Once the car went into the theater, Sloan, Mylo, and the other subordinates escorted her into the
building.
Danrique had already arrived in the VIP lounge. He was currently chatting with Donald and Harrier
about work. Sitting quietly at the side were Hazel and Eva. Both of them were staring at Danrique with
admiration.
Francesca was stunned. She thought it was just going to be her and him, yet he brought so many
people with him, including Hazel.
“Cece...” Eva greeted enthusiastically when she saw Francesca.
As the saying went, the enemy of my enemy was my friend. Compared to Francesca, Hazel was the
greater threat in Eva's eyes.
If Hazel married Danrique and united the two families, then there was nothing Donald could do.
However, Francesca was a nobody, so Donald could still get rid of her.
Of course, in Eva's mind, if she could use Francesca to approach Danrique, that would be for the best.
“Greetings, Ms. Cece!” Hazel stood up and greeted. Unlike Eva's enthusiastic greeting, hers was more
polite and composed.
“Greetings!” Francesca politely replied to both of them before sitting on a nearby couch.
Eva approached her and whispered next to her gossipingly, “Are you all right, Cece? I heard someone
attempted to kill you last night. I was freaked out when 1 woke up. What exactly happened?”
“I'm not so sure myself. Your uncle had probably told you the story.” Francesca looked at her with a
halfsmile. “In any case, someone is trying to hurt me. You should be careful and keep your distance
from me, just in case.”
“Ugh...” Eva was a little scared when she heard that. “I think so too. I met you twice, and both times I
got into trouble.”
“You made yourself drunk the first time. That doesn't have anything to do with me. However, I did
involve you in the mess last night. Thankfully, we're both unhurt.”
“Do you know who hurt you?" “No idea.” Francesca turned to
Danrique. “He's probably investigating it.”
At that moment, Danrique was listening to Donald's report.
Harrier was enjoying his wine elegantly. When he saw Francesca had arrived, he smiled at her warmly
and even raised his wine cup to greet her.
Francesca stared at him deeply and asked, “Who's that guy?”
“He doesn't like Danrique?” Francesca didn't beat around the bush.
“Shh!” Eva swiftly reminded, “Keep your voice down.”
She glanced at Harrier timidly and lowered her voice. “Mr. Harrington is ten years older than Mr.
Lindberg. Eleven years ago, when the incident at the Lindberg residence occurred, Mr. Lindberg was
still young. The shareholders in the company suggested making Mr. Harrington the CEO of the
corporation. However, Mr. Lindberg, who was only sixteen that year, forcefully snatched that position
away, angering Mr. Harrington as a result. Both of them butt heads against each other ever since. Mr.
Harrington never stopped giving Mr. Lindberg a hard time, but Mr. Lindberg always solved any
problems thrown at him with no issue. It enraged Mr. Harrington because it meant he couldn't get any
dirt on Mr. Lindberg. While both of them appeared to be getting along with each other on the surface,
they were actually battling against each other to the death underneath. This is something everyone
knows about.” Content of Draмovels.com
“Got it.” Francesca glanced at Harrier and requested, “Since it's still early, how about we take a walk
outside?”
