Chapter 741

Author: Oopsie Daisy
Hestia’s keenness was within his expectation, so Professor Miles shook his head and explained, "He’s one of my seniors... He’s very talented, but just like Julian, he strayed away from the righteous way and walked down a path of no return."

Seeing that it was not a memorable past, Hestia did not ask any further and resumed pounding the herbs.

"By the way... Rickard and Matthew are on the brink of losing their minds as they search for you. Will there be any issue if you choose to not go back now?"

Professor Miles had witnessed Rickard’s obsession with Hesper. In his opinion, these two people just hadn't figured out their feelings for each other. Even though they were in love, they refused to admit it, so no one actually knew what would happen to the both of them in the end.

This was Hestia’s first time hearing news from the outside world. She hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. "I have to figure out something by myself. As for Hesper, she’s been missing for so long, they sh

    ‘As long as Ms. Deschamps stays in Halwanest for another day, interactions with Rickard Duval will be inevitable.’Sylvie could only pray inwardly that Charles would locate Hestia soon after he arrived in Halwanest so that they could all go back and not create any more troubles that would make her life harder.Sighing, Sylvie looked out the window. Genecity’s traffic was still hectic at this time."Ms. Deschamps, where are you...?"...Renfrew was woken up by a puff of thick smoke. He opened his eyes in a daze and saw a puff of black smoke suffusing into his room from outside through the crack of the door. His heart skipped a beat.‘What happened?’"Cough cough..."After putting on his slippers and running out of his room, Renfrew saw Hestia sitting in front of a small pot, staring at it with her brows furrowed. The small pot in front of her was what produced the thick billowing black mist, which was still wafting out at that moment.."Renfrew, what are you doing out here?"S

    Although Hestia was a little confused, she followed Professor Miles away from Renfrew’s room."Did I do something wrong today?" Hestia asked nervously.Hearing that, Professor Miles shook his head and praised Hestia. "You did a good job today. In only two days, you’ve managed to do what others who've studied medicine for a year or two could.”Hestia was stunned when she heard the compliment.Professor Miles continued. "From today onwards, you’ll start to formally study the ways to diagnose patients with me. We have to remember that you won’t be staying with me for long, as we can’t keep you MIA for the rest of your life, can we? You’ll be going back very soon."Professor Miles was only telling the truth, but Hestia nodded first and then asked, "Then about the recovery of my memory... Will you be coming with me, Master?"Hearing the appellation "Master" coming from Hestia, Professor Miles was startled at first, and then his gaze slightly softened."You’ve really underestimated me

    Hestia never thought that the person that she had been looking for was by her side all this while.‘But if this is the case, considering his age, Professor Miles mustn’t be the person that Father is looking for.’‘Then that leaves me with only one person… Skylar Sulzbach, the person who’s been missing for years.'"There’s no need to bring my past up." Professor Miles waved his hand. "I can only tell you that Charles is by no means a good person. After marrying your mother, he indeed settled down a little compared to how he was in the past and he hadn't stepped foot in Halwanest ever again, so I turned a blind eye to him as a person."Hestia frowned, and Azariah continued, "Now that he’s coming over to Halwanest, there must be countless people watching him from the shadows, so he won’t leave the country before he finds you."That was the reason why they had only one week left.Renfrew’s condition had actually been improving during this time, and Hestia could feel that it was not t

    "Find a way to confuse the Deschamps and don’t let them track Hestia down," Rickard said. "No matter what, let her finish what she wants to do."...Ever since she officially started to learn about Halwanese medicine from Azariah, Hestia could not help but feel that time passed very quickly. Renfrew would sometimes sit to the side and listen, looking extremely obedient and well-behaved. But probably because all he had learned since he was a kid was about computing and hacking field, he knew nothing when it came to medicine.However, Hestia’s speed of picking things up was a little too surprising. Even in just seven days, Azariah was often surprised by her talent."Although you’re a quick learner, I still can’t teach you much in just seven days." Azariah sighed. "You can consider yourself my official apprentice now. I’ll teach you everything that I’ve ever learned in my life in order to not let my reputation go down the drain."In the blink of an eye, it was already the seventh day

    Although it was only a few sentences, Hestia could hear that Azariah and the unknown man stood opposite to her father in all aspects of life. Not only that, they also knew Hesper‘s parents in person.Charles’s stern and decisive way of doing things had indeed attracted a lot of hatred and enmity onto himself, but Azariah seemed to be very familiar with Charles as if he was someone he had met when he was young but had since sworn to never see again in his life."Mommy, you shouldn’t eavesdrop." A hint of condemnation flashed across Renfrew’s eyes. "Grandpa Azariah has been treating you very well."Hestia knew that it would be difficult for her to repay Azariah after what he had done for her, not to mention that he had taken her in as his disciple, so she should not doubt Azariah. However, there were already many mysteries surrounding her that she had to discover urgently, so she had to do this in order for her to be less perplexed."I promise that I won’t take advantage of someone e

    "Matthew..."Before Hestia could say anything, a hug occupied her mind.Hestia wanted to say something at first, but Matthew’s hug was so forceful that she could feel him trembling. Thinking of Matthew’s past, Hestia suddenly could not bear to push him away as she wanted to solve the problem first and waited for the lengthy hug to come to an end....Is this the indecisiveness that Professor Miles said?"Thank God you’re safe. I almost died of anxiety all this while." Matthew finally let her go and took a closer look at her. Seeing that she did not seem to have gotten hurt or suffered any grievances, he breathed a sigh of relief. "During these past few days, I was afraid of receiving news about you, but I was also worried that I wouldn’t any receive news at all."Looking into Matthew’s gaze, Hestia’s tone softened subconsciously."I’m fine."Although Hestia’s attitude was quite different from before, Matthew could tell that she still had not regained her memory. He broke away fro

    As if she was worried that Hestia would not understand what she was trying to say, Jessie added, "I mean, you’re not an ordinary person because you are who you are. Whether you’re Hesper Rivera or Hestia Deschamps, you’re still going to be a special woman."Seeing Jessie hastily explaining herself, Hestia’s eyes squinted into a grin. "Then if you have the power to choose, would you choose to keep me or Hesper by your side?"Jessie became silent, hesitated for a moment, and then shook her head. "We’ve known each other for a very long time. In fact, I’ve always thought of you as Hesper. You have no idea just how similar you are to her. In fact, you are her; it’s just that you’ve forgotten about us. Actually, I don’t want to choose, but if I had to, I’d choose you over Hesper."Hestia was a little shocked.‘Jessie and Hesper have been friends since college, so I thought she must be hoping that I’ll regain Hesper’s memories so that she won’t have a fake friend forever.’"Why so?"Jes

    Looking at Hesper’s back, Benji suddenly realized something. "Could it be that Ms. Rivera has recovered her memory?! Her gaze from just now looks extremely familiar. Ms. Deschamps never looked at me with such a polite gaze!"Kenji was a little perplexed. Although he did not know what Benji meant by Hesper’s gaze, Benji looked so certain that it was probably true.‘So... Now that Hesper has recovered her memory, why is she here looking for Mr. Duval?’Thinking of this, the two exchanged again. "Ms. Rivera has recovered her memory, but she’s not here to seek revenge from Mr. Duval, is she? The relationship between the two of them had calmed down a little not long ago!"Kenji shook his head, and half a minute later, both of them were sticking their ears against the door of Rickard’s office and seemed to be able to hear what was being said inside through a tiny gap in the door.The moment Rickard saw Hesper, he already knew that she had regained her memory. The two of them exchanged g

    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.
