Danrique's voice sounded from the phone's speaker. “I just saw your message. What's the matter?”
“Did you go to M Nation with Hazel?” Francesca questioned him.
He fell silent for a few moments before answering in a deep voice, “Yes.”
Enraged, she snapped at him frantically, “Danrique, first, you left without informing me, then you went
to M Nation with Hazel. What is this all about?”
He explained patiently, “I'm here to handle some work-related matters. It doesn't matter who's with me
on this business trip.”
“Then why did you hide this from me if it doesn't matter? If it doesn't matter, why did you leave without
telling me?” Francesca grew more agitated as she spoke.
She could not fathom his behavior. He could've told me if he was really there because of work. Why did
he feel the need to hide this matter from me?
“I have things to do at the moment. I'll talk to you later.”
Danrique did not provide her with a straightforward answer.
“Danrique, if you dare to hang up on me—”
He hung up the phone before she could finish her sentence.
Francesca almost thought her ears were playing tricks on her. She lowered her phone and stared at the
screen blankly. When she regained her senses and realized that he had hung up on her, she nearly
exploded with rage.
Sloan stared at her timidly via the rearview mirror. He wanted to comfort her but didn't know what to
say.
Francesca remained utterly depressed when she arrived home. Just as she was about to go upstairs,
Monica called out to her, “Ms. Felch!”
“Monica, why are you here? Did something happen to William?”
Monica shook her head. “No, that's not it. His Highness is very well. I came here to give you this.”
She took out an exquisite lunchbox and opened it, revealing the angel food cakes inside. “His Highness NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
taught me how to make these. He told me you like to eat these, so I brought some for you.”
“Thank you.” Francesca was touched as she looked at the angel food cakes neatly arranged in the
lunchbox. “Come upstairs and take a seat.”
“Okay, sure.”
Monica followed Francesca upstairs. Norah served them refreshments and swiftly left the room.
Upon returning to the room, Monica updated Francesa on William's condition, telling Francesca that
William was doing very well that day and that he even attempted to sit upright. Although he felt
uncomfortable after sitting for a short while, he was undoubtedly in better shape than the past few
days.
Francesca informed Monica that William's illness needed to be treated slowly, so he required more time
to heal.
