However, my father was a fool. Before I left, I reminded him not to create trouble, but he didn't listen to my advice. He kept falling for Kevin and Harrier's instigation and did what Mrs. President told him to do. No matter what, Danrique protected me and my family. He will spare my family as my father is dead.
Hazel belatedly realized what Danrique had done for her. He was a loyal and caring man despite his indifference.
That was precisely why many people were willing to work for him at all costs.
He would never ignore his subordinates even in the most critical moment. As his assistant, she was also under his protection.
So...
Something occurred to Francesca as she asked hastily, “Does Mr. Lindberg have another way to protect Francesca?”
“That isn't your concern.” William had expected that, too. “What we need to do now is to help Danrique turn the tables.”
“Okay. I'll do as you say.”
Hazel trusted William completely. She knew he wanted nothing more than to save Francesca and Danrique as they were the ones who would protect him.
William smiled. “Good. Now, listen carefully.”
“All right.”
Throughout the journey, William didn't hold back in teaching Hazel what to do next. After hearing his plan, Hazel said in admiration, “Aside from Mr. Lindberg, you're the most astute person I've ever seen!”
“You flatter me, Ms. Atkinson,” came William's calm answer. “Let's work together to help L and Francesca weather the crisis together.”
“Okay!”
