Matthew, no longer caring about the agreement, immediately took the picture out of the file and stood up. He went upstairs, knocked on Arthur's door, and, after getting approval, went in and stood in front of Arthur. Arthur was reading some papers on the couch. He removed his reading glasses and frowned. "What's the hurry?""I found this picture." Matthew didn't beat around the bush and immediately took out the picture, placing it in front of Arthur. "Who is the woman? Why have I never seen her in any pictures in our home? Why does she look so much like Hesper?"Arthur froze when he saw the picture. Facing all the questions, he sighed. "I didn't think you would find it."Arthur took the picture from him and scrutinize it then shook his head. "I destroyed everything about your mother except this. I didn't have the heart to do it, so I slipped it into a book. I don't know when the book went missing, but I guess it was fate that you found it."Matthew was stunned. "My mother?"Matt

Meanwhile, Hesper took a deep breath as she witnessed Julie and Sophia getting into a car and leaving Genecity. Ernest stood behind her and put a coat on her shoulders. "I've heard Rickard say that you helped when Duval Group was in trouble." Ernest looked at the girl who he watched grow up. He didn't know when she started feeling like a stranger to him. The stubborn eyes he saw at the orphanage now looked stronger too. Hesper shook her head, deciding to be honest. "If we didn't solve that issue, Lane Holdings would be impacted too… Besides, Duval Group was also a result of your hard work, so I couldn't just stand by and watch."Ricakrd stood beside them. Ernest looked at his disappointing grandson, then sighed and said, "I heard that Ren is sick. I haven't had the chance to visit him… How is he? He's a lucky boy. I'm sure he'll be alright."Hesper and Ernest chatted for a while longer while Rickard just stood there. "It's getting late, and I'm sure you have work to do," Erne

"So, you think you can toss me aside after completing your plan?""...What plan?"So many confusing memories rushed into her mind. She seemed to have planned to make Rickard fall for her and then push the most painful, dullest knife into his chest. However, Hesper had long given up on that plan. She thought that it was ridiculous. She watched as Rickard parked in a slot next to the road, then turned and grabbed her wrist, holding her down against her seat. His breath was so close, Hesper felt anxious but still looked calm. "What are you trying to do?" she said.Rickard tried to find traces of emotion on her face, but Hesper's eyes were as calm as a pond without ripples, gentle but quiet. "Disgusting."Hesper paused. Rickard let go of her and sat back in his seat. "If we don't find a match for Ren's marrow, I'll do what Professor Miles says and take the medication that'll help me temporarily recover. We can't delay his surgery any longer." The topic changed so quickly,

Dianthe's temper flared at the question. She didn't care that the privacy screen only created a space between the front and back of the car, not blocking out noise. "It's all because of Rachael Lane. I saw her for who she was and refused to give her special treatment, so she set me up."Hesper cleared her throat. Dianthe didn't get the hint and continued. "So much happened while you were abroad. I know you're very busy. Nathaniel… Let's not talk about him. Let's talk about Matt instead. He's a quiet one; I'm sure he hasn't told you anything."Dianthe realized that she made a mistake by bringing up Nathaniel. Even though no one knew why the Tuckers disappeared, the Baylesses, Lanes, and Tuckers had a good relationship, so they knew what Nathaniel did. She looked down with guilt. "It's alright, it's not your fault."Hesper was very calm, so Dianthe was relieved. "Do you remember Ehren Sulzbach? His legs work now.""They work now?" Hesper paused and remembered that Nathaniel and Ehr

Hesper was silent for a moment. "It was just a coincidence. I haven't forgiven him… Let's not talk about that. Let's go back and get you cleaned up. My current apartment is too small. I'll get Renee to find you a new place in two days.""Thanks, Hessy!"Dianthe forgot about the gossiping and follwed Hesper into the apartment. ***A few days flew past and Matthew finally got the results of the DNA test. The assistant placed the envelope in his hands. Standing in front of the window, Matthew hesitated then opened the envelope and took the report out. He immediately went to the last line. "Your guess was right. Ms. Rivera is actually your biological sister."Seeing the result, the assistant was shocked too. However, since Matthew made him get the DNA test done in secret, it was obvious that Matthew had evidence Hesper was his sister. Matthew balled up his fists and shoved the report back into the envelope, handing it to the assistant. "Destroy it.""...Mr. Lane?" When Matt

The document Hesper asked Matthew for a while ago hadn't been sent over yet, so she thought that he was too busy and had forgotten about her request. On top of that, with the issue of Halwart Factory, Hesper herself forgot about it too.Hearing Hesper call her Matt again felt weird. Matthew never felt as happy before, but since there were other issues at play, he suppressed his joy. "I found someone whose bone marrow matches Ren's. It's me."Hesper was designing, but when she heard that, she dropped her pen. She asked with a shaky voice, "You found a match… and it's you?""Yes." Matthew wanted to be by her side to answer her question. "The doctor says I'm healthy and fit the criteria. As long as Renfrew gets the preparation needed, we'll be able to have the surgery in a week's time.""Alright… I'm going to give the doctor a call," Hesper hung up and realized her fingers were shaking. Her heart was strung up, but she was rejoicing. How could she be so lucky? The person they were

"You're the best." Renfrew chuckled. "You can't suddenly disappear. You only see me on the phone."Hesper patted his head with a pang of guilt. Rickard rushed over. Seeing Hesper and Renfrew quietly embracing, he didn't want to break them up. He turned around and spoke to Benji. "Protect Ren at all costs. Where's Professor Miles?""I heard him say that he's staying with an old friend." Benji quickly continued. "Do you want me to bring him over to your home?""Yes, just in case."Rickard nodded, so Benji immediately got in touch with Professor Miles and left the family of three in the room. "Why is Daddy standing there by the door?" Renfrew suddenly asked. That made Hesper turn around. She saw Rickard standing there, so she took a step back and touched her face to test the temperature. When she was sure that she didn't look embarrassed, she spoke. "Matt will be here tomorrow, and the doctor agreed to perform the surgery within the week. The success rate is 80%. As long as hi

Matthew arrived at Genecity the next day. The only thing that didn't go smoothly was that he didn't see his grandpa. Theodore brought him back to his place the day before, and Simon was nowhere to be found. Even though Matthew had reason to believe his family members were avoiding him, he still kept his secret. However, when he saw Rachael, he could no longer look as happy as he used to be. He didn't know if 'Rachael Lane' at home even knew if she was the imposter. He could forgive her if she was forced into it, but she knew she wasn't the real deal, yet she did so much to harm Hesper…Matthew would make her pay. Hesper was nowhere to be seen at the airport, only Renee was there. Matthew curiously asked, "Where's Hesper?""She's unwell…"Renee didn't expect Hesper to fall sick at this crucial time. Dianthe didn't know what to do. Hesper was fine the day before, but when she woke up the next day, she had a high fever. Frowning, Matthew said, "Is she still staying at the apart

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
