Chapter 1817 Kill You
While Francesca was still trying to figure out a way to get back the necklace, she heard someone
walking over and calling her name.
She immediately put on a mask and opened to door to take a look.
Danrique had changed into a white suit and walked in her direction, looking all suave and debonair.
Gordon and the rest followed right behind him. They were all dressed up for the banquet.
Sean walked up to Francesca and whispered, âDr. Felch, Mr. Lindberg has a mild fever, and his
wound still hurts. Ill need you to change into a fresh pair of clothes and come with us just in case
something goes wrong.â
"Me?" Francesca pointed at herself. âYou mean I must go to the banquet?â
She remembered Prince William told her to stay in her room and not run around, as danger might
lurk in the banquet.
âYes.â Sean nodded. âPlease get changed as soon as possible. Kerrie will come and take you to the
banquet.â
âAll right. I'll go change.â
Francesca was never afraid of danger. In fact, she thought it might be a good opportunity for her to
snatch back the necklace amidst the chaos.
I wouldn't arouse Danriqueâs suspicion should the banquet be chaotic.
âThis is what you'll be wearing for the evening, Dr. Felch.â Kerrie and two maids came into
Francesca's room with an evening gown.
"What the hell is this? I'll wear my dress.â Francesca knitted her brows after seeing that elegant and
elaborate evening gown. âI'll get changed right now. Don't forget to bring along the medical kit.â
âBut...â Kerrie turned to Sean for help.
âDo as she say!â Sean ordered.
"Okay."
After putting on her dress, Francesca wore a new black mask and departed to the banquet with
Kerrie and two bodyguards.
Clad in a black dress and a black mask, she looked like a mysterious woman whose attire did not
seem to match the banquets theme.
All the waiters would give her a weird stare when she walked past them.
But she just ignored their stares and walked straight on.
When Francesca was coming down from the spiral stairs, she bumped into Prince William.
Prince William was surprised to see her there. âFran... Dr. Felch, what are you doing here?â
Prince William had to watch his tone since the Lindbergs were around. But deep in his heart, he
wanted to know why Francesca did not stay in her room. I thought I told you to stay in your room.
Why did you come to the banquet?
âYour Highness, Mr. Lindberg is not feeling well, and he needs Dr. Felch to take care of him,â Kerrie
explained.
âOh, yes. I'll go and take a look at him now.â Francesca then caught up with Sean.
Prince William frowned and ordered his men in a deep voice, âSend someone to protect Francesca
in secret.â
âAll right, Your Highness,â Robin responded.
After a short walk on the lawn, they arrived at the main hall of another villa where the banquet was
taking place.
All the guests held a wine glass and greeted each other while waiting for the host to arrive.
Sean and Francesca entered the villa through a side door. He then brought her to a lounge where
Danrique was taking a break.
Feeling frustrated, Danrique, who had tossed his coat aside, sat on the couch and unbuttoned his
shirt.
His expression looked gloomy as he still had a mild fever.
While Gordon was busy getting someone to adjust the temperature of the aircon, a maid stood
beside Danrique and cooled him down with a fan.
"Water, Sir.â The maid then offered him a glass of water.
Francesca could not keep her eyes from Danriqueâs neck, as she could somewhat see the necklace.
âSir!â The maid once again offered him a glass of water.
Danrique, who had gulped down several glasses of water, got a little annoyed. He stared at
Francesca and asked, âIs your treatment effective? How come I still feel ill?"
âNow you're blaming me?â Francesca voiced her dissatisfaction. âThe treatment would have gone
well had you cooperated with me.â
âHow long more do I have to go through this treatment?â the man asked impatiently.
âIt depends on your condition,â Francesca answered icily. âI'll have to take a look at the snake when I
get back and extract its blood sample to run another lab test.â
âI'll kill you if you can't heal me in seven days!â Danrique warned.
