Chapter 2238

“But he's obviously someone we know. The Lindberg residence is enormous—this spot is three kilometers away from the sentry post, and there are seven palaces in total. The fact that he could find his way here and even find the study room means that he had visited before on his own or with other people,” Layla pointed out.

Francesca knitted her brows. “If that's the case, he must be from the three great families. They just couldn't wait to get their hands on the seal, huh?”

Following a short pause, she added, “Could he be from the Atkinson family? They probably knew earlier on that I was going to meet Mrs. President, so they sent someone to sneak in while I was out. Or could the three great families be in this together?”

Layla nodded. “You're right. The three great families are in solidarity at this time. As long as they pull Danrique down, they will be able to split the valuable Lindberg Corporation among themselves.”

Just then, the maid knocked on the door. “Ms. Felch, Mr. Donald is requesting to see you.”

“Tell him to get lost—”

“Wait,” Layla cut in. “She said he's requesting to see you.”

Francesca understood what Layla meant right away and opened the door. “What did he say?” she asked the maid.

“He didn't come in. He's waiting outside, and he asked the guard to pass the message that he is requesting to see you. He has something important to discuss with you,” the maid recounted.

Hearing that, Francesca exchanged glances with Layla. She then consented, “Let him in.”

“Okay.” The maid went off to relay the message.

“If my guess is correct, he must have come to ask for a reconciliation,” Layla remarked in a low voice. “If the three great families take the seal, he will be the first one to get kicked out. Therefore, he has to reconcile with you and join your side. Only then will he have a chance to survive. Besides, I noticed that Donald stayed at the back without a word when Kevin and Gerard came to cause trouble last time. He did not join in their ruckus, and he seemed anxious. This means he's well aware of Lindberg Corporation's fate once the three great families get their hands on the seal. By then...”

“You're right,” Francesca agreed. “He doesn't have a powerful status nor many shares in Lindberg Corporation. His last name is the only reason he has a spot in there. If Danrique gets dragged down from his position, Donald will be doomed.”

“That's right.” Layla then advised, “If he's here for a reconciliation, you can give him a chance. After all, he's more familiar with the three great families and the company, so he should know how to deal with them.”
