Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby novel Chapter 2147

Francesca was slightly relieved. I would be happy for Layla and Lincoln if they managed to hide in the mountains.

“It's getting late. You should get ready, Ms. Felch. Mr. Lindberg will pick you up at five o'clock,” Gordon announced as he glanced at his watch. “The styling team is already waiting downstairs.”

“Eh?” Francesca was taken aback. “What styling team? Picking me up to go where?”

“There's a banquet tonight,” Gordon reminded her. “Mr. Lindberg said he was going to bring you. Did you forget?”

“Oh, I think I did,” Francesca recalled upon second thought.

“I will bathe and dress you, Ms. Felch.”

Norah led several maids up the stairs and escorted Francesca back to her bedroom.

“Do I have to go?” Francesca was somewhat averse. “I don't like attending banquets.”

“Mr. Lindberg has made the arrangements. He would not be pleased if you don't go,” Norah said with a chuckle. “You can't escape socializing once you become Mrs. Lindberg.”

Francesca was still declining when a familiar voice sounded. “I am a friend of Ms. Felch!”

Francesca turned around and saw Monica standing outside, holding on to the door for support. Several maids blocked her.

“Monica!” Francesca stood up at once to greet her. “Let her in.”

“Yes, Ms. Felch.” The maids bowed and stood aside.

Monica limped in. “I'm sorry, Ms. Felch,” she said apologetically. “Am I bothering you?”

“No, I'm not doing anything anyway. I was just about to head in for a shower.”

Though Francesca did not like Monica pushing her to deal with William's matter, she could understand the latter. Hence, she treated her as a friend.
