Chapter 2310 Reconciliation
As Avery was still screaming hysterically, one of the subordinates followed the president’s order by knocking her
unconscious. Throughout it all, the first lady kept mum, staring at the president with mixed feelings.
The president was caught off guard. Feeling extremely embarrassed, he dared not look at his wife and daughter in
their eyes. However, being at a disadvantage, he dared not blame Danrique for that.
“Mr. President, since you’ve made your promise to release Mr. Lincoln, I’ll keep my word and send Mrs. President
and Avery home too.”
Danrique’s tone was flat as if he was chatting casually with his friend. Upon saying that, he put down his cup and
left the place. “Send the guests out.”
“Yes, Sir.” Sean walked in the president’s direction and said, “Mr. President, let me see you and your family to the
door.”
The whole situation was a checkmate. Realizing that, the president could feel his face flush with rage, yet there was

Sean sent them to the car and watched them leave before returning to look for Danrique in the study room on the
second floor. “Mr. Lindberg, they just left.”
Danrique merely hummed and said, “I need you to go over there yourself and get him back safely.”
“Are you worried that the president might play tricks? If so, why didn’t we release Mrs. President and Avery after
ensuring Mr. Lincoln is back safely?” Sean questioned in bafflement.
Danrique responded aloofly, “I’ve asserted my dominance by using the carrot and stick approach, so I tried to cut
him some slack. The president won’t do anything to Mr. Lincoln, but I’m afraid Mr. Lincoln would do something
foolish…”
“Okay, I understand. I’ll do it right away.”
With that, Sean hurriedly left with a few others.
Danrique was satisfied with the outcome of the negotiation that day.
After all, it was a win-win situation for both parties. Both of them had reached an agreement to reconcile by
exchanging hostages. Not only that, they managed to solve the issues with public opinion, returning their
relationship to its initial friendly state.
Since we’ve reconciled, there won’t be a problem anymore.
However, Danrique was perturbed about something else.
Mr. Lincoln wants to avenge Ms. Layla. He won’t give up knowing that his enemy is still out there. I fear that he
might be impulsive when he leaves later! It will be troublesome if that happens. Although the president exercises
forbearance toward me, it doesn’t mean that he’s fine with being the target of assassination. Bullets have no eyes.
It will be uncontrollable if Mr. Lincoln plays with fire. But I suppose the president would be smart enough to
anticipate that. I think he won’t let Mr. Lincoln see him again. Even so, we have to be cautious to avoid it.
At that thought, he decided to play safe by asking Sean to bring a group of people there to pick up Lincoln.
Danrique took a glance at Francesca’s contact on his phone screen. He did not press the call button, nevertheless.
Inwardly, he thought of notifying her only after they took Lincoln home to ease her mind.
“Release him.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe president gave his order on the way home.
“Understood,” his subordinate replied. “Should I send him back to the Lindberg residence?”
“I think Danrique must have asked someone to pick him up.” The president narrowed his eyes. “However, we
shouldn’t skip the formalities. Send him to the entrance of the presidential palace, and I’ll apologize to him there.
Otherwise, he won’t let go of his resentment toward me.”
“What?” The moment his words fell, shock deluged the subordinate. “He attempted to assassinate you. If he sees
you there, I’m afraid he will…”
As he glanced at the president, the subordinate noticed his gaze. With that, he stopped talking and followed his
order immediately.
Later, Francesca was informed that the president would be releasing Lincoln, and she was asked to head over there
to get Lincoln. Overwhelmed with joy, she rushed to the presidential palace together with Justin and his
subordinates.
At the same time, Sean and his people were on their way to the presidential palace as well.
Modern medicine did not seem to work well on Danrique. His wound failed to recover and got worse instead. The
doctor changed the dressing of his wound, prescribed some anti-inflammatory pills, and advised him to rest earlier.
However, Danrique could not fall asleep. He was waiting for Sean to bring Lincoln back so that he could give
Francesca a call.
