Chapter 2178 Escape
The trio began their journey of escape. That night, Monica was given a harsh warning by her superior. She was
suspended from work and forbidden from meddling in matters concerning the royal family of Danontand.
Moreover, they cut off her communication with the media.
Fortunately, Dominic’s involvement in the incident had yet to be discovered. He was merely warned to refrain from
joining Monica’s ruckus. In response, he used the excuse of investigating some other cases and got away with it.
So far, all the information from Robin was with Dominic. The latter could still contact the media.
Although the media had been sternly warned by the FBI and the royal family of Danontand, this could not stop their
ambition to get their hands on breaking news. Though they agreed to behave, they continued to give updates on
the news.
As a result, the plan was still in effect.
However, this meant that Francesca, Monica, and Dominic had to live like fugitives.

Since they still had to look for the right time to save William and the people in the castle, they didn’t leave
Danontand.
Being within the scope of the search, they had to be constantly on the run while looking over their shoulders.
Seven days passed by in the blink of an eye.
News about the Danontand royal family was snowballing as it made its way around the world. Someone even flew a
drone over William Castle to find out what was going on.
The report about the castle being on lockdown was soon proven to be true, so the public’s reaction got even more
heated.
The issue continued to escalate to the point that Federico was dragged into it.
People started to dig up dirt on him. Aside from that, they found out the truth behind the tragic death of William’s
parents and the fact that he was crippled after falling off a horse.
Federico was therefore left with no choice but to open up William Castle and resume its electricity and gas services.
The castle was also provided with food, daily necessities, and a new water supply.
He made the local media record and publicize this entire process and released an explanation as to why the castle

was previously closed off.
With that, Robin and the eighty-three others regained their freedom.
Due to his illness, William remained in the hospital. Federico used his medical treatment as an excuse to keep him
under control.
It was then that Francesca could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Their struggles and effort to save the people in the
castle weren’t in vain, after all.
Now that the enemy knew Francesca and Monica were up to something, they set up heavy security around the
hospital, making it difficult to sneak in again.
Moreover, they were now in hot pursuit of the trio. The three fled nonstop every day. At times, they couldn’t even
get three hours of sleep in a day. To make things worse, Monica’s wound had reopened.
The three of them were utterly exhausted.
On one particular night, Dominic finally managed to find a room in a countryside inn. While Francesca and Monica

took showers and rested, he refueled their car and guarded the door.
Francesca treated Monica’s wound and was about to give the latter some medicine when she noticed there was
none left. She called Dominic, who immediately set out for a pharmacy. Before he left, he reminded them to be
careful.
Fatigued and injured, Monica soon fell asleep.
On the other hand, Francesca was worried that someone would come for them, so she didn’t dare to sleep at all.
She could only lie on the sofa and scroll through her phone while it was charging.
It was her eighth day in Danontand, but Danrique never called or even messaged her.
Only Gordon sent her a text, informing her that his subordinates had found Layla and settled her down in a hospital
in Zarain. He told Francesca not to worry as he had ordered his men to watch over her.
As for Lincoln, he was still negotiating with the people from Riz Corporation. It was a hard task that would require
time, but Riz Corporation likely wouldn’t do anything to Lincoln since they were aware of his connection to
Danrique.
Francesca simply sent Gordon a “thanks” in reply and said nothing else.
She knew very well how difficult it was to snatch someone from Riz Corporation’s hands.
