Chapter 1890 Be Wary
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.
âCece...â 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 Evaâ's mind, if she could use Francesca to approach Danrique, that would be for the
best.
"Greetings, Ms. Cece!â Hazel stood up and greeted. Unlike Eva's enthusiastic greeting, hers was
more polite and composed.
âGreetings!â Francesca politely replied to both of them before sitting on a nearby couch.
Eva approached her and whispered next to her gossipingly, âAre you all right, Cece? I heard
someone attempted to kill you last night. I was freaked out when I woke up. What exactly
happened?â
âI'm not so sure myself. Your uncle had probably told you the story.â Francesca looked at her with a
half-smile. âIn any case, someone is trying to hurt me. You should be careful and keep your distance
from me, just in case.â
âUgh...â Eva was a little scared when she heard that. âI think so too. I met you twice, and both times I
got into trouble.â
âYou 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.â
âDo you know who hurt you?â
âNo idea.â Francesca turned to Danrique. âHe's probably investigating it.â
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, âWho's that guy?â
âThe master of one of the four great families, Mr. Harrington.â Eva covered her mouth and spoke at
a low volume. âIn the four great families, the Lindberg family sits at the top spot while the
Harrington family sits on the second. His father passed away when he was young, so heâs the only
member of his family. Right now, heâs in control of the Harrington family. The share he held in
Lindberg Corporation is twenty percent, which makes him the second-biggest shareholder in the
company...â
"He doesn't like Danrique?â Francesca didn't beat around the bush.
âShh!â Eva swiftly reminded, âKeep your voice down.â
She glanced at Harrier timidly and lowered her voice. âMr. 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.â
âSince Danrique is the CEO, thus making the Lindberg family the most powerful one in Lindberg
Corporation, can't he just keep Harrier in line?â Francesca asked in a small voice too. âIt seems like
the others are afraid of him.â
"While Mr. Harrington possesses fewer shares compared to Mr. Lindberg, he has more supporters
on his side. Both the Atkinson and Yarrow family are on his side, so even Mr. Lindberg has to mind
what he does and can't just burn his bridges with Mr. Harrington.â Eva uttered carefully, âIn any
case, you must never mess with this guy. Also, heâs super perverted and super crafty. Be careful
around him.â
"Got it.â Francesca glanced at Harrier and requested, âSince it's still early, how about we take a walk
outside?â
