Chapter 2195

Chapter 2194 Conscience Federico went silent for a while. I’m being extorted again. Despite his thought, Federico forced a smile and said, “Thank you.” Francesca replied, “You’re welcome.”

Before she could say anything further, Federico quickly uttered, “It’s getting late. Go home and rest early, okay?”

He couldn’t wait to get rid of the sly couple. One is even more terrifying than the other! “All right. I wanted to tell you it seems like your organs aren’t doing well, so I wanted to give you some medicines for—”

Before Francesca could finish her sentence, Danrique pushed her into the car.

“Your Majesty, she’s still too young to understand certain things. Please forgive her. It’s not even that hard to detoxify the poison. She can’t possibly demand such fees,” Danrique uttered.

“Oh! That’s true.” Federico was elated to hear that. Just as he thought he could save some money, Danrique suddenly said, “You don’t have to pay her so much. Inclusive of William’s medical fees, a billion will do.”

“Huh?” Federico had no idea how to react to that.

“Do you have her bank account details?” Danrique asked while pointing at Silas.

“I do…” Silas nodded immediately.

“Remember to transfer the money to her by tonight. Otherwise, she’s going to kick up a fuss.” Danrique deliberately put on an exasperated expression as he sighed and grumbled, “She’s so hard to please!”

“All right. Got it,” Silas replied.

“I’ll go now.” Danrique got into the car.

Federico was struggling to keep the smile on his face. Right when the smile was about to fade, Danrique rolled down the car window and stuck his head out. “Also, Your Majesty, no matter what, Prince Charlie is still your grandson. Don’t be too harsh on him, all right? Release him in two weeks’ time before something bad happens to him.”

“Okay. I know what to do.” Federico’s smile was turning ugly. Gritting his teeth, he said, “Have a safe trip!”

“Goodbye!” Danrique rolled up the window.

After that, the car slowly departed. As the vehicle was driving away, Francesca’s delighted laughter could be heard emanating from inside.

Hearing that, Federico became outraged. He clenched his fists so tightly that they creaked.

Silas quickly comforted him by saying, “Calm down, Your Majesty. After all, we’ve received a tremendous gift from Mr. Lindberg.”

“You’re right…”

After getting into the car, Francesca smiled from ear to ear while looking at those checks. The pain in her head and legs went away in an instant. In fact, all her aches and pains had disappeared.

In other words, she was overjoyed.

Danrique couldn’t help but smile when he saw how silly she looked.

“Wait a minute…” Francesca suddenly remembered something. She pulled Danrique closer and asked, “What gift did you give Federico? Why is he so happy?”

“Don’t worry about that.” Danrique ruffled her hair and added, “What matters is your happiness!”

“Tell me, will you?” Francesca was growing anxious. “Answer me this. Is the gift worth more than what I got in return?”

“Ha!” Danrique chuckled. “What you got in return is nothing compared to what I’ve given him. I merely wanted you to be happy, so I had him compensate you a little.”

“What did you say?” Francesca widened her eyes in shock. “One billion is nothing? Are you saying that you’ve given him—”

She placed a hand over her chest and tried to calm her breathing. “Did you give him ten billion?”

“Let’s not talk about money.” Danrique smiled. “Moreover, a person of his status can’t be satisfied with monetary gifts.”

“What did you give him, then?” Francesca shook his arm and said, “Tell me!”

“Stop asking me that. All you need to know is that your hubby would never be taken advantage of.”

“All right, then.” Francesca breathed a sigh of relief. However, she regained her senses and asked, “What? Hubby?”

“After everything that I’ve done for you, are you still not going to marry me?” Danrique pretended as if he was going to snatch those checks away. “If you don’t marry me, you ought to compensate me!”

“I will! I will!” Francesca hurriedly kept the checks inside her pocket. “Since you’ve already done so much for me, I’ll definitely marry you. My conscience wouldn’t allow me to do otherwise.”
