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

    As if it had been ingrained into her soul, Zoya raised her head up and looked at Hesper vigilantly. However, she soon realized that she was at Renfrew's house, and the yellow light that fell on the back of her hand was warm. Hesper was slightly startled by Zoya's gaze. She felt a chill down her spine as if she was being stared at by a monster, but she soon regained her composure. It seemed to her that there might be something important to Zoya in her bag, so she said, "Don't worry. I won't take your things." Zoya felt a little uneasy and shook her head after Hesper comforted her."No… It isn't about that…"After that, she put her bag down carefully against the wall. Seeing how careful Zoya was, Hesper knew that she did not trust them entirely. Besides, Zoya seemed to be more mature than people around her age, so Hesper suspected that she must have had a difficult life before. Even though the clothes she wore were expensive, she said that she did not have any parents. Initiall

    "Why don't you tell your mother?" Zoya asked, throwing Renfrew in for a loop.The reason he did not tell Hesper anything about his suspicion was that he somehow felt a sense of familiarity from Zoya. It was as if he had heard her voice from somewhere before, but it was hidden in a corner of his memories and he hadn't discovered it yet.Zoya originally did not intend to reveal her true identity to Renfrew, but since he was suspicious of her, she knew that there would inevitably be unnecessary conflicts if this continued."I'm Myriade," she said."Huh?" When Hesper found the medication and returned to the dining room, she felt that something was off between Renfrew and Zoya. Both of them looked cute huddling together, but she could not tell what was wrong Renfrew felt a little guilty for no reason, but when he saw Zoya calmly pull out a lollipop from her jacket pocket and hand it to him, he felt like he had overreacted.'She's just Ms. Myriade! There's nothing to feel shy about!

    Zoya's original plan was to go back to the organization after meeting Renfrew. She only came out for a short period of time. No one would go look for her normally, so they might not even notice that she was gone.However, after seeing Renfrew and his mother, she did not want to leave anymore.So, she thought of staying here for a while longer.'It shouldn't be a problem, right?' Zoya thought inwardly. She felt a little bit more at ease after comforting herself. Before that day, she had never left Skydawn, and the people there always told her that the world outside was beautiful but it was a dangerous place. If she had the chance, she wanted to go out and see it with her own eyes once.And now, she had finally seen it.*It was a dreamless night. By the time Zoya opened her eyes, it was already nine in the morning. She pulled the curtain open, allowing the beams of sunlight to enter the room and cast away the darkness. Basking under the sun, she still could not quite come around

    Zoya shook her head hesitantly. "No… I don't want to go back today…""We should let her stay for a few more days!" Renfrew said as he shook Hesper's hand under the table. Hesper was caught between tears and laughter. She rubbed Renfrew's head and said, "It's not up to me to decide. Zoya has her own family as well. This isn't her home, so she has to go back sooner or later."Renfrew understood what Hesper said, but he did not want Zoya to go back. He pouted his lips with disappointment, while Zoya lowered head and chuckled. Even though there were a lot of things in Zoya's bag, Hesper was confident that there were no clothes in there. After she took off her down jacket yesterday, Hesper also noticed that the clothes that Zoya was wearing seemed inappropriate for the season. Besides, it was not hygienic to keep wearing the same outfit either.When Renfrew learned that they were going out with Zoya, he went back to his room and began rummaging through his closet. In the end, it was

    Taking advantage of the chaotic situation, Zoya slipped away from Hesper and Renfrew to go after that figure. "Oh my, it seems like our Mimi is pretty sharp—"Someone grabbed Zoya's collar from behind as soon as she turned around a corner. "Let me have a good look at our cute little traitor… Oh, look at what she's got. A set of new clothes. It seems like Hesper really likes you very much." Zoya kept a cold face. She knew she could not break herself free from Riley since he was much taller than her, but it did not matter."What are you doing here? Besides, I'm sure you know who's the real traitor between us, right? Killing Hesper isn't one of Big T's goals either." Riley put Zoya down and squatted in front of her. After that, he reached out and pinched Zoya's cheek while smiling at her. "Mimi… Do you know that you may get yourself killed if you poke your nose into other people's affairs?""Don't call me that name," Zoya said as she turned her head aside. "You should probably sa

    "You look really beautiful in real life, the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in my life, just slightly lesser than me." Riley put his thumb and forefinger together to show a small gap. His hand was finally free from Myriade’s tight grasp, but he still looked at her in pain. Myriade pretended that she didn’t see him and stood behind Renfrew. "..." Hesper was a little surprised at suddenly receiving compliments. Riley was a little too friendly and Hesper had never met anyone like him. She said, "If Myriade doesn’t want to leave with you, I won’t let you take her away."Riley wasn’t planning on bringing Myriade with him, so he waved his hand. "Whatever, if she wants to stay here, then stay. She won’t be able to come back though."Renfrew was confused. Remembering something, Riley continued, "Myriade has a supplementary card and the credit limit is pretty high. I think it’s enough for you to take care of her until she’s seventeen or eighteen."The love Big T had for everyone e

    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.
