A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love Chapter 328
Hesper slept all the way until the next afternoon. When she finally opened her eyes, Renfrew was no longer in her arms."Take a look at these codes again! Do the math and...""Keep it down. Hesper is still asleep.""Sorry, Mr. Lane. I got carried away..."Hesper opened her eyes, feeling muddled, only to find that a bunch of people were circling around a small table nearby. Renfrew was right in the center, frowning at the computer, looking very grownup.Since no one realized that she had woken up, Hesper turned her body sideways and quietly watched what they were up to. The clacking of the keyboard was especially loud in the quiet space. Hesper raised her eyebrows at the sight.According to what she just heard, it seemed Renfrew had an amazing talent."Amazing! I can't believe you know how to do that too! Is this kid really just three years old?""Hush."Hesper wanted to break into laughter, but she held back and listened to Renfrew's solemn reply instead. "I've had my fourth b

"Matt."Hesper interrupted him and stared calmly into Matthew's eyes."You know very well that I'm not the type to obsess about love. I'm simply doing what must be done."Since he could not get through to her, Matthew decided to stop confronting her about the subject. No matter how many times he tried to persuade her, it was still Hesper's decision. Even if he were to go on and on about it, it would be pointless."Rickard sent his men to look for you throughout Genecity last night as well. What you wish to accomplish may just come true soon enough." Matthew turned around. "I know I can't convince you, Hesper. Our time is brief, and so are our lives. I just want to see you spend each day happily."Without giving Hesper time to respond, Matthew walked out of the ward.***Meanwhile, Rickard's flight had just landed.Myriade followed behind Rickard. She had no luggage with her. All she carried on her was one backpack that consisted of lollipops, a laptop, and her ID. Nothing else,

Meanwhile, Hesper had completed her physical examination, confirming that she was now safe and healthy. Hesper was ready to be discharged from the hospital and go home with Renfrew.There was still no news from Rickard yet, and Hesper had no idea when he would return. If he never did, maybe it'd be for the best. That way, she could continue living with Renfrew for just a while longer.As she was about to head out, Hesper found herself barricaded at the ward exit by a couple of hackers who worked for the Lanes. They had a glow of excitement in their eyes which Hesper could not comprehend."Ms. Lane... the young master is truly talented. Could you leave him with us so we could teach him... ah, no, I mean..." The bunch of men who had been studying scientific principles all their lives were racking their brains for the right words to say. "We just… we're fond of the young master."Renfrew looked at the big men in front of him with slight disdain. Hesper could pretty much guess that the

“I really meant it!” Hesper said. “I promise that I won’t marry anyone else.”“Then what about Daddy? Will you marry him?” Hesper was tongue-tied. Perhaps in Renfrew's world, getting married was about two adults living under the same roof. However, more often than not, adults had to consider a lot of things.Besides, even if she did marry again, it would never be to Rickard. Renfrew seemed to be able to understand what she was trying to say. He nodded understandingly and sighed. “Alright, I get it. I’ll stop bothering you then, Mommy. You can get back to your work.” When Nathaniel walked over, Renfrew released Hesper’s arm and ran away. Hesper looked at Nathaniel with an embarrassed expression on her face and said, “Renfrew is still a kid. There are a lot of things he doesn’t understand, so I hope you won’t take it to heart.” Nathaniel shook his head and grinned, understanding lighting up in his beautiful eyes. “Honestly, I didn’t get to hear your conversation, but I can more

It was afternoon there. Before Nathaniel could say anything, a girl’s voice rang out as she called out to Seth. Seth turned his head around and said something to her. “Have you had a chance to come back to the country recently?” Nathaniel asked. Seth was confused as he replied, his voice full of bewilderment, “Why would I go back? My schedule is packed here, and I’m sure that you know I’m graduating next year, right?” Hesper entered the camera and looked at Seth beside Nataniel.“Ms. Rivera?” That was how the killer addressed her that night. However, their voices and tone were different, and there was no mole under Seth's eyes after Hesper studied him.“I don’t mean to offend you, Seth, but do you mind if I ask you a few questions?” Seth was a little bit surprised. That being said, he took a look at his watch and nodded. “Alright. We can talk as I walk. I still have another eight minutes before my class starts. I think we should have enough time.” Hesper nodded. Without w

Juniper was lying on the bed, her eyes staring skyward at the sun that was hanging high in the sky. She had stayed up the entire night. Her eyes were red, looking like a demon that had crawled out of hell. Benji had taken her phone away. There was nothing inside the room. Even though she was very familiar with the Duvals' residence, she could not go anywhere other than her own room nor could she do anything. “Rickard, Hesper…” Juniper clenched her fists so tightly that her fingernails stabbed into her palm. However, she paid the pain no mind and muttered, “How dare you… This has nothing to do with me… How dare you lock me up in here…”Suddenly, a series of footfalls erupted from outside. After a while, the door was opened and someone came in.“You can leave now.”It was not Benji. Juniper was filled with so much hatred that it was driving her to the verge of insanity. Her eyes were bloodshot and filled with anger as she snarled, “I can leave now? Do you know who I am? Am I a d

"How could I not see before what sort of people you guys are?" Juniper said, her voice laced thick with mockery. Sophie did not like the mockery in Juniper’s voice. "What sort of people we are?" she muttered. "We've always been like this from the very beginning. The reason we accepted you and treated you nicely is that my brother liked you. "But it’s clear to everyone that my brother likes Hesper now, isn't it? After all, she’s one of the Lanes, with a high net worth. She even gave birth to a boy for us Duvals," Sophia continued with a pout. "In my opinion, she’s a lot better than you."In the past, Sophia had always looked up to Juniper and regarded her as her idol. Juniper also treated her like a sister, and she cared for her even more than she did for Rickard. Yet, Sophie was mocking her and ridiculing her right now as if those memories had never happened before.It was nothing but a show put up by this pair of mother and daughter. When the realization hit Juniper, she broke

Even though Myriade used a voice changer whenever she was talking to Renfrew, he was still able to feel some familiarity in her tone and intonation. When Hesper was pregnant with Renfrew, she often thought that if she gave birth to a girl, she would design many beautiful dresses for her and tie her hair up to make her the most beautiful and lovely girl in the world. Although Hesper had never tied a girl's hair before, she skillfully tied Myriade's hair into two perfect buns. Probably due to her mixed-race background, Myriade's hair was not completely black. Her hair glowed with a dark golden sheen, and she looked just as exquisite as a doll. Although she didn't know why, Hesper had a strange fondness for the girl in front of her. "What's your name?" she asked. When Myriade realized that Renfrew was looking at her as well, she hesitated. After a short while, she said, "I'm Zoya Taylor." *On the other side, Benji felt a little bit of a headache. "Is it safe to send a memb

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
