Chapter 1922
Although Ms.Layla can disguise herself well, she’s injured now.
Besides, Danrique is watching closely.It would be a daunting task to get me away from the Lindberg residence.
In addition, Danrique is cold, ruthless, and vicious.If he catches them, they would be in trouble.
Francesca got a headache from thinking about it.Perhaps it was due to the injury, so she fell asleep unknowingly.
Meanwhile, Danrique had arrived at the castle where Donald had been waiting for him for a long time.
When he saw Danrique, Donald quickly stood up and greeted, "Danrique, you've finally returned!"
"What is it, Uncle Donald?"
Danrique took off his coat and changed his boots before heading toward the study room.
"When Mr.Adams came to the company today, he seems to have fallen for Hazel," Donald uttered anxiously.
"That's—"
"That's good news!" Danrique interrupted.
"Congratulate them on my behalf"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Umm..." Donald was stunned momentarily.
"Danrique, are you joking? Mr.Adams has been vying for Lindberg Corporation's assets.If he were to marry Hazel
and unite the three great families, the Lindberg family will be left standing alone.When that happens, they might
gang up on us."
Danrique went silent after hearing that.
Although he was decisive and competent, he was rather clueless in dealing with schemes and conspiracies
concerning familial matters.He knew Frank well, but he had never taken him seriously.
After all, they had never offended each other, and they never stood in each other's way.
Danrique was supposed to be there to entertain Frank's inspection, but he was caught up by what happened with
Francesca.
Although it was slightly inappropriate, he thought it would be fine, since the other three great families were hosting
the conference.
However, he didn't expect something like that to happen during the conference.
Mr.Adams has fallen for Hazel? Uncle Donald is right, though.
If Mr.Adams were to have a marriage arrangement with the Atkinson family, the three great families will link up
with Mr.Adams.
When that happens, the Lindberg family will get singled out.
The three great families had never been fond of having me at the helm, and they had been trying to kick me out.
However, they are no match for me.
Things might change if they have Mr.Adams backing them.
"Most importantly, the president is getting old, so Mr.Adams is most probably going to be the successor.When that
happens, we won't be able to turn the tide," Donald advised anxiously.
"Danrique, I know you're a proud man, and you've never been a fan of arranged marriages.You have your own
ideas, and you're assertive.Besides, you even have a girl you like.No one has a problem with that.However, you
bear the fate of the Lindberg family on your shoulders, and you are in charge of the future of the Lindberg family.At
this moment, you shouldn't act rashly."
"What are you trying to say?" Danrique furrowed his brows.
"Speak your mind."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Okay.Since you've said so, I shall not beat around the bush."
Donald then uttered in a serious tone, "Danrique, we can't let Mr.Adams marry Hazel.When both their families
joined hands, the Lindberg family is doomed.Everyone knows Hazel is into you.If you were to act now, she will
definitely choose you—"
"Act now? What do you mean?" Danrique interrupted.
"Well, marry Hazel," Donald answered quickly.
"If you don't marry her, Mr.Adams is going to marry her.Since Hazel is the only girl available in the four great
families, she’s very sought-after."
"I'm marrying Cece,"
Danrique answered firmly.
"I'm not going to change my mind." Donald sighed, and he became frantic.
"Even though you like Cece, that doesn't mean you have to marry her.You can just keep her in the castle.Isn't that
the same?"
Upon hearing that, Danrique knitted his brows, and he looked annoyed.
"As the heir of the Lindberg family and the person in charge of Lindberg Corporation, you have the responsibility to
do the right thing.You can't do as you wish—"q
