Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Chapter 2203 Sweet And Blissful Francesca gazed up at the building in front of her. âThis building is all mine?â she asked, dumbfounded. âThe whole place is your workshop,â Sloan replied with a grin. âThere are seven floors. We had it made exactly like how buildings that host traditional medicine would look like. Go on in and take a look.â
Feeling touched, the woman strode into the building. Every part of it was made with the finest quality wood, and walking inside here made one feel as though they were actually inside a traditional medicine hall.
âItâs perfect!â Francesca gushed. âThis is everything I wanted in a dream workshop!â She had long yearned for a workshop like thisâone that contained an array of materials to create herbal concoctions, not to mention all those precious medicinal books.
Although she did have a workshop back in S Nation too, it was a room so tiny that she could only keep some common herbs. Moreover, all the shelves had been filled to the brim, and they looked messy all the time as she never bothered tidying them.
But this place⦠Every part of it belongs to me? I can now keep all the herbs and materials I want, and I can even run experiments on the other floors. Oh, God!
The woman was moved to tears. How did Danrique know Iâve always wanted a workshop? I never told him about this.
âDo you like it, Ms. Felch?â Sloan asked in anticipation. âIs there anything you want us to fix?â
âI do. I love it so much,â Francesca answered while feeling a lump in her throat. âYou donât have to change a thing.
Now, thereâs just one more thing left that we need.â
âThe herbs?â Gordon asked, smiling. âWeâve taken care of that. The goods should arrive from Zarain within the next two days. Youâll receive a portion of everything thatâs available on the market, and if there are other herbs you want that we canât buy, give us a checklist. Iâll get someone to find them.â
âYou guys are so thoughtful.â Francesca reached for the shelves before running her fingers across a desk, her eyes brimming with tears.
âItâs Mr. Lindberg whoâs thoughtful,â Gordon said. âHe told Sean to find a well-known architect to design this building, and construction began right after all the materials from Zarain had arrived. Look, everything is almost complete. Weâre just waiting for the herbs now.â
âI canât believe it.â Emotions surged within Francesca. âHe never told me anything.â
âMr. Lindberg has always been the type who works in the shadows.â Just as Gordon spoke, a subordinate came over to report, âMr. Lindberg has returned.â
âThat was fast.â Gordon was visibly surprised. âI thought heâd be late, considering all the issues at work.â
âWhat issues?â asked Francesca.
âUh⦠Wellâ¦â The man dared not answer.
âItâs okay. Iâll go ask him.â
With that, Francesca hurried over to where Danrique was and leaped into his arms like an elated child as soon as he stepped out of his vehicle.
âBe careful with your leg!â the man exclaimed while gazing at her lovingly.
âThank you!â Standing on her toes, Francesca began to peck him on the chin. âI just had a look at the workshop. Itâs beautiful!â
Danrique clicked his tongue in displeasure. âSo you only came running into my arms because I built you that workshop?â
The woman giggled. âBut I love it so much. Let me kiss you!â
She jumped and tried to reach for his lips.
Yet, the man deliberately kept his head high. âI wonât let you kiss me, shorty.â
âYouâre so annoying!â
Francesca then climbed onto him like a monkey and bit him.
Laughter ensued among the two.
Danrique held her by the waist and carried her back into the house.
It was a sweet and blissful sight.
Everyone at the scene felt happy for them.
Norah, in particular, couldnât stop beaming.
Meanwhile, in the castle not far away, William sat in his wheelchair while observing the spectacle from a distance.
He couldnât hear what they were saying, but he could certainly see how affectionate Danrique and Francesca were with each other.
How lucky.
Curling his lips slightly, he looked down with a frosty gaze.
