Chapter 1803

Chapter 1803 Become Stronger “I shall leave first if there’s nothing else.”

Francesca grabbed her medical bag and turned to leave.

“Francesca…” William called out, hoping that she wouldn’t leave so soon. “Can you stay a little longer?”

“I can’t. Danrique is having a fever, and I need to go back and check up on him,” Francesca replied directly before continuing, “Oh, regarding your leg, it can be treated, but I need to think of a way. I will let you know once I think of something.”

After the woman finished speaking, she returned the check to Robin and said, “You can pay me after treatment starts.”

“It’s all right, Dr. Felch. You can take the money first. If you need any more help, please feel free to let me know…”

“I won’t accept anything I’ve not earned.”

Francesca shoved the check back into the man’s hand and left without a backward glance.

William could not help but feel slightly disappointed as he watched the woman walk away.

Noticing that, Robin quickly tried to comfort the man. “Your Highness, please don’t worry. Francesco… No, Dr. Felch is only behaving this way because she has lost her memory. When she recovers, she will treat you as well as she did last time.”

“Yup.” William nodded and said, “You’re right. I’m sure she will…”

“However, we would still have to account to Mr. Lindberg,” Robin said awkwardly. “Earlier on, Sean kept asking me about Francesco’s whereabouts, but I’ve followed your instructions and tried to avoid the topic. I could feel that he is starting to get suspicious. After all, given your relationship with Mr. Lindberg, there’s no need for us to avoid discussing it. Will they think that we are harboring ulterior motives?”

“I don’t think so, since there’s no conflict of interest between us,” William replied with a smile. “Most likely, they are trying to find Francesca to treat Danrique, but they are unaware that Dr. Felch is actually Francesca. Besides, given that Francesca is already treating Danrique, his condition is not going to worsen. As such, it’s unlikely that any conflict would arise between us because of this.”

“That makes sense.” Robin nodded before continuing, “Then, if Sean asks me about it again, I’ll just tell him that Dr.

Felch has exceptional medical skills, and with her treating Mr. Lindberg, there’s nothing they have to worry about.”

“Yup.” William nodded. “Francesca has always liked keeping a low profile. She doesn’t like people finding out her true identity. As such, when she was getting rid of the poison for me previously, she had already made me promise not to divulge her secret.”

“Yeah. After all, the lives of many big shots are in her hands. Sometimes, when the enemies of those important people have no means of laying their hands on them, they might target Dr. Felch instead, such as the cruise ship incident…”

Robin had a serious look on his face as he spoke.

“Those people were coming after me in the first place. They thought that if they killed Francesca, no one would be able to treat me, and I would be wheelchair bound for the rest of my life. If that happened, I wouldn’t be able to succeed to the throne.”

At that thought, William’s gaze turned cold. “Since young, I’ve stayed a low profile and tried my best to put up with them. However, they are still not willing to let me off.”

“Perhaps, it’s like what Madam said, problems won’t go away just because we keep trying to avoid them. One would only be able to protect themselves and their family if they are strong enough to do so,” Robin reminded softly.

“That’s right.” William nodded firmly. “I need to become stronger, so that I can protect Francesca. I will let those people know that I’m not someone they can easily take advantage of!”

“Hence, getting Mr. Lindberg on our side is our best choice…” Robin steered back to the earlier topic. “We must never offend him.”

“I know. I will give him an explanation personally tomorrow,” William nodded before turning to look at the door and said, “I wonder when Francesca would remember me…”

After Francesca returned to her room and was about to rest, Kerrie showed up, looking for her. “Dr. Felch, Mr.

Lindberg’s fever has already reached a hundred and one.”

“Get my medical kit ready.”

Francesca arrived at Danrique’s room at once. After taking his temperature, she fed him some medicine…

After a series of procedures, Francesca asked Sean in a straightforward manner, “What chemicals did you guys feed the snake with? It’s causing the poison to act unpredictably.”

“I can’t explain it clearly to you right now. I can show you the formula when we get back.” With a solemn expression on his face, Sean asked, “What’s his condition now? It is very serious?”
