“I want to keep Francesca by my side too, but if she's with me, everyone will be in danger,” William said
truthfully.
“You're worried that you'll be in danger, aren't you?” Anthony retorted.
“I'm disabled. There would be no regrets if I died, but there are over a hundred lives that I have to
protect. I am responsible for their well-being. Plus, with my ability now, there is absolutely no way I can
protect Francesca.”
William was honest with his thoughts. There was no use in pretending anymore at a time like that.
“But—”
“William's right,” Francesca cut off Anthony's protest. “Okay, William. I've remembered the second
suggestion. Continue.”
“The third is related to Anthony's question,” William stated calmly. “Concerning your safety, I can show
you a solution. Once you've done the first two things, head for M Nation immediately.”
“M Nation?” Anthony grew restless. “That was where Danrique got hurt, and you're asking her to go to
M Nation?”
“Let me finish.” William remained calm. “Old Mr. Nacht of the Nacht family is experiencing symptoms of
his old ailment and has been looking for a good doctor all over the world. Once you've gone to M
Nation, I will get someone to introduce you to Old Mr. Nacht's butler, Spencer. Tell Spencer your
identity. Once you've gained his approval, you can treat Old Mr. Nacht. Try to stretch the time of
treatment. At least, that way, no one will dare to touch you for some time. If you can gain the trust of
Old Mr. Nacht during the time of treatment and become the family doctor of the Nacht family, that'll be
even better. That way, your safety can be guaranteed forever.”
“Is the Nacht family so powerful that even the president of Erihal wouldn't dare to mess with them?”
Francesca was clueless when it came to power in business.
“As powerful as the Lindberg family is in the north, that's how powerful the Nacht family is in the south.
Originally, the Nacht family and the Lindberg family were equal. However, Lindberg Corporation has
been unstable due to a lot of danger while the Nacht family has always been sturdy. Both these families
are ranked highly globally. No one will dare to mess with them.” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“All right. I got it now.” Francesca took into account all the suggestions.
“Francesca, I'm sorry that I can't protect you,” said William with great remorse. “But the Nacht family
will be a better and safer option in comparison. If you stay by my side, not just the president of Erihal
will be after you, but my grandpa will send you to Xendale at any time to escape any complications.”
“I understand. But would it be safe for Hazel and Mdm. Norah to go with you?”
“After what happened last time, my grandpa and my cousins were criticized by the public, which has
negatively impacted their reputation. For the time being, they won't dare act rashly. Moreover, I've
never intended to steal anything from them. With their own benefit undisturbed, they have no reason to
cause unnecessary conflicts.” William smiled bitterly. “Perhaps I can't live such a luxurious life as I did
before, but at least safety and stability won't be an issue.”
“Okay, then.” Francesca felt a tinge of sadness. “Your legs are actually almost cured. Just make sure
you rest and recuperate. If there's still a chance for us to see each other in the future, I'll continue your
treatment. You can still be cured completely.”
“No rush. My condition is stable right now. Slow recovery doesn't sound like a bad idea either.” William
gave another bitter chuckle. “At least they won't feel threatened when they see me without any
defense.”
Francesca no longer knew what else to say. She could never understand why life is always unfair to
good people.
“Okay. Thank you, William!”
After hanging up the call, Francesca turned to Anthony. “Anthony, bring out my ledger.” Updаted at
