Chapter 1017: My Fabulous Girl Boss
When Danrique passed through the hall, he saw there were still a few well-dressed aristocratic ladies who were waiting for their turn. Aside from Hazel, the three great families also planned to introduce a few more ladies to Danrique.
The families didn’t expect the banquet to go wrong before the ladies could show up.
At that moment, there was no one else but Francesca in his eyes.
Upon getting into the car, he examined her. “Are you all right?”
“My head’s spinning…” Francesca weakly lay in her seat.
“Call Dr. Killian,” Danrique ordered.
“No need!” She stopped him. “I’m just a little frightened. That’s all. I’ll be fine once I sleep.”
“Really?” He stared at her clear eyes.
“Mhm.” She nodded.

“Didn’t we meet on a mountain?” Francesca replied casually, “It’s been a long time. Who would’ve remembered?”
There was a subtle change in Danrique’s look when he heard that. Ultimately, he chose to stay silent.
She was quite annoyed he refused to answer her question about Hazel truthfully, so she turned her head away and ignored him.
They didn’t say a word to each other on the way back.
Upon arriving home, he wanted to carry her down from the car, but she got off by herself and headed straight into the castle.
He furrowed his eyebrows as he stared at her back and ordered, “Go investigate.”
“Roger!” Sean replied. He was smart, so of course, he knew what Danrique was thinking.
Francesca was still huffing slightly when she returned to her room. Soon after, she returned to her senses. Wait, why am I angry? I’m just pretending to be his fiancée. It’s not real. He can love whoever he wants. Besides, I’ll be leaving sooner or later…
When her train of thought ended there, she crawled up and put all the delicate jewelry in the jewelry box into a bag.
Then she retrieved her backpack from the ceiling of the restroom and shoved the jewelry bag into the backpack. I have to find a way to leave here as soon as possible. No more delays…
Inside the study, Danrique was drinking a cup of cold wine. He stared at the old photo on his pocket watch. Then, he superimposed Cece’s image on Francesca’s appearance in his mind. Both of them should be the same person, so why didn’t she remember? Additionally, her eyes were no longer simple and pure, like back then. The current her has a sharp look, knows how to disguise herself, and even scheme… Is she really Cece?
