Chapter 1902

Chapter 1902qThe next morning, Francesca woke up with her face all red and an inexplicable feeling in her chest.
It felt as if her heart was numb and tingling from being shocked by electricity.
That's strange... Why would I have such a strange dream? Even if it is because of the files I was
reading before bed, I should have dreamt of how I could control him and get out of here! Why did it turn
into a wet dream instead?
Francesca blushed even harder at the thought of that as she hugged her pillow and stared blankly into
space.
Her train of thoughts was interrupted when someone knocked on the door and asked, “Are you awake,
Ms. Cece?”
“Yes, I am. Come in,” Francesca replied while stretching lazily.
Norah came in moments later with a few maids and a bunch of new clothes.
Francesca narrowed her eyes and stared at the maids as she asked, “Why am I being given more
clothes again? I haven't even finished trying on the ones in the closet!”
“Mr. Lindberg has prepared some clothes that are more comfortable. You'll be picking out a bridal gown
and accessories today, so you'll be quite busy,” Norah replied with a smile.
Francesca froze. “Huh... Are you serious?”
“The wedding has been announced internally. Mr. Lindberg headed over to the office really early today.
From what I've heard, he's going to announce your wedding during the board meeting!” Norah had a
bright smile on her face and seemed to be in a great mood.Francesca, on the other hand, frowned upon hearing that. She didn't really care when Danrique told
her about it, but she began to panic when she saw how serious he was.
I won't ever be able to escape if word gets out about our marriage! It's a good thing that he's only
announcing it with my fake identity. Nobody knows that I'm Francesco!
“Ms. Cece? Ms. Cece?” Norah called out to her a few times.
“Huh?” Francesca looked up at her after snapping out of her daze.

family? Mr. Lindberg wanted me to ask you this so he could arrange for someone to bring your family
over!” Norah asked with a smile.
“I'm an orphan, so I have no family,” Francesca replied.
“Oh, um...” Norah paused in surprise before flashing her a sympathetic look as she said, “That's all
right, Ms. Cece. We'll be your family from now on.”
Francesca felt a little touched when she heard that. “Thanks!”
“Mr. Lindberg has no family too, so it's nice that you two will have each other.”
Norah patted her on the hand as she continued, “Mr. Lindberg has been left to survive in the streets all
by himself since he was born. Ms. Isabella only found him when he was ten and brought him home.
The Lindberg residence was quite a lively place at the time. There were a lot of people living in the
castle, but then... Everyone started fighting over the position of heir of the family. Fortunately for Mr.
Lindberg, Ms. Isabella was there to protect him. She also had someone teach him the skills necessary
for survival. When Ms. Isabella was no longer able to protect him, those people grew increasingly bold
and used all sorts of underhanded means to get at him. They were so cruel that even I couldn't bear towatch. Sigh... To think that the great Lindberg family would go so far just to take out a sixteen-year-old
boy...”
Norah's eyes reddened at the mention of that, and she quickly tried to change the topic.
“I was in charge of looking after Ms. Isabella at first, but she wanted me to take care of Mr. Lindberg
instead. I've watched him grow up, so I know just how rough his life has been. Outsiders may see him
as a capable and all-powerful man, but he will forever remain a child in my eyes. Because he rarely
speaks or shows emotion, others label him as being cold and merciless. I think he only turned out like
that in order to protect himself and this family. Ms. Isabella once told him that he had to protect this
family and get rid of those evil parasites. She said even the closest of family members and relatives
can become the worst enemies. Mr. Lindberg heeded her instructions and has committed his all into
protecting this family. When Ms. Isabella was gone, Mr. Lindberg lost his only remaining family member
and hasn't smiled ever since. It wasn't until you came into his life that he finally started smiling again.
Ms. Cece, I really hope that you and Mr. Lindberg can live happily together.”
