Chapter 1449 Luring Her Out
That night, Charlotte could not sleep at all, eagerly awaiting Hayley’s reply. At the same time, she was also hoping to hear from Ben.
As of that moment, she was certain that Francesco was Alpha, Beta, and Gamma’s mother.
Moreover, Francesco would likely be by Danrique’s side.
Considering the situation at hand, finding Danrique and Francesco was an impossible task.
Therefore, she had no other choice but to lure Francesco out with this method.
During breakfast at six-thirty in the morning, Hayley called. “Charlotte, I went to see the old lady, and she confirmed that Francesco is a girl! Also, she told me that Dr. Felch found Francesco at the foot of the mountain when she was three. He raised her as a boy and often called her a cheeky rascal. Therefore—”
“What’s her name?” Charlotte interjected.
“Dr. Felch named her Francesca Felch. Later on, she changed it to Francesco.”
It all became clear to Charlotte. “I understand. Thank you, Hayley.”
Upon ending the call, she could no longer contain her excitement. By then, she was completely certain that Francesco was her future cousin-in-law.
Back when Francesco treated her, she was unconscious most of the time. Every time she saw Francesco, her face was covered, so she never knew what she looked like.
All this while, I’ve assumed that Francesco is a short and thin man. Never did I expect Francesco to be a woman… After everything we’ve done, I can’t believe we got the wrong gender in the first place. No wonder we couldn’t find her at all.
“Ms. Lindberg, I’ve already posted the notice, so people from all over the world should be looking for her now…” Ben sounded apprehensive. “By doing so, would we be causing Mr. Lindberg trouble? Would his enemies find him because of this?”
“So be it,” Charlotte responded.
“Huh?” That reply left him flabbergasted as he had no idea what she was up to.
“If they do find him, the Nacht family will fight by the Lindberg family’s side,” she declared. “I’m confident that Danrique’s enemies are no match for the combined strength of the Nacht and Lindberg families.”
“That’s true.” When the realization finally struck Ben, he exclaimed, “Ms. Lindberg, you’re brilliant!”
Instead of being overcautious like a coward, Charlotte figured it was better to search for them openly. In the event that they did attract the attention of Danrique’s enemies, the Nachts would fight against them, along with the Lindbergs.
With both families united, they would be invincible.
Regardless of how powerful their enemies were, they had nothing to fear.
“However, I have yet to discuss this with Zachary.” Charlotte was unsettled by the idea still. “Will he be angry?”
“He won’t. As of now, you’re in charge of the Nacht family,” Ben reassured her with a smile. “We will do anything you say.”
As long as Zachary could be cured, they were willing to do whatever it took.
Furthermore, they could use the opportunity to resolve the animosity between the two families. Looking at that matter from that viewpoint, it was a wonderful plan.
“You have to monitor it closely. Let me know right away once you hear something,” Charlotte instructed. “Also, pay particular attention to the triplets. Watch for any stranger who attempts to approach them.”
“Are you saying that Francesco would come and see the children because she’s worried about them?” Ben quickly grasped her plan.
“Yes,” she replied while nodding.
A second later, she added, “She must be in hiding because she’s worried about burdening Danrique. But once she sees the news, I doubt she would be able to hold herself back. Since I’m searching for her so desperately, they could probably guess that something major must have happened. While Danrique can probably tell that I’m doing it for Zachary’s sake, Francesco, as a mother, will surely be worried about her children’s safety. Hence, she would come for them regardless of the consequences.”
“I understand.” Ben was deeply impressed by her. “Ms. Lindberg, this tactic of yours is amazing!”
Charlotte sighed and said, “Now, all we need to do is wait. I hope she shows up as soon as possible, as we are running out of time.”
“What if…” He pondered for a moment and asked cautiously, “What if she doesn’t come over?”
“Don’t worry, I have a backup plan,” she declared confidently. “Robbie has been investigating their whereabouts the whole time. As long as Francesco gets in touch with us, he will be able to pinpoint her location.”
