A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love Chapter 356
Before escaping the scene, Myriade gazed at Renfrew for the last time, but her sight was blurred by the tears in her eyes."Okay, don’t think about it any longer." The young man draped his overcoat on the blood-stained Myriade. "You’ve come this far, haven’t you? There’s no turning back now. Just remember that you and the mother and son aren’t the same kind of people."Myriade was holding a box that fell from Roberto’s hand, and the helicopter hovering in the sky descended. The man then boarded the helicopter with Myriade, and the ground shrank little by little in her eyes.With trembling hands, Myriade opened the gift box in front of her, and there was a postcard on the top. A few words were written on it with a marker: "A gift for you, Zee."Myriade recognized the handwriting; it was written by Hesper herself.The gift was a very beautiful dress, and it was pure white.Myriade burst into tears, and the man took her into his arms and patted her on the back lightly.Both of them did no

…It was already the next night when Roberto woke up. Hesper, who had been staying in the hospital, was the first person to find him awake."Mr. Sanchez..."Roberto opened his eyes and patted Hesper’s hand. "I’m fine."Hesper was still blaming herself for what happened to Roberto. If it were not for her, Zoya would not have had the chance to make a move on Roberto. If she had not asked him to come to her, Roberto wouldn't have gotten involved in the incident."I..."Seeing that Hesper hesitated to speak, Roberto shook his head. "What happened has nothing to do with you.""...What?" Hesper could see that Roberto was not trying to comfort herself.Roberto did not explain his encounter to Hesper directly but asked, "Do you know the young girl’s name? And do you know her?""Yeah... I know her." Hesper nodded. "Her name is Zoya, Zoya Taylor."Roberto nodded, and his gaze overflowed with emotions that Hesper could not comprehend. "It’s a very romantic name. That’s nice...""Mr. Sa

After Zoya left, life gradually got back on track.Rickard had taken Renfrew back to the Duvals. Hesper never once mentioned that she wanted to see Renfrew ever since the incident, nor did she contact Rickard again. Renfrew was very sensible and would video call Hesper every day.Looking at Renfrew, Hesper could feel that he had become more taciturn as the days went by.Myriade’s departure was a major blow to him. Rickard found him a new coach after that, and Renfrew did not reject him. Even with the new teacher, he still showed incredible talent."Just understand the situation that you’re in and know when to stop."Knowing what happened during this period of time, Matthew only sighed on the other end of the call. "Rickard is a heartless person. Must you measure just how huge of a role emotions play in his world through the disappointments that you experience from him over and over again?"It was rare for Hesper to feel this frustrated, but she had to admit that what Matthew said

"No one knows the exact reason why, but Uncle Simon submitted an application to leave the army after Father’s accident. Grandpa has always thought that he’s a deserter, but I don’t think he left because he was worried for his life."Matthew’s voice sounded somewhat helpless. "However, Uncle Simon has never explained himself. After the incident, he went abroad and rarely comes back.""Uncle Simon and Uncle Theo are very close. So, if you could build a good relationship with the former, you won’t have to worry about getting to know more about the latter."Hesper said that she understood what she had to do after returning to Emperion, and the two of them moved on to briefly talk about work arrangements. After all, Hesper would return to Emperion for a period of time soon. She should deal with some of the tasks on hand in advance so that Renee would not have to bury herself in work when Hesper was away."Hesper.""Huh?" Hesper lifted her head. "What’s the matter?"Matthew shook his h

Coming out of the ward, Hesper and Nathaniel walked side by side in the hospital.Nathaniel took the initiative to break the somewhat awkward atmosphere. “I’ve heard about the matter with Daybreak. Are you okay?”Hesper shook her head. “How am I not okay? As for the girl… She was quite well-behaved when she was staying with me. But I really didn’t expect things to turn out like this. I even got Mr. Sanchez hurt.“Let’s not talk about this anymore. You’ve been coming to Genecity quite often recently. Is there something that demands your attention here?” Hesper turned her head. “I remember that you were always in Emperion before, and occasionally, you’d go abroad to study. Before, you claimed that you hadn’t been in Genecity in a long time.”Nathaniel was taken aback for a moment. Then he lowered his beautiful eyes and gazed at Hesper helplessly.“Do you really not know why I’m always here?” Nathaniel approached her abruptly. Hesper’s heart skipped a beat, but after seeing Nathani

After Zoya left, she sent Renfrew back to the Duval Manor. She usually would only eat a little when she was hungry, and if she wasn't hungry, she would keep herself busy and not eat properly."Let's make something delicious for dinner. Do you have anything in mind, Hesper? I remember you enjoyed the food I made last time. Do you want to have that tonight?" Arthur asked as he looked at Hesper affectionately. When she nodded, he went into the kitchen and asked the chef to prepare the food.Hesper was sitting on the couch, playing on her phone while waiting for Arthur. Suddenly, a pair of hands holding a glass of milk appeared in front of her.Hesper raised her head and became surprised. "Uncle Simon?"Simon nodded, and Hesper took the glass of milk he handed her. Simon then sat across from her. He had a pair of slightly upturned eyes that were different from the other sons of Arthur, giving him a somewhat feminine look. "Didn't Matthew tell you anything? I'm staying at home now," S

After she returned to her room at night, Hesper made a call to Matthew."Did Uncle Simon have any grudges against Rachael?" On the other side of the line, Matthew frowned and replied, "Where did you hear that? Rachael was only four years old when she went missing. How could Simon have any grudges against her?"Hesper could not figure it out either, but this was what Arthur told her. In this house, only Matthew and Arthur would not lie to her, as there was no need for them to. "Grandpa told me this afternoon."After that, Hesper told Matthew everything that Arthur told her, and Matthew was silent for a moment after listening."I… Honestly, I've never heard of such a thing before. Why would Grandpa say that?" Matthew wondered. However, what Hesper worried about right now was another matter. "If… I mean what if Uncle Simon really had a grudge against Rachael?" Hesper felt that this was somewhat absurd as well, but she continued. "Could Uncle Simon have had an ulterior motive w

At first, Hesper thought of declining, but she didn't expect the opportunity to interact with Theodore to land in her lap like this. Before, she thought of learning these things through Simon, but that was no longer feasible. It would be best if she could contact Theodore directly. Theodore had not worked for many years and had been living in the manor to keep Arthur company. He had accumulated enough wealth in his youth to live on it now, and even if he spent the rest of his life doing nothing or squandered all of his savings, he would not have any concerns when he got older since he was one of the Lanes.When Hesper found Theodore, he was watering the plants in the garden.It was impossible to grow flowers in Emperion during this season. This was the first time Hesper had seen someone setting up a greenhouse in their yard to grow flowers. As soon as she walked into the greenhouse, a burst of rose fragrance hit her nose."I've heard about it," Theodore said, taking off his gl

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
