Sylvie's words sounded odd when he thought about it, but now wasn't the time to ask so many questions. There were enough mysteries surrounding Hestia, so what was one more?"I'll contact you the second we have information."Sylvie nodded after saying that and walked out of the study.***Meanwhile, Renfrew woke up. The second he saw Hestia, his eyes were filled with tears. The last thing he remembered was his mother jumping into the river without hesitation. It didn't matter if her memories had recovered or not, she still loved him. "Oh, don't cry." Hestia had complicated feelings when she looked at Renfrew. She couldn't deny that Renfrew created some problems for her. His decision led to him being abducted and that was how she ended up being taken too. However, when she realized what he had been thinking when he was abducted, Hestia couldn't be angry at him. She swallowed the blame that she was going to place on him. Hestia looked at Renfrew who was lying in bed, hesitan

"I'm not asking you to help recover my memories. I won't do anything even if I stay here." Seeing how Professor Miles didn't plan to back down, she softened her tone. "Look at Ren, that poor boy. Ever since Hesper went missing, he's lived in pain every day and now he's finally getting better."Professor Miles frowned and looked at her, who started crying. "Don't you feel terrible seeing a child depressed because he was away from his mother? You could help him and pull him out of his misery…""Alright, alright." Professor Miles waved his hand like he was swatting away some flies. "I know what you're thinking. You just lost your memory; I don't know about other things, but your acting has definitely improved."Hestia cleared her throat with a hint of guilt. "I don't know what I've done to deserve this. I lived a carefree life before this and now I"m so busy rushing around but getting nothing in return."Hestia knew that meant he agreed, so she smiled. "Say what you need and I'll

Someone gave her medication?Hestia never thought that was possible, but when she thought about it, it made sense. She did keep getting flashbacks, but after that, she couldn't remember anything about them. It was possibly the result of some medication. "If you want to recover your memories, we need to find something to counter the medication you've been given." Professor Miles went silent for a second, then continued. "When I gave you a check-up, the traces of medication in your body were low. Hence why I think your memories will come back soon. However, if you want to remember sooner, I'd need to find another way… Maybe you would have to take a risk. Do you still want to get your memories back earlier?"Hestia nodded solemnly. "I do."Even if the risk was high, she wasn't willing to wait for things to just happen to her and to become a pawn of fate and a fish on someone else's chopping board.Professor Miles knew her answer, so he sighed and said, "Since you've already made u

"What do you mean by that?" Zikmund angrily said. "Listen, I play by the rules sometimes. What do you need? Funds! The funds the Deschamps gave to Nathaniels were received, but funding for partnership between the Duvals Group and Deschamps kept getting delayed. I'm guessing you're dry now."Hearing that, Rickard paused. "I'm right, aren't I?" Watching Rickard's expression, Zikmund felt proud. He then said, "I just received some money, a dividend from an investment. I can let you borrow it. You can pay me back double that after you take Nathaniel down."Rickard scoffed. "Go find out how many years you'll be sentenced for being a loan shark."Even though Zikmund was usually a rule-breaker, he was a great friend to have, or Rickard wouldn't have been friends with him for so long. They didn't have to talk much but when Rickard needed money, he wouldn't say no. "So Hesper is missing again?"After getting filled in on what happened recently, Zikmund sighed and said, "Every time there

That was what was really on Professor Miles' mind. He had thought Julian would inherit his work but didn't expect the current situation. He was getting old; finding a good enough apprentice was like finding a needle in a haystack. Hesper showed interest in medicine previously, but he hadn't had time to find out if she had the aptitude for it and then after that, a series of incidents had messed up his plans. Hestia was surprised but still said, "I don't know much. I can't differentiate… these herbs.""That's fine." Professor Miles was ready. He took a book out from somewhere and tossed it. Hestia caught it and when she read it, she realize it was a book filled with diagrams of Halwanese herbs. Seeing the name of the book, Hestia realized what was happening. Did he want to teach her?"Um…" Hestia looked at him with a surprised expression. Even though she had learned something, she knew she was a total rookie. It seemed too much for her to learn from him. "Just say if you wan

"Mommy, drink some water."Renfrew brought a glass of warm water over. Hestia hadn't gotten used to her new identity yet, but when she saw the shiny eyes of the boy, she felt it wasn't too bad. "Thanks." Hearing how her tone softened, Renfrew blinked twice, then turned and left. Professor Miles watched their interactions and hooked his head. One of them had forgotten while the other had autism. They were pretty much like strangers. The first night, Hestia memorized the book until the sky turned dark. Even though she always had a good memory, when it came to a topic as foreign to her as herbs, it wasn't easy to absorb everything she learned. "Alright, we'll start crushing the medicine today."Seeing that Hestia finished memorizing, Professor Miles didn't test her but said, "This is what Ren needs today. You've memorized the nature and type of these. Whether we can process these well enough depends on how well you memorized them."Even Hestia couldn't help but admire the way

Hearing Rickard say it was about the studio, Sylvie was relieved. She nodded. "I'll take care of that. Thanks for the notice."The battle between the Duvals and the Tuckers was getting more and more fired up. Sylvie started respecting Rickard more. Everyone could tell that Duval Group was at a disadvantage in the situation, but even after five days, Nathaniel still didn't manage to take advantage and it instead looked like his side under pressure. Rickard turned around and left. Sylvie took a deep breath. Mr. Deschamps coming to Halwanest was an important event, so it was better to keep everything under wraps before he arrived. Rickard noticed Sylvie's odd behavior but didn't say anything, mainly because he had important things to get to."She's here."Benji opened the car door and looked stern. "We've recovered the surveillance and confirmed that Madam Duval was the one who took the young master away. We've also discovered that she received large sums of money while she stayed

"All I had to do was tell that person a little bit of unimportant information. Only a fool would say no to the money... Hasn't Renfrew always been good?"When Julie said this, she looked discontented. "Dick, if you hadn't sent me and Sophia to Salt City because of that bitch Hesper, we wouldn't have had to find ways to make money by ourselves!""Make money?" Benji had never seen a liar like her before. He snorted coldly. "So this is what it means when people are willing to sell their country for the sake of personal benefits.""You're just a servant..." Julie was about to speak when she met Rickard's gaze and suddenly remembered that she had suffered because of this before. She swallowed the rest of her words with embarrassment.Rickard didn't want to have pointless talks with Julie, so he asked directly, "Who asked you to monitor Ren? When did you start having contact with them?"Julie stuttered for a while. Rickard coldly said, "Don't even think of contacting them anymore. Do

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
