Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby novel Chapter 2064

Francesca’s place was quite some distance away from the airport, so she had to speed down the road the entire journey. Only then would she be able to make it to the airport in under thirty minutes.

I have to hurry, or that lunatic, Chrono, might do something crazy.

Francesca thought about the explosion at the orphanage and felt her heart aching.

She was moving out of the way of a truck when Anthony called her. Hence, she didn't pick up. It wasn't until she was on the highway and things were much calmer that she finally returned his call.

“Hey.”

“Where are you?”

It was noisy on Anthony's side, and she could hear children crying.

“I'm at the airport. How are things at the orphanage? Are there any casualties? Is anybody hurt?”

Francesca's heart clenched as she spoke, “The explosion happened in the parking lot near the orphanage. It didn't take place in the orphanage itself, and a few kids fell out of their bunk beds because they were scared. Other than that, no one was injured.”

“The parking lot?” asked Francesca. She was temporarily stunned. “Then the kids are all okay?”

Francesca sighed a breath of relief. Thank the heavens that Chrono isn't a total monster and didn't actually go after the kids.Still, I bet that little conscience he has will fade away if I didn't show up at the airport on time.

“Where are you now? Come here quick,” said Anthony in a worried tone. “Chrono must be trying to force your hand by threatening the kids’ safety...”

The line was cut off before he could finish talking.

Francesca didn't pay much attention to that. She assumed that it was because he was too busy and accidentally hit the button that ended the call. It was also possible that the signal was poor, so she wasn't overly worried.

She simply grabbed her bag and her phone, then hurried into the airport.

The departure hall was filled with tourists at the time, but Chrono was nowhere to be found.

Francesca was confused and was just starting to wonder what was going on when she suddenly sensed a hostile aura closing in on her. She turned around immediately.

A woman in an all-black outfit, a cap, and a face mask was standing right behind her. The former had a pair of eyes that glowed with menace.

Francesca narrowed her eyes a little to scan the person in front of her. She looked into her opponent's eyes. “It's you?”

She is Chronos ally, the assassin who faked being a doctor when we met at the hospital.

“Nice. You have great observational skills,” said the assassin, who smiled soon after. “Here. We got your plane ticket ready. Let's go.”

She was going to force Francesca to check in for departure right away.

“Where is Chrono? Why isn't he here?” demanded Francesca. She could somewhat sense that something was off.
