All Chapters of A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love: Chapter 531 - Chapter 540

"Wow, you're so kind, Ms. Rivera!" Jessie smiled, throwing in some flattery. Hesper smiled then remembered something. "One more thing.""What?""You mentioned there was something you wanted to tell me when we met.""Yes…" Jessie uncharacteristically became quiet. She pressed her fingers together and looked at Hesper with eager eyes. "Can I not tell you yet?"Hesper sighed. "Tell me if you want to, or don't. But if you come across any problem that you can't solve, come to me.""Alright!"Jessie smiled. However, when Hesper lowered her eyes, her smile faded and was replaced by worry. ***Renee soon got news about Jean Yates. They were completely off the mark. "He works with Carter Wilson?" Hesper frowned as she read what Renee sent over. The document had a clear timeline that showed that Jean used to work for Nathaniel, but then he raked up a huge debt and went to Genecity, where Carter cleared his debt for him and took him under his wing. Hesper sighed with relief when s

Benji shook his head. Since the incident, Daybreak moved out of their base overnight and no one could find their exact location. There was dead silence on their end, and it was obvious they were just delaying so Rickard would die of poisoning. "We have another problem…" Benji said awkwardly. "The young master insists on seeing Mr. Duval. He's a lot smarter than other children Ms. Rivera has been stirring up a storm recently, so now that she's back, he has probably guessed that Mr. Duval is back too."Professor Miles frowned. The offspring of these two brilliant minds could not be dumb. However, there was no way they could let Renfrew see his father in his current condition. There was an alert on his phone. Professor Miles looked down at the message from Hesper. Hesper hadn't been in contact with any of them since her return to Halwanest. The doctor thought that Hesper had given up on Rickard, but she was asking about his condition now.[Miles: How else could he be? He's dying.]

"I'm sorry but Mr. Weber was in a meeting. He's coming over now."Hesper nodded and didn't say more. Renee could tell that Tristan Weber wasn't delayed by anything. He just wasn't giving Hesper the courtesy because she was no longer Ms. Lane of Lane Holdings. "I wonder what big projects Mr. Weber is working on. Isn't the project with Lane Holdings the biggest one he's working on?"Renee smirked, and Hesper raised her hand. The secretary smiled awkwardly. "Ms. Lane, Mr. Weber really was busy, but he's on the way over now. Please be patient."Hesper raised her brow. When Renee got the order, she stood next to her and stopped speaking. After another half an hour of waiting, Hesper sat in the chair with her eyes closed. Before Renee could speak, Hesper opened her eyes and said, "If Mr. Weber won't extend his courtesy, I have no reason to pretend that we were friends."Hesper tilted her head and Renee walked to the doors and pushed them, exposing a linked room. "Mr. Weber, you'v

"...I have an idea," Benji said hesitantly. "The truth is… you could take the 43% held by Mr. Duval.""What?"***On the overnight flight back to Emperion, Hesper was sleepy yet she just couldn't fall asleep. "The agreement you signed with Mr. Duval included various 'personal gifts'. Only the first few didn't contain weird clauses to lower your suspicions. One of them included gifting the shares to you."Hesper couldn't understand what was on Rickard's mind, but his random decision managed to save his own life. "I'm glad I didn't touch those agreements."Matthew was anxious because he would never expect Rickard to put such a huge amount of shares for the huge Duval Group into a tiny clause in the contract. What if Hesper had used them back then…?Hesper was silent throughout the journey home. When she found the agreement Benji told her about, she was relieved. "Yes, that one." Benji looked at the agreement through their video call and seemed more relaxed. "I'm glad it's st

"There's half a minute to go," Benji said stubbornly. "You'll honor what you said, won't you?"Carter chuckled. "What difference will half a minute make?""A lot." The doors to the conference room opened and everyone looked over. Hesper and Renee walked in with subtle smiles under everyone's gazes. "Hello everyone, nice to meet you."Everyone started chattering when they saw Hesper. Although this was the first time Hesper was meeting them, she had been under their radar for some time. She was the woman who managed to take Rickard down all by herself.There was also the love-hate relationship between her and Rickard too. Dressed in a white suit with her hair tied up, Hesper looked powerful. Renee stood behind her, holding a folder with mysterious content. Benji sighed with relief the second he saw her. He was glad he hadn't given up. "Isn't Mr. Wilson anxious to start the meeting? Now that everyone is here, let's begin." Hesper walked to the end of the table and took the mai
