Hesper was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, but she then felt that it was a good idea. After all, Sylvie, Zaylour, and Yves had interacted with each other before this. They could be sent to protect Renfrew as soon as they passed the test."Okay, I’ll leave the arrangement to you."Renee nodded and hung up the phone. Hesper remained silent for a moment and could not help but let out a sigh."Hesper." Matthew’s voice came from outside the door at this time.Hesper went to open the door and saw a person behind Matthew.Seeing Hesper, that person’s eyes instantly dimmed and turned resentful. "Why didn’t you tell me that you returned to Emperion?"It was true that she had not seen Dianthe for a long time, and the lady who had always been rather flamboyant before looked slightly more reserved now.Hesper was also a little surprised and explained herself. "I thought you weren’t in Emperion."Matthew did not stay for long, leaving more time and space for the two ladies.

Looking at Hesper’s somewhat puzzled expression, Dianthe said, "After meeting you last time, he actually told my mother that you’re someone who knows what you’re doing, and if there’s a chance, he‘d like to work with you or something...”Scratching her forehead, she continued, "I think the biggest reason may be that his son likes you? It’s the kid that you met last time. I don’t know if you remember him, but his name is Locke.""Yeah." Hesper had some impression of the little boy, so she nodded and said, "It would be best if he’s willing to come out and see me. I’ve never paid too much attention to Ehren Sulzbach before this. I only found out recently that he’s been studying in Yoshland after I asked my men to look into his background. Other than that, I can’t find out any more information about him."All this only made Ehren even more suspicious. Hesper had also found out before this that the person who stayed in Salt City to keep an eye on Sophia was also Ehren. When everything wa

After Dianthe left, Hesper turned her gaze away for a bit, then looked back at the door and said, "Matt, are you still at the door? I noticed you a while ago. You can come out now.""Aren’t you a keen one?" Matthew came out from behind the door and closed it.Hesper nodded casually. "If I didn't even have the ability to do this, I might not have been able to come back here in one piece."Feeling heavy deep down, Matthew asked, "Do you suspect that the person who wants to kill you and take Renfrew away has something to do with the Sulzbachs?""It might not be the Sulzbachs as a whole, but Ehren Sulzbach must be inseparable from the incident." Hesper’s eyes turned slightly. "I always thought that Ehren was one of Nathaniel’s underlings, so I never paid much attention to him."‘If he took advantage of the opportunity, he would have a lot of space to do whatever he wanted.’"Azariah Sulzbach is Professor Miles, the person who treated Renfrew and me before." Hesper turned her head aro

Hesper frowned, and without waiting for her to say anything in response, Dianthe continued. "I just sent you the time and address of the venue, and the appointment is fixed at noon tomorrow.""Tomorrow afternoon?"‘It’s no wonder Dianthe said that Silvan seemed to sound rather forthright and anxious.’Hesper got caught up in her own thoughts as Dianthe hung up the call. She immediately sent a message to Sylvie, asking her to send Zaylour and Yves to Emperion.‘My plans can never keep up with all these changes. Although Silvan seems friendly, I still have to be on guard. It’s better to be safe than sorry. And even though my fighting skills are above average, it’d be difficult for me to fight back if the other party gangs up on me.‘And if something like that happens, I might not be able to get out of it. Although Zaylour and Yves can’t be completely trusted, it’s safer to bring them along than to walk into potential danger by myself.’Hesper looked out the window.‘Although there

Hesper was a little surprised, but the two of them had arrived at the door of Arthur’s room.Arthur patted the back of Hesper’s hand and said, "Do whatever you want to do. I won’t stop you."After saying so, Arthur walked into the room and closed the door behind him.After finally getting to breathe a sigh of relief, Hesper felt rather complicated deep down, but her appointment with Silvan was only hours away, so she could only turn around, go downstairs, and arrange for Zaylour and Yves to settle in first."About the person that we’re meeting today, I’ve never had any interaction with him, but if he’s capable of taking charge of the entire Sulzbachs, he mustn’t be some pushover."Although according to what Ehren said before, the main reason why Silvan was appointed as the person in charge of the Sulzbachs was that the two of them were the only ones left in the entire Sulzbachs lineage, and Ehren himself was disabled. That was why Silvan took over as the patriarch of the Sulzbachs
A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love Chapter 888
When she said so, Silvan did not seem very astonished, so Hesper continued with a cold expression, "Since you now know why I wanted to meet, I hope you can be as open and honest as possible. Otherwise, I’ll consider you as an accomplice."Hearing Hesper’s unceremonious words, Silvan looked slightly surprised. He shook his head and then explained, "Although I understand how you feel, I don’t really know much about Ehren either."Hesper raised her eyebrows when she heard the explanation, and Silvan continued, "Ms. Rivera, you should know that Ehren hasn’t been very close to me since he was a child. He’s always had low self-esteem because of his leg injury, so he seldom talked to me, his elder brother."Later on in life, he went abroad to study, and ever since he left, the only thing that still linked us together was money." Silvan stared at Hesper sincerely. "After he went to Yoshland, the person with whom he had the most frequent contact was none other than Nathaniel. I think, deep d

"We brothers are the only ones left in our generation. Ehren has always been very sensitive and had low self-esteem ever since he was a kid, so he’d be persuaded into being used by some wicked men. It's all because I didn't do a good job of educating him as his elder brother."Taking a deep breath, Silvan looked a little guilty. "If you’re willing to give him another chance, I promise you that I’ll keep a close eye on him from now on and prevent him from doing any bad things to you again."Hesper nodded when she heard his words and then leaned slightly forward. "Then, Mr. Sulzbach, do you know that I was almost killed while on my way home the other day?"Silvan’s pupils constricted. Since the two of them were very close to each other, Hesper could clearly see the sudden and minor change in his eyes, but the only emotion that could be found in Silvan’s face was pure shock. No one could see anything wrong with his expression."I really didn't know about this incident, Ms. Rivera. I’m

"I always thought you were someone who would never go to the extreme when it comes to dealing with people."The corners of Hesper’s lips curled upward. "I’ve always been someone who does things to the extreme. This only shows me that you still haven’t done enough to get to know me... So, can you call and ask your uncle for his opinion on this matter?"Silvan remained quiet for a short moment then let off a smile all of a sudden and nodded. "Of course, I’ll contact Uncle Azariah now."Hesper stood aside and watched as Silvan dialed Azariah’s number on his phone. After a while, the other party answered the call, and a familiar voice came from the other end of the call. "What’s the matter? Why would you give me a call when you’re out?""Master, it’s me."As soon as Hesper said so, Silvan was astounded. The person on the other end also went silent for a second or two before responding. "Why are you with Silvan? Weren’t you in Fredonia a while ago?"It was indeed Professor Miles’s voi

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
