Chapter 2332
Mylo hastily drew people forward to assist in a panicked yet cautious manner, afraid of upsetting the three kids. The children looked so cute and delicate that those carrying them treated them like they were made of glass.
Danrique felt an indescribable feeling in his heart as he stared at the three adorable kids.
He had envisioned having children in the future but never thought the time would arrive so unexpectedly and without any prior notice.
Like a bolt from the blue, the three little ones appeared out of nowhere and entered his life, and just like that, he became a father.
Danrique's mind was in a daze. He looked at the three children as if he was gazing at something precious. Suddenly, he felt that he had gained an additional weakness. Although familial affection was subtly spreading through his heart, what he felt more was a type of fury!
Francesca bore me three kids, but I knew nothing about it?
"Sean!" he bellowed.
"Yes, Mr. Lindberg." Sean hurriedly handed the children to several female employees before running to Danrique.
The latter stared into his eyes. "Have you long known about this?"
"I..." The question caused Sean to feel flustered, and his gaze flitted around.
"I see." Inferring the answer from Sean's evasive gaze, Danrique turned to look at Gordon. "What about you?”
"I..." Gordon hurriedly lowered his head, not even daring to let out a loud breath.
Danrique's expression darkened as he uttered through gritted teeth, "You all knew it but chose to hide it from me. How dare you!"
"Please calm down, Mr. Lindberg."
Gordon hastily went down on a knee. He parted his lips but did not know how to explain it, for anything he uttered would seem like an excuse at that moment. "It's my fault." Sean stepped forward and admitted his mistake. "I told Gordon to hide it from you because—"
A powerful kick from Danrique sent him flying before he could finish, leading him to slam into the
conference table and topple a row of bookcases before crashing to the ground.
He spewed blood and clutched at his chest, writhing in pain.
Witnessing the scene, the three children were so frightened that they started wailing. Their little faces were flushed red, and their big watery eyes filled with fear. Danrique was about to lose his temper again but seeing the children's reactions, he held back his anger and instructed, "Take good care of the children!"
He then turned on his heel and left, angrily calling Francesca as he walked away.
The call went through, but no one answered.
Once again, Danrique became furious. He kicked over his desk when he returned to his office, spilling the documents on it all over the floor. A recording pen with the words "d*mned woman" also fell off with them.
He picked up the recording pen and played the only recording inside, listening to the familiar voice coming from it.
"I, Francesca Felch, swear to repay Rogue for saving my life. If I can't repay him, I'll devote myself to him. If I go back on my words, let me die a horrible death!"
Her voice brought back memories of earlier times when they were together. With mixed emotions stirring within him, he immediately sent the recording to her.
From there, memories were hidden away, and time fast-forwarded to six months later...
Danrique went through all kinds of hardships within those six months. Once again, Francesca came to his aid when he was in danger and helped him get through them. She also inadvertently saved Zachary.
Nevertheless, once everything was settled, Francesca ran away again, for she did not wish to live a life filled with fear and deception anymore.
Fortunately, because of Charlotte and the six children, Danrique and Zachary miraculously went from enemies to friends during the dispute.
The long-running feuding Lindberg and Nacht families began to work hand in hand to dominate the corporate world, and from then on, no one dared to provoke them.
