As soon as the call got connected, Renfrew shouted happily, "Mommy!""Mommy!" Zaylour echoed the word almost instantly."Mommy?" Yves sounded a little puzzled."Mom… The heck?" Sherese was straight-up bewildered.Hesper was speechless.Renfrew smacked his phone doubtfully, wondering why his voice seemed to have echoed a few times. He then saw Hesper’s helpless expression and remained a little perplexed for a while."It’s okay, I’m calling you because I want to ask you something."After saying so, Hesper felt a little hesitant deep down. After all, Rickard was getting married with such huge fanfare, and this might hurt Renfrew. She still did not know how Renfrew was feeling..."Mommy?"Hesper shook her head but finally got it out of her. "Do you know that Rickard is about to marry another woman?"Renfrew did not expect what Hesper was going to say. He hesitated for a moment then nodded. "I know about it."‘Sure enough, he knew.’ Hesper felt a little heavy deep down. ‘A lot of

Seeing the hints of resistance in Hesper’s eyes, the smile on Camille’s face remained unchanged. "You can always return this favor to Rickard. I’m helping you as it’s a friendly gesture without much extra cost to myself... That batch of arms is nothing to me. I did so only to give the Deschamps a slightly hard time."Hesper nodded slightly and did not go back and forth with Camille.‘When it comes to someone like Camille, she’s friend material. I can also make her into a pure benefit sharer or a business partner, but I must never become rivals with her.’After figuring this out, the matters that followed could be handled way more easily. And with that, the tasks that Charles left her with had been solved with ease, but Hesper could not make it look as simple as it was, so she had to make the process look more tortuous than it seemed.‘As long as we can resolve this matter perfectly, Charles would naturally let me choose another new project to follow.’Back when Hesper had not reco

In the evening, Hesper brought the informant back to the Deschamps residence. As soon as Pierre saw Hesper dragging the man behind her into the courtyard, he rushed up to greet her and grabbed the man from Hesper. "Ms. Deschamps, you’ve found this person so quickly. Master Deschamps will surely be delighted to see this!""Oh, really?" Hesper turned her head and said with a half-smile. "You seem to know a lot, Mr. Leroux."Pierre stammered for a while, but Hesper did not make things difficult for him and changed the subject instead. "I asked Father about the cameras that I found in my room. It seems that you’re the one who had placed them in there... So please do go to my room and dismantle them now while I bring this man up to see Father.""Yes, Ms. Deschamps."A few beads of cold sweat perspired on Pierre's forehead. After taking a few steps forward, Hesper turned her head all of a sudden and said, "Mr. Leroux, please make sure that you clear my room up. If I still find something

‘In any case, I won’t kill anyone. That's my bottom line. Even Hestia wasn’t degenerated enough to murder someone. I naturally won’t do so.’After thinking about it, Hesper called Zaylour to come over and take the man away."No, but what should we do to him now?" Zaylour looked at the man in his grasp with some disgust. He brought him back only to teach him a lesson, and he did not intend to kill him either. "Charles really knows how to leave you in deep sh*ts, doesn’t he?"If they were to release the informant, who must know a lot about the Deschamps, if any information about the Deschamps were exposed in the future, Charles would definitely put the blame on Hesper’s improper decision-making today.Hesper rubbed the space between her brows and then said, "Lock him up and keep an eye on him for now. Make sure that he doesn’t escape. And set his broken leg; don’t let him die because of it.""Alright." Zaylour shook his head lightly with a hint of playfulness flashing across his eye

Hesper was increasingly puzzled now. If Charles did not care about Elise, why did he protect her so well? But his cold expression just now did not seem fake either.If it was love, it did not seem enough, but if it was not love, such meticulous care could not be explained. "Miss, let's go back together." Pierre noticed Hesper standing still and turned around to point to the sky. "It looks like it might rain soon. With this wind, it's likely to be a heavy one."Hesper nodded and followed him back. *Pierre was right. Not long after they arrived back inside, it began to pour outside. Although she had already warned him on their way back, Hesper still carefully checked the room to make sure there were no surveillance or listening devices before finally lying down and feeling relieved. She had not slept in two days. She was tired, but sleep would not come to her. All she could think of was Elise's abnormal behavior. She had told Hesper to leave quickly. This meant that her mother
A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love Chapter 852
As the realization hit Hesper, her heart sank. She had planned to find an opportunity to ask her mother what she remembered about the past. Her mother must have known more about what happened before Charles came into her life. But now, after just one night, her mother had already forgotten everything again, and Hesper was more convinced than ever that Charles was the one behind her memory loss. He had likely been planning everything from the moment she met him, waiting for the right moment to strike.Playing games with someone like him was too terrifying. Hesper knew nothing about him, yet he seemed to be in control of everything. As she watched Elisa scoop spoonfuls of dessert from her bowl, she suddenly felt that something was off. Her head was also spinning. After a moment, she realized that the dessert was the culprit. Before she came down, Elise already had two bowls of it. Could it be that Charles had been using food to make her lose her memory? Every so often, Charles wou

Gerard, not expecting Hesper to come to the station, tilted his head. Hesper rose to her feet and walked over. "I came here to ask if Officer Dubois has uncovered any new valuable clues within the past two days.""Ms. Rivera, although you are a victim, as a police officer, I can't disclose any information regarding the case to you," Gerard said warily, eyeing her.Hesper did not press on and nodded thoughtfully. "That means you've discovered something new. It's just that you can't tell me."Gerard was stumped. "Ms. Rivera, you didn't come here just to catch up, did you? If you have something to say, please speak plainly. But if you're going to ask me about the case, I'm sorry, but I have no authority to share anything with you."Hesper nodded again before bringing Yves over to Gerard. "My friend over here accidentally overheard that there will be a gun trade tonight in Antellon. I'm not sure if Officer Gerard is interested."Yves looked harmless and had a convincing demeanor, bu

After listening to Hesper's plan, Yves could not help but admire her talent. However, those who worked under Charles should all be wary of Hesper. How could they willingly take the blame for her plan?"Don't worry, I have a way," Hesper said with a smile, causing Yves to shiver all over. He could not help but feel that her smile was full of ill intent. Luckily, it was someone else who was being tricked and not him. Otherwise, he would have nightmares when he went back.'I should leave this kind of thing to Zaylour next time!' he thought inwardly. After sending Yves back, Zaylour asked Yves a lot of questions, wanting to know why he was suddenly excluded from the plan. He looked just like a puppy that had been abandoned by his master, wagging his tail towards anyone that he came across.Hesper pointed to the scar on his face. Zaylour touched his own face, and he puffed his cheeks out in anger before turning and walking into the corner.Hesper looked around but still could not find

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
