After her eyes adjusted to the light, Hesper finally saw the person before her. The moment she gazed upon the face, her expression turned ice-cold, as if freezing instantly.The other person had certainly noticed her reaction and wore a smirk. "Surprised to see me, Ms. Rivera?"He stepped slowly into the darkness. The last time Hesper had felt such immense hatred and wrath was when she faced Nathaniel, who had betrayed her although she trusted him the most. It was indeed a checkmate."Mr. Simmon, you seem quite pleased with yourself," Hesper said with a cold, stern expression. "I admit that you've deceived and outsmarted me."Sullivan lowered his gaze, studying the tumultuous emotions brewing in Hesper's eyes. Then, a trace of inexplicable emotion flashed across his eyes as he said, "It's nothing. I investigated you a long time ago."Did you know, Ms. Rivera, that you're very susceptible to being soft-hearted? It's your biggest weakness." Sullivan extended his hand, attempting to

On the other side, all available personnel had been mobilized to search for Hesper, but there was still no sign of her.Frankie had meticulously taken care of all the details, and with Sullivan's men intermingled within the search teams, they swiftly reacted to any significant leads. As soon as the teams received noteworthy news, they were there to turn around and address it promptly.Sullivan's guess had been correct. Rickard harbored no immediate suspicions about him, bolstering Sullivan's confidence. The Andersons were merely pawns for him to reciprocate Hesper's kindness. Moreover, he had already made arrangements for the members of the Andersons' collateral family, ensuring that everything proceeded smoothly according to his plan.Meanwhile, even though Rickard had chosen to keep Hesper's disappearance a secret, the Lanes received the distressing news."Hesper is missing." Benjamin frowned, reading the words on the letter. He closed his eyes briefly, then turned to inform the

Matthew's words cut deep, not just because of their hurtful nature but also because they hinted at the grim reality Hesper might face. Elise still didn't know the nature of the item Benjamin had hidden away. Still, she understood its immense importance given Benjamin's years of secrecy and his decision to entrust it to Hesper. Handing it over would put countless lives at risk down the line. They had faced difficult choices before, and this one was no different."I won't allow it. I won't allow the two of you to endanger Hesper again," Matthew declared coldly. He had already sensed that they had made up their minds, and his words were laced with sarcasm."She should have never forgiven you." With those parting words, Matthew turned and left the room.As Elise watched her son's departing figure, she couldn't hold back her tears any longer.'Why us? Why must we bear the responsibility of saving the world, even if it means sacrificing our own daughter? We've come this far, so close to

Riley's memory wasn't as exceptional as Hesper's, but when he felt a sense of familiarity with someone, it indicated that he had met them before; otherwise, he wouldn't have such inexplicable thoughts.The challenge lay in the fact that Riley had encountered numerous people in his life. During his time as a professor, he had taught countless students, and later, as a doctor, he had treated a multitude of patients.However, the issue was that Riley had never resided in Montequinto for an extended time; he had only visited on occasions when working for Nathaniel. So, how could he have had the opportunity to meet someone like Murray?One must understand that Murray was not just an ordinary individual in Montequinto; he held significant power within the Simmons family, a level that Riley had never come close to reaching in his previous or current roles.But Riley didn't immediately mention this to Rickard, as he himself couldn't piece together all these scattered and chaotic pieces of

Being trapped in unchanging darkness day after day, Hesper couldn't see a way to escape. However, the introduction of a new variable could change everything.'If Murray genuinely wants to help me, that would be the best outcome. If it's all a ruse, that's fine too. To gain my trust, he'll have to try harder. I won't doubt this.'As long as things continue on this path, there will surely be a turning point for the better.'Hesper forced herself to stay calm and think every day. She also made an effort to maintain her physical and mental condition, all in the hope that when the opportunity arose, she would be ready to seize it.Maintaining her composure at this point was a testament to Hesper's resilience.This was a grueling tug-of-war, but Hesper would never let her will erode little by little during a period of despair. She knew that Rickard was still looking for her.'Many are still searching for me. They haven't given up on me, so I mustn't give up on myself either.'With tha
