Chapter 2296
The words reminded Francesca and she murmured, “It can’t be from Danrique, it must be from the President.”
“He actually knows my phone number and knows you’re with me?” Anthony was surprised.
“You and Uncle Lincoln just stepped into the territory of Xendale, and you couldn’t escape his sight.” Francesca’s intelligence suddenly came back, “He should also know that I went back to S Nation with you. So, did he already know that Uncle Lincoln was going to seek revenge on him? Was that press conference also prepared by him on purpose? The purpose was to lure Uncle Lincoln into a trap?”
“It’s horrible.” Anthony felt creeped out, “It feels like all my moves are being watched by others, every single thing those people do and every single word they say is purposeful.”
“Yes.” Francesca covered her forehead, “I need to calm down, calm down, I must calm down, I can’t listen to anyone’s provocations at this time.”
She was now very remorseful, she had been gullible enough to trust the president’s wife in the first place, which was why she had allowed someone to take advantage of the situation and planted evidence to send her to prison, therefore dragging her aunt and Sloan to their deaths.
After a matter of wisdom, she could not be so impulsive again.
“Yes.” Anthony also nodded his head, “Auntie Layla and Uncle Lincoln both approve of Danrique’s character, which means there’s nothing wrong with him, it’s just that he’s in an environment and position that can bring danger to those around him.”
“That should be the case.” Francesca tried to calm herself down.
As she was rambling, William called again, so Francesca informed him about the recording and discussed with him about saving Uncle Lincoln.
As soon as William heard it, he immediately said, “Francesca, this must be a conspiracy by the President, you must not believe it, the recording can be edited, and it is easy to take things out of context.
What’s more, even if those words were really spoken by Danrique, it’s still a tactic, after all, when negotiating with your opponent, you can’t lose your momentum, he can’t just beg the president to release him in a low voice, right?”
“You’re right to say so.” Francesca listened in, “But what now? Is there any other way to save Uncle Lincoln?”
“There’s no way, just wait.” William said.
“How long do we have to wait like this?” Francesca was anxious, “Something has already happened to aunt Layla because of me, I can’t let anything happen to Uncle Lincoln, forget it, I’ll think of a way to save him myself.”
“Francesca, you mustn’t act without permission, you mustn’t be impulsive.” William hurriedly advised, “Last time, Auntie and Sloan were too impulsive and that caused the tragedy, if they could calm down and wait a bit longer, Gordon would have led the men to rescue you.
Gordon and the others are very familiar with the layout and organs of the underground prison and could have prevented the tragedy.
I know you don’t like to hear these words, but I still have to tell you that although you have a lot of magical skills, you will always be no match for the military department.
The whole situation is now very unfavorable to Mr.Lindberg. The president has already gained the upper hand, and if this battle ends up being won by the president and Mr.Lindberg loses, not to mention Uncle Lincoln, you and Anthony, and maybe even the orphans, will all be in trouble.
I’m not being alarmist, this really isn’t an exaggeration at all. You have to understand that once something happens to Mr.Lindberg, the president will eliminate everyone associated with him, leaving no one behind, including Aunt Norah and the maids.
When that happens, the Lindberg family will be bleeding to death, and you and your loved ones and friends will not be spared.”
“Uh…” Hearing these words, Francesca was stunned, she had thought about what the consequences would be if Danrique failed, but in no way did she expect it to be so serious and so cruel.
Now that William had reminded her of this, she realized that she had really thought too simply.
“On the surface it looks as if both sides are just fighting over public opinion and power, but in fact, this is a war!!!”
