Mysterious Male Escort Is a Mogul

Chapter 2323

“What happened? What's wrong with Danrique?”

In that instant, Francesca forgot all the grievances and hatred between her and Danrique, anxious to know about the man's condition.

Lowering his head, Sean answered sadly, “He has been poisoned with a deadly poison by the Nacht family. We've already hired the most outstanding team of doctors and medical teams who have treated him for more than a month, but there hasn't been any improvement. Gordon hiked up the mountain to seek Dr. Felch out, but he wasn't there. We really don't have any other recourse, so we came to beg you for a favor!”

While saying that, he dropped down to a knee and appealed humbly, “Please save him, Ms. Felch. The Lindberg family will definitely be thankful to you and remember your kindness forever!”

“Please save him, Ms. Felch!”

All the subordinates followed suit, falling to their knees and imploring Francesca to help.

At that scene, Francesca's heart promptly softened.

It looks like Danrique is really on the verge of dying. If I don't act, death will be inevitable for him. But once I go back, I might very likely fall into the quagmire again. I've only gotten out after much difficulty and started a new life. I no longer want to live in fear, worrying that others will sabotage me. That's especially the case now that I'm a mother and have kids. I want security and stability more than ever. But... can I truly sit back and do nothing? I don't think I'm capable of that.

“Ms. Felch, you once said that saving a life can earn one a lifetime of luck. That aside, you're a doctor and bear the responsibility of healing the sick. You and Mr. Lindberg are also linked by fate, so you can't stand idly by and do nothing when he's now in trouble!”

Sean seemingly clocked her hesitation, for he swiftly pleaded with her, striking while the iron was hot.

“I...” Once more, Francesca plunged into a dilemma.

Just then, Anthony, who was in the house, hurried out to check on the situation upon hearing the commotion. He wanted to stop Francesca from agreeing to the request. We've only managed to leave after much difficulty and start afresh. If she goes back, she'll be embroiled in the mess again!

But at that precise moment, a baby's cry split the air without warning. Jumping in fright, Anthony closed the door posthaste and gestured at Kimberley to take the triplets in to keep them out of sight.

If someone from the Lindberg family learns that Francesca gave birth to Danrique's kids, they'll undoubtedly come and snatch them away!

Outside, Francesca sensed the movements in the house. Thus, she wanted to have Sean and the others leave quickly. Otherwise, things would be troublesome if they were to discover the children's existence.

Therefore, she hastily declared, “Leave first and let me think about it.”

“If you don't agree, Ms. Felch, we'll continue kneeling until you do.”

Sean and the others remained to kneel in front of the door, showing no signs of getting to their feet.

“Cut it out.”NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Francesca was rendered speechless. Gah! They're really persistent. Unfortunately, I can't get them to leave. If they continue staying, things will get tricky if they catch sight of the kids.

“Ms. Felch, Mr. Lindberg said that you'll only be going back this time to treat a patient. When you've done that, it'll be good if you're willing to stay at the Lindberg residence, but if you want to leave, I'll definitely send you back. You won't be forced to do anything.”

Still, Sean continued begging her desperately.

“Danrique said that? Isn't he gravely ill? Yet, he can still talk?” Francesca questioned in surprise.

Sean was taken aback for a moment, and his gaze flickered. But in the next second, he regained his composure. “Yes, Mr. Lindberg said that before he fell unconscious.”

That utterance had Francesca's heart clenching painfully.

Danrique has always been stony and never once begged anyone, but he's actually begging me humbly right now... Perhaps his desire to live forced him to relinquish his dignity, or maybe he wants to see me one final time before he dies. No matter what, since he has made this promise, I'll help him this time.

At that thought, she asserted, “I want to come back right after treating him. There can't be any delays. Can you guarantee that?”

“Yes, yes. Absolutely! I swear that you can go anywhere you want after treating him. In fact, I'll drive you myself!” Sean hurriedly vowed.

“Okay, then. Go down and wait for me at the foot of the mountain. I'll be there after packing for a bit,” Francesca instructed.

“Understood.” Having obtained her promise, Sean promptly went down the mountain with the others.
