“Mr. Lincoln has shortlisted a few foundations and plans to embark on a field trip to inspect them, so he’ll be away during this period. Meanwhile, I have to keep an eye on the orphanage to prevent Chrono and his men from laying their fingers on the children. That means you have to take care of Francesca.”
