Rickard closed his laptop and looked at Hesper with his deep-set eyes. "Something was missing from the information Keith provided yesterday. Did you notice it?""...Missing?" Hesper thought about it, but she had been so focused on the drugs Nathaniel brought over before and had only roughly heard. She shook her head. "The trick Ranfik used to attract those people was giving away it for free, but don't forget where we are."Hearing Rickard's words, Hesper immediately realized what happened. Yes! She kept having a feeling the people chose to support the Mustafas because they were offering free and risk-free trials. That didn't sound like an issue, but it was Leafdelle. They didn't need the money, so if they ignored the safety of the elders because of this little bit of money, they wouldn't have requested drugs from her. "Someone is convincing people Ranfik's medication has the best effects."Rickard mentioned a few names. Hesper had always been more sensitive when it came to nam

Hesper was relieved to not be questioned, so she didn't say anything more. The problem with the medication was temporarily resolved. Nathaniel was still hiding behind Ranfik, but Hesper would never let him get in the way of her plan. Fortunately, Ranfik and Nathaniel didn't have an equal partnership. If the medication plan fell apart again, Nathaniel would get into an argument with Ranfik, and that was when Hesper would strike. "Speaking of Nathaniel, someone else came to my mind." Hesper was a little anxious. "Someone is behind him. We don't know who that person is yet, but they have their eyes on Ren."Hesper didn't have time to take care of Renfrew because she was busy with everything that was happening at Leafdelle. "Ren is fine."Hesper was reassured when Rickard said that, then he continued. "You asked Isaac to go into hiding with Renfrew and I sent Kenji to keep an eye on them secretly. If something happens, he'll report it to me immediately. Hesper was amused when s

Rickard saw her being silent and knew she had an idea, but it didn't look like she planned to tell him. He was slightly annoyed but didn't want to force it out of her. She would tell when she was ready. Meanwhile, since Hesper had ideas, she wouldn't let go of this opportunity, as Ranfik's feelings for her might not last for long. She needed to get things moving as soon as possible. She held Rickard's hand. "I need to go see Camille. Don't wait for me." She turned around and left before he could reply. "I have a feeling it's nothing good."Sighing quietly, Rickard watched as she walked away and suddenly realized he had never seen Hesper like that before. She used to have few words but was a strong woman. When she returned to the Lane family, she seemed to have grown thorns. The current Hesper seemed to have returned to when she was younger. She would look at him with clear eyes and wouldn't hide anything from him. She was the only rose he would patiently wait for. ***Hesp

Hearing that, Hesper went into a serious mood, then Camille continued. "I heard they were looking for someone. I didn't hear the name of that person, but that someone was from the Lane family. I don't know the name, but… some coincidences aren't coincidences."Hesper frowned. Lane could be spelled differently, but Camille was right. If the Mustafas were looking for a Lane, it was possibly related to her. …Could it be her father?There were a lot of things that Ranfik knew that she didn't. There might be some clues to help her find her father. Ranfik knew her motive for coming to the island, so it would make sense if he was trying to use Benjamin to threaten her. "Thanks, that was important information."Camille shook her head. "I didn't help much. Ever since I got to the island, you've managed everything. I'm doing whatever I can to fulfil my promise to Aunt Etty. Aunt Etty? Hesper paused, then quickly realized Aunt Etty was probably Rickard's mother and not Pierette. Hesper s

Because of Hesper and Ranfik's argument last time, they didn't manage to pick a wedding dress, so they still went to the bridal shop. Camille wasn't really interested in marrying Ranfik. Hesper promised she would settle everything before their wedding, so she wasn't paying a lot of attention while picking her dress. No one there was focused on the wedding dress. Camille picked one that looked the most expensive because it was Ranfik's money. She wanted to feel cathartic about it. Remembering the previous event, Hesper had a bad impression of the place, but fortunately, Camille knew what was on her mind and talked about getting out of there soon. Ranfik looked like he had a lot of time on his hands as he followed them around. Camille seemed to be used to buying things after quickly browsing. Ranfik stood next to Hesper. "If there's anything you like, we can bag it too, Ms. Rivera. We'll send all of it to the Savatier estate."Hesper forced a smile. "I can buy it myself. You g

After getting what they wanted, Hesper and Camille were very quiet for the rest of the time. Ranfik's assistant didn't say anything because he saw that his boss was quiet. Thus, they spent the afternoon burning money in silence. Camille's taste was wicked. Hesper would think hard before getting everything she wanted because most of the things were useless and were sold at a much higher price than their actual value. However, Camille was on a mission to spend Ranfik's money. Even if she didn't bankrupt him, she wanted to annoy him. When the two women returned to Savatier estate, the day had turned into night. Hesper didn't tell Rickard where she went because she felt guilty. Fortunately, he didn't ask her and gave her total freedom. However, Lamarie went to see her that night and was amused by her expression. Hesper didn't understand her expression. She turned around and saw Rickard going upstairs. Lamarie walked over after that. "Delphine came over again, and since you weren'

Rickard fell silent. Although he wanted to tell Hesper she was the one who kept cutting him off, when he saw how defeated she looked, he changed his mind. "I have a question." Hesper just felt embarrassed because she thought about what to say on the way up. Just when she figured out how to tell Rickard about it, that happened. "Even though it was a little awkward, I strongly considered every word I said. I don't want to hide anything from you."Rickard wasn't laughing but Hesper felt he was mocking her through his eyes, so she was embarrassed. "That's what I came up with. It wasn't exactly sexpionage. Ranfik is too easily tricked."Hesper had a feeling Ranfik would change his attitude toward Nathaniel with just a few words. If she fed him more reasons to push Nathaniel away, he might actually throw Nathaniel out of his home. "Ranfik is a smart person but he's egotistical."Rickard lowered his gaze; he knew Ranfik didn't think highly of them. However, that worked for them. Peop

She couldn't stay with the Savatiers for the rest of her life. They didn't have a very strong bond with the family, so helping them, from a certain perspective, was just helping themselves. That was why they wouldn't be staying there for too long. By bringing the younger Savatiers around and showing them how the world worked, after the pair left, there would at least be someone to take over. Hesper had done all that she could. They soon arrived at the Rikihisas'. After Master Rikihisa heard that the Mustafas were stealing their business, he was ready for the business to sink. He didn't expect Hesper to turn the situation around, so he was impressed by her. "I'll work with whatever plan you have in mind."Hesper needed to hear that, but she didn't need any help from him for the time being. The Savatiers needed assistance to take down the Mustafas so their future generations wouldn't have help."I do have a request." Hesper looked around. "I'd like to see Ms. Rikihisa. Is she a

He had never anticipated that he would end up loving her so deeply.It could be said that amidst all the misunderstandings and complexities, their journey together had taken many winding paths."I wouldn't risk getting into trouble just to set off fireworks for someone I didn't even like," Rickard said, his voice gentle. "You dummy."His words were soft, but as Hesper listened to his explanation, she cleared her throat, and her eyes turned bloodshot. She had never imagined that the person she had loved so intensely in her youth had, at some point in their lives, secretly admired her.Hesper attempted to smile but ended up with teary eyes. Seeing this, Rickard reached out and affectionately ruffled her hair. "If it's going to make you cry, I won't say anything more."Hesper pursed her lips. "If you don't want to talk about it, then don't."Rickard, despite understanding her reluctance, couldn't help but reflect on the past and openly admitted to the emotions he had felt in his you

They were flooded with memories, and Hesper couldn't help but admit that she had been through so much with Rickard. Her eyes welled up with emotion.The livestream ended, as they couldn't maintain constant surveillance of their lives. Even though they hadn't gone home yet, the crew had left.In the past two days, people had gotten to know them quite well, so the crew decided to give them some alone time.Hesper sat in the passenger seat and stole a glance at Rickard. She couldn't help but say, "I never expected that the only time you were seen as making a mistake in Grandpa's eyes was because of me.""There are many things you don't know," he replied. Hesper raised an eyebrow and asked, "Like what? Tell me."Suddenly, Hesper recalled the countless times Rickard had looked at her. Yet, during those moments, Rickard had always had feelings for Juniper. She knew that was the reality, so she never expected that Rickard might have had the same strong feelings for her as she had for h

Hesper glanced at Rickard, who remained emotionless, but she still reached out to hold his hand.[This is tough to see. Both of Rickard's parents are no longer here… Sigh.][Hesper immediately checked on Rickard. If I were Rickard, I'd love her so much.]Ernest shook his head and remained silent as he flipped to the next page. Most of the pictures were of Hesper after that. She hadn't realized she had so many childhood photos. Julian appeared in some of them, too.Before everything went sour.Rickard didn't have many pictures. As he grew older, he became quieter.Most of them showed Hesper standing next to Julian, but there was something off about them.[Did you notice... In many of those pictures, Hesper was looking at Rickard, and in others, Rickard was looking at her.][Oh my god, is this puppy love? I had no idea!][I remember Rickard had another lover.]Hesper had noticed, too, but there was no need to remind people that Rickard used to hate her, so she dismissed it as a

Hesper and Rickard entered the room and awkwardly informed Ernest that everything had been live-streamed just now. Ernest was shocked, but upon hearing that it was something people do, he nodded."It's fine. There's nothing that others can't hear."Hesper pursed her lips and glanced at Rickard before saying, "We didn't expect the Summers to come and see you. You should move in with us so these people will leave you alone."If Ernest lived with them, no one would dare intrude because they represented power and influence.Who would dare challenge them?"I don't want to get involved in your life. Renfew and Renarie would keep you occupied enough."Hesper understood that he had already made up his mind not to live with them, so she didn't press the matter further.She could understand his concerns, as many things might become inconvenient. Besides, Ernest didn't want to disrupt their lives either."We'll be heading to Fredonia soon, so even though we have filming to do, we wanted t

So what if the cameras were still recording?"Was my son's life not as valuable as your son's?"If he had grasped this earlier, recent events might not have unfolded. Jade had a point.The live chat fell silent. Though they lacked the full backstory, they could deduce what had transpired in the past.[I heard Rickard lost his parents when he was a child. I feel sorry for him.][His parents died because of that incident. It's no surprise if he harbors resentment.][Truthfully, this old man has no shame. If my child were responsible for another child's death, I'd beg for forgiveness.]Everything unfolding before their eyes was purely coincidental, and no one had control over the situation. They could only watch and terminate the livestream immediately if anything escalated.Fortunately, Jade received a stern talking-to and refrained from discussing the matter further, but Mrs. Summers did not fare as well. Hesper and the others bore witness to her irrational behavior.[This is e

"We've known each other for years, Ernest. I saved your life once, and now your descendants want to take my son's life!"As they approached, Jade Summers was angrily berating Ernest before him. Hesper's countenance immediately turned frosty as she walked over to Ernest."You should conduct yourself more appropriately, Mr. Summers Sr."Jade was taken aback to see Hesper, but he composed himself, took a deep breath, and fixed her with a hatred-filled gaze."If it weren't for you, none of this would have happened. You're just a woman. Since when do you get a say in the Duval family matters?"In the 21st century, people were all for equality. Besides, Hesper was no ordinary or unintelligent woman. Naturally, she had a voice in these matters.The viewers were inundated with comments when they heard Jade's words, and the live chat exploded.[Who is this guy? He looks old but lacks respect.][What's the argument about?][I sense some drama.]Rickard walked over. Jade had thought he

[Didn't Hesper mention that Mr. Duval Sr. took care of her? Maybe she did grow up well.][I'm certain she did. Hesper doesn't strike me as someone who would tolerate mistreatment.]Hesper and Rickard were under constant surveillance throughout the journey, and they hadn't allowed Benji to accompany them. Rickard was behind the wheel, with Hesper in the passenger seat.During the drive, they remained silent, but to observers, it appeared as though they were in harmony.Upon arriving at the ancestral mansion, Hesper noticed other cars parked around and cast a curious glance at Rickard. Visitors to Ernest's home were a rarity."Sir, Ma'am, you're back," a young housekeeper greeted them. It was the same person who had assisted Wendy earlier, but they couldn't recall her name. Nevertheless, Hesper had faith in her.Noticing the housekeeper's troubled demeanor, Hesper deduced that the guest inside was likely unwelcome. However, she couldn't fathom who would disrupt Ernest's life. Given

Rickard noticed something in Hesper's expression, prompting him to ask, "Is there something else you haven't told me?"Being intimately familiar with each other wasn't always without its challenges. Hesper could never conceal anything from him.She sighed and replied, "It's nothing. Just that Pennleigh will also be on the list."Rickard fell silent.Hesper was aware that sometimes Rickard might not appear bothered, but Pennleigh's presence did bother him.Observing Hesper's awkward expression, Rickard lowered his gaze and suddenly took on a pitiful appearance, like a big dog caught in the rain.Yet, she knew he was merely putting on an act. Still, every time she saw him like that, she couldn't help but miss the Rickard who didn't engage in such playful antics. His character had undergone a change.Hesper found it amusing but didn't quite know how to express it. She sighed and added, "It's a fantastic opportunity. I know you'll let me go, right?"Rickard had no intention of inte

"Sullivan lied to her. He had her parents quietly killed. She found out after she turned her back on you."Benji lowered his gaze. "She was already dead when you came back. It was suicide."The conclusion lacked the weight necessary for such a betrayal. Hesper shut her eyes. The person she had trusted most was Renee. They had shared countless years together.Hesper acknowledged that their bond might not have been a genuine friendship. Renee had abandoned her when given the choice.However, Hesper had faced such situations before.Thankfully, there had been someone who had placed her first in their heart, reassuring her that she wasn't always relegated to being an option. Hesper stood in silence for a while before simply nodding.There was nothing she could do to aid Renee now. Renee had entered and departed alone, leaving no trace behind with Hesper.When the topic was broached, it weighed heavily on her heart. Hesper understood the situation but found herself at a loss for word
