Chapter 2299 Ledger
“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.”
“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 Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
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.
“All right, Francesca, I have to go now. Think about what I’ve said and make your decision as soon as possible.”
“Okay. Thank you, William!”
After hanging up the call, Francesca turned to Anthony. “Anthony, bring out my ledger.”
“Ledger?” Anthony blinked for a couple of seconds before regaining his senses. “I’ll go get it right away.”
Francesca had a thick ledger recording the details of all the patients she had previously treated. Among her many
patients were some with very powerful and rich backgrounds.
