”
“Regardless of everything, thank you.” Francesca was truly grateful for her assistance. “My gratitude is to William too.”
“I think you should thank him yourself,” Monica said with a smile. “His Highness has been waiting for you the whole time.”
“William's in S Nation?” Francesca gasped.
“Yes. He came at the same time, but he took a different private jet.” Monica lowered her head respectfully. “He should be contacting you at a later time. I'll be taking my leave now. Goodbye.”
Monica left.
As Anthony stared at her retreating figure, he muttered, “I would've never guessed that she's an Interpol officer by her young looks.”
“She's much more impressive than you.” Layla smacked Anthony's head and berated, “You don't even know how to guard someone. What can you even do?”
“Ms. Layla, why are you still chiding me when I'm already hurt?” Anthony mumbled miserably as he pouted.
“If not for the fact that you're hurt, I would've beaten you up!” Layla shot him a glare. “You're so infuriating. If not for Ms. Monica this time, the consequences would have been unimaginable!”
Anthony grinned and leaned against Layla as he sang, “Yes, yes. Everything's my fault. I'll become the personification of a headache and never leave her alone ever again.”
“Shoo.” Layla kicked him. “Settle the compensation matters with the hospital. I want to have a talk with Francesca.”
