Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby (Charlotte and Zachary)

Chapter 2223

Layla shook her head in exasperation. “You're still too young. Do you not understand that it's best not

to have anyone else involved when it comes to romantic relationships? A lot of married couples today

live a happy life at first, but the moment the in-laws get involved and the husband has to sacrifice a lot,

problems start creeping in sooner or later.”

“That won't happen.” Francesca broke into a smile. “Danrique is not so petty. Besides, all that he's

doing now is well within his power.”

“You are still too naïve...” Layla smiled bitterly. “A lot of things might look like it's within his power, but it

could potentially be life-threatening to him in the future. For example, let's say one day the properties of

Lindberg Corporation are split, causing all the shareholders to gang up against Danrique. At that

moment, five percent of the share will be the key to tip the scale.”

“So you're saying that the five percent of shares that he gave Federico might be his demise in the

future?” Francesca gaped.

“Exactly.” Layla nodded solemnly. “Also, now that he's trying to save Mr. Lincoln and has offended Riz

Corporation, they might add fuel to the fire if he ever gets into trouble.”

Francesca was becoming increasingly unsettled by each word spoken by Layla. “So you're saying that Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

all of these could have serious complications...”

“Too many complications.” The frown on Layla's forehead grew tighter. “Danrique must care for you a

lot. Otherwise, he wouldn't get himself into so much trouble, considering the fact that he's well aware of

the consequences. What he's doing now is no different from installing multiple ticking-time bombs that

could go off at any second!”

“Now that you've told me all of this, I—”

Guilt overwhelmed Francesca like never before. She had never known that the things Danrique had

done for her would lead to so many discreet issues.

Consumed by worry, she quickly asked another question, “Ms. Layla, the chances of those

complications happening are not high, right?”

“I can't say.” Layla shook her head slightly. “The stakes are like a predisposing factor to a disease. Can

you tell, as a doctor, when the disease will present itself?”

That single question left Francesca without a retort.

“If the consequences blow up in his face, they will have a negative impact on your relationship.” Layla

gave Francesca a kind warning. “Only when the lives of two people are going smoothly can they date in

peace. If life is not going well and they spend most of their time worrying about staying afloat, how

could they go on dates at all? Moreover, the two of you are carrying so much on your shoulders. When

trouble really comes, you'll have to take care of your own responsibilities. Love would have to be set

aside by then.”

When Francesca heard that, she fell silent. She had been too naïve in the past to think that love was

enough to maintain a relationship. She finally realized how much more complicated marriage would be.

“If it weren't for us and for the problems we're facing, things would have been so much simpler for you.”

A hint of guilt pinched Layla's heart. “It would be easier for a person to leave a relationship if there's no

feeling of guilt, but now, you're becoming more and more indebted to him.”

“You're right...” Francesca mumbled as guilt and shame continued to weigh on her heart. “I owe

Danrique too much this time for helping William.” Drąмanоvels.com

“Yes, I know.” Francesca bobbed her head up and down. “I'll remember the lesson. I promise not to do

it again.”
