Rachael had always treated her that way. Celine hung her head with disappointment and remembered the smell of food in her room when she was in the competition with Hesper. She remembered the scent and Hesper's smile for the longest time. This was the first time she felt regret, but Celine still raised her hand and wiped the moisture away from her eyes. She didn't have a plan B, so everything was her own choice. She couldn't regret it.***Compared to the careful tests, it was too easy for Hesper to know what Rachael and Celine had planned. The Lanes and Sylvie both worked for her, so she would easily be able to find out what games they were playing with a simple investigation. "They're working with Zenovia Lanik?"Hesper read the information before her, but there was something she didn't understand. "I've met her previously and she didn't seem like someone who would choose an unknown designer."On top of that, the dress wasn't that great. Sylvie said in a serious tone. "Ev

Hesper's head ached again when she remembered that."Ma'am… Ma'am?"Sylvie pulled Hesper back. She coughed twice. "Sorry, I zoned out. Could you repeat what you said?"Hestia would zone out a lot previously, so Sylvie was used to it. She repeated what she said. "Mr. Deschamps retracted parts of the funding after he went back. Your marriage with Nathaniel Tucker is annulled too."Hesper didn't think Charles would work so quickly, but it was what she wanted. Hesper would feel disgusted if she had to be tied with Nathaniel for even one more minute. Traitors should go to hell. That was the one rule Hesper lived by. Nathaniel lied to her over and over again and manipulated her. Hesper wasn't going to let him off easily. "I don't think you should attend the dinner party this time."Sylvie's voice was heard again. Hesper turned around and saw her adjusting her glasses, then continued with a formal tone. "I think something might happen if you go."The party wouldn't end well becaus

On the other side, ignoring Hesper's plan, Rachael lost her mind when Zenovia sent her dress back for the third time. "What does she want?"Rachael forced a chuckle. "This won't work, it's not okay. When she agreed, she looked so reluctant. Does she think I love serving her?"“Don't be angry, Queen—" "Don't call me that! I'm Rachael Lane, Rachael Lane!" Rachael swatted Celine's hand away impatiently and took out the dress from the mannequin. "It must be because our people are terrible at communication. I'm personally going over today!"Celine clearly knew that to convince Zenovia. Rachael had to pull the best design they had, the one that even Hesper was happy about. Zenovia was in the industry for years, so she could tell what was good. That was why she agreed. However, all the designs Hesper made had to be hand-sewn and couldn't be rushed. The studio wasn't as good as it looked on the outside. Only Celine was able to do intricate work like that, so they had to let the machin

Rickard lowered his gaze as if he did not want to hear anymore. With that, Benji instantly knew what he meant and understood that Rickard would not change by his words, so he did not say anything else, turned around, and went out.Seeing Benji close the door, Rickard took a deep breath, and his brows gradually furrowed."Hesper..."‘I don’t want to lie to you, if possible.’——A few days passed by very quickly. Since she lost her memory, Hesper had not been paying much attention to the trend for more than half a year. Design trends changed daily, let alone half a year. So in any case, before starting to come up with a draft of her design, she had to go through and think about the design elements that were popular recently.In the end, Hesper managed to finish the design before the dinner party."Great! I knew you could come up with a better design than before if you were given two days to think about it!"Jessie had always trusted Hesper blindly. Looking at the dress in front o

Hesper had already gotten the result that she desired, so she nodded.Although Hesper completely trusted Celine back then, she did not trust anyone else, so she had entrusted Celine with the submission of the copyright for her designs.Looking at the dress on the mannequin, Hesper said, "I reckon that this banquet won’t be as simple of an event as it seems. We don’t know how Nathaniel is feeling now, and I’ve broken off my marriage with him, so it probably won’t be so easy for us to get by it unscathed.""I’ll keep an eye on him at all times."Hesper turned her head when she heard Sylvie’s response, and she squinted her eyes. "Can I trust you, Ms. Ilbert?"Sylvie remained silent for a while, and then casually adjusted her glasses as usual. "Ms. Deschamps, you can, of course, choose to believe me or not, but my job is to serve you.""Okay. Understood."Hesper waved her hand, and Sylvie took her leave, leaving Hesper sitting alone in the afternoon sun.Getting into the database f

Kenji did not know why, but he could not stop feeling that Benji’s intellectual quotient seemed to be getting lower and lower ever since he came back to Genecity. But the last time he got called "Ken" seemed to be a long time ago.Benji only remained cheerful for less than ten seconds then turned blue in an instant."Although Mr. Duval treated Ms. Rivera very poorly a few years ago, it was only because he didn’t love her at that time. Now that the two of them have broken the ice, Mr. Duval is still using Ms. Rivera... This is going a little too overboard.”Kenji looked at Benji in surprise when he heard the words.‘Ever since the two of us started working for Mr. Duval, it could be said that Benji has been admiring Rickard very much. No matter what Rickard said, it was the golden rule, and he’d never question or violate it. Maybe this is one of Hesper’s abilities, to make everyone who knows her feel sorry for her.’But no matter what, Rickard’s order must not be disobeyed, so Benj

A few days whizzed by in the blink of an eye, and it was finally the day of the banquet.Jessie looked at Hesper with some concern. Although she had always believed in Hesper, she had not seen Hesper contacting anyone during this period of time.‘So who is this dress for?’"Are you still thinking about the identity of my model?"Seeing that Jessie had become more and more anxious, Hesper could not help but feel amused, and then said, "How can you be so insensitive and inattentive? Don’t you know that I’ll need a full body measurement in order to complete a perfect dress? But have you seen anyone coming over recently?""No..." Jessie scratched her head but still could not figure out what Hesper meant.Hesper knocked her on the head with her knuckle then stood up straight away and revealed the answer. "I’m still Nathaniel’s wife by name, so who do you think would be more eye-catching than Nathaniel’s wife in a banquet that he's organized?"Jessie’s eyes widened in an instant.‘Oh

At this moment, someone stopped in front of her out of the blue, so Celine raised her head and saw someone who she did not expect to meet that night."Mr. Tucker?"...On the other side of the city, Hesper had already changed into her dress, but Myriade had not sent her the information that she asked for yet.Myriade was one of Nathaniel’s subordinates. Hesper also did not know why she would believe in her words, but until that very second, she still chose to believe in Myriade.‘If Myriade still can’t send anything to me at this moment, it’s probably because Nathaniel has found out about her actions.’The information in the database was not something that could be easily hacked and stolen. Hesper had thought that something might go wrong, but this was also the most important piece of evidence that she could get her hands on now, and she could not afford to have accidents."Is there still no news?"When Jessie walked in and saw Hesper’s solemn expression, she instantly guessed

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
