When would the cycle of revenge end? Cheney's actions would undoubtedly leave some survivors harboring resentment against her. When this happened, they would come looking for her for revenge.It was a repetitive cycle with almost no meaning.However, what happened had happened. Hesper knows that she could not save everyone even with advanced medical skills. She was just an ordinary person with a bit of ability.Taking a deep breath, Hesper calmed herself down. Upon arriving home, they ran into Sherese on her way out. Hesper looked at her with some confusion. Since the recent kidnapping, she always felt Sherese was acting strangely, but she could not pinpoint what was odd.In the end, it was just that too much had happened recently, and they simply had not had the time to focus on Sherese."Where are you going?" Hesper asked.Sherese seemed a bit shocked, then she shook her head. "I found a job outside. There's just too much going on here. When I'm free, I'm always lost in my th

Meanwhile, after a week-long slumber, Christopher finally awoke, unable to believe he was awake.Hesper rushed over upon receiving Liam's call, and Rickard, who was occupied with other tasks, rushed over as well."We need to run some tests, but he's definitely conscious now."Liam leaned against the wall, waiting all day for Christopher to awaken. He couldn't decide whether to feel glad or anxious, given all that had transpired.After Christopher's check-up, he was wheeled back to his room. He noticed Rickard and Hesper sitting there, with Hesper staring at him, and he sighed."You never thought you would see me again, did you?"Hesper regarded Christopher with a half-smile and cold eyes. "Christopher, that was some impressive calculation. If your knife hadn't missed the mark, I might never have been able to clear my name."So, it was due to the knife going off target. Regardless of how well he had planned, he hadn't considered that his own mistake had caused the failure. Now th

Liam mentioned that Christopher had disappeared for some time before. It turned out he had met Asher during that period, and it had a profound impact on his life."I saw you when you were just a child, Hesper."After some quick calculations and recalling the location of the ship, Hesper was shocked. The ship Christopher's kidnappers had been brought him onto was the same one where something had happened to her?"I suppose you remembered."Christopher hadn't been too old but was already in his teens. If he hadn't been drugged, he wouldn't have been taken so easily.During his time on the ship, his days were hazy, and he had no idea where he was going until, one day, someone entered his room.The human trafficker was absent, and Christopher lay in bed without making a sound. The man believed it was a safe room until Christopher weakly asked for help.The man was Asher.Upon realizing that a teenager was locked up there, even though he was avoiding the human trafficker too, Asher

However, everyone that was there that day caused his life to crumble. He had to take revenge. After listening to him, everyone started having mixed feelings, but the way Asher died shouldn't be why Christopher restarted the hallucinogen. More innocent people would die if he did. "If Asher were still alive, would he want to see the person he saved turn into someone he'd hated? Someone who hurts others?"Hesper's words were truthful, and she didn't continue speaking. Even she couldn't accept how Asher died, so she understood how Christopher, who witnessed it, felt. "I already knew what was going to happen to me when I opened my eyes. Do whatever you want with me." Christopher looked determined, with his eyes closed. "I've lost.""I won't do anything to you," Hesper said. Christopher and Liam looked over as she continued. "It's because Asher saved you. I'm sure your family will keep an eye on you after this."Liam had thought there was no way out of this. Hesper added, "If yo

"You shouldn't have saved me, Uncle Asher."Hesper didn't think he would answer her since she was only dreaming, and it was also part of her memory. Her memory remained the same, so he wouldn't answer her.Her tears started falling.She grew up in an orphanage, so no one would remember her. She lived by herself for so many years, but now she had a loving brother, a grandpa who treated her better than anyone in the world, and a mother who protected and missed her… Now, she had a man who protected her for so long, although she had forgotten him. "Why should I have not?" When Hesper broke down in tears, 'Uncle Asher' suddenly spoke. "Don't blame yourself. It was my choice, you know? That's just how Asher Scarlett is. If we meet again one day, and I stand before you, I still won't say I regretted it."Even if this was all a dream, Hesper still hugged Asher until he drifted further away. She jolted awake. "What's wrong?" Rickard sat at the edge of the bed and frowned, seeing her w

Hesper followed Benji to the location where Pierette was held. She entered the room and found Rickard and Pierette present, but they remained silent. Rickard's gaze met hers, and his expression calmed."You're all here," Pierette said with a chuckle. "No need to be so nervous. I'm just Dick's aunt, not a monster.""Enough with the pointless talk. The hallucinogen caused harm to many people. Why did you assist Christopher in redeveloping it?"Hesper approached, and Pierette smirked. "What's wrong with the hallucinogen? I was in Leafdelle with the Savatiers, where no one took me seriously. So, why shouldn't I have found a way out? I didn't choose Christopher; he chose me."Hesper frowned and decided to change the topic. "Where is the child you had with Raheem Mustafa?"Pierette seemed slightly surprised by the question; she didn't know Hesper and the others had learned about her child. She shrugged."How would I know where that little bastard is? I never loved Raheem, so I got rid

Hesper went to the Turners' mansion to visit the brothers.Lily had been learning to speak. Although it was a bit challenging, it wasn't too difficult. Lily had grown up hearing various languages, so she was able to learn quickly.Lily was delighted to see Hesper and looked up at her. "You... are here!"Despite her struggles, Hesper could understand what Lily was saying, so she gently patted her head. "Very good!"Lily felt proud hearing the praise but then gazed at Hesper with curiosity. "Why... are you here?"So much had occurred recently, but no one had informed Lily about it. After a moment of hesitation, Hesper shook her head, choosing not to share the details. "Just something related to work. No need to worry."Lily understood, realizing that Liam was likely keeping her in the dark about certain matters to protect her. Nevertheless, she would assume responsibility for the family once she fully recovered and could function normally.Hesper looked at her, aware that she had

She was going to wait till she had more information. "Another question. Do you know where Pierette's child is?"Christopher didn't react this time except to say, "I know. Not only do I know, I personally arranged for a good place for her. I promised Pierette that, if I worked with her, I wouldn't tell anyone where the child is.""She's here then."Christopher looked at Hesper, not knowing how she came to this conclusion, but she was right. "I couldn't be sure at first, but there was a rumor that her child is with your family." Joy flashed across Hesper's eyes. Christopher ran his tongue across his teeth as Hesper smiled. "You were never afraid of playing dirty."Liam, who was right next to them, heard her and frowned. "Who are you talking about?"How could he not know if this person was in his household?Hesper looked over to him and said, "We need to ask Mr. Turner here. Pierette had a child with someone all those years ago, but she handed the child over to him right after

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
