Chapter 661

"Forget it." Hestia closed the file. Resting for the night wouldn't delay her work too much. So much happened that day, even machines would be tired. Hestia gave herself a break. The nightmare that night was a huge fire. She struggled to get free but was still swallowed by the flames. ***Since she didn't sleep well the night before, she woke up groggy. Jessie woke up early, so when Hestia walked out of her room, she was already busy in the kitchen. Hestia rubbed her eyes. "Since when did you learn to cook?"They both froze after she said that. "Hesper, you remember?"Hestia shook her head. Jessie felt disappointed when she saw how lost she looked. Hestia wanted to say more to defuse the situation but saw Jessie's head hanging low. "I know, you didn't remember. You don't have to explain."Despite that, it showed that there was a chance Hesper's memory would recover. Jessie took the sunny-side-up out from the pan skillfully. She placed the plate on the table and looked at

Hestia raised her brows. Even though she didn't work on anything related to design in the past half a year, she did come across a lot of designers. Designing wasn't a simple task, so Hestia believed that Hesper was someone who would put all her effort into everything she did. However, Hestia believed in her instinct for people. Since that person was her friend, she wouldn't be someone distrustful. She might have been forced. However, no matter the reason, a betrayal is a betrayal, and it was unacceptable. She would take back all the trust and time that she put into it. Seeing how calm Hestia was, Jessie felt anxious. However, she could tell that she was taking care of herself, so she didn't say more. After watching Hestia finish the egg, she smiled. "I make more, do you want another one?"***When she walked out her door, Kenji was waiting for her with the car. "That's so cool. You have your own driver." Jessie turned around and looked at Hestia. "Isaac and Renee aren't w

[Sylvie: The person who bought the studio was Rachael Lane. From the documents I gathered, she seems to be from the Lane family. She took the place of Hesper.]Hestia raised her brows. Sylvie sent the information about Rachael Lane along with everything else too. After opening the file with Rachael's information, Hestia skimmed through it and seemed to understand when people say money brings out the worst in people. However, Rachael didn't seem to be remotely clever. Hestia didn't understand how she managed to take Hesper's place. [Hestia: Find out if Rachael Lane was in contact with anyone before returning to the Lane family.][Sylvie: Alright.]Even though she still had questions, the motive behind Rachael buying Hesper's studio was obvious. She just wanted to annoy Hesper. Rachael didn't know how to manage a company and the people under her were all useless. The studio only looked good from the outside but was in shambles internally. If it wasn't because there was a huge fi

Rachael wouldn't be managing the company's affairs at this hour. The receptionist just wanted to hide, but hearing the busy tone on the phone, all she could do was smile awkwardly at Hestia. "I'm sorry, she's not picking up."Hestia didn't say anything but someone walked out from inside the office."Maisie, what's going on?"Celine heard people talking outside and walked out to check, but when she looked up, she saw two pairs of familiar eyes and wanted to immediately turn and run. "Celine Campbell!"Jessie called out to her when she saw she was trying to run. "Why are you running? Didn't you happily take Hesper's things from her? Now you see that she's back, and you're running away scared?"Celine stood on the spot and didn't dare look at Jessie. She turned to Hesper but realized there was no disappointment or sadness in her eyes. She looked like a stranger to her. Hestia noticed Celine and nodded. "I'm sorry, I've lost part of my memory half a year ago, so I don't remember

The relationships were complicated. Hestia gave up on sounding nice and just stood there while Jessie spoke. Finally, Jessie was tired. Kenji opened a bottle of water and handed it to her. Jessie took two gulps and watched while Celine's head hung lower. "I'm so sorry, I've wronged you.""There's no point saying that now."Hestia held Jessie by her shoulder which made her take a step back, giving Hestia more space to perform. "I know you've been sending money to someone every month. Do you think I don't know who the money was going to?" Hestia sat down on the couch and calmly said, "I just don't understand how you met her and why you would give her money."Celine was sure Hesper knew who she was wiring the money to, so she immediately felt guiltier. "If memory serves me right, you have a missing sister."Hestia wasn't very sure when she said that, but it was too much of a coincidence and the few sentences in the report covering this part didn't prove anything. However, Ce

Rachael walked into her office and carefully closed her door. Celine was balled up in the corner and didn't dare look at her, so Rachael knew her identity was exposed. "There's no need to look at her, I guessed it." Hesper calmly sat on the chair. "Do you think it's hard to guess? You can fake a DNA test, but you can't be the real deal."Rachael guiltily took a step back after hearing that but was still stubborn. "...what proof do you have? I'm part of the Lane family now and you're just a child born out of wedlock. How dare you question me."Hestia had the DNA test results between her and Matthew, but Matthew never exposed Rachael's identity, so he must have had his reasons. Nonetheless, Hestia believed that Matthew wouldn't lie to her because, in the files, Matthew protected her even though he just picked her up from a random place, but he was never close to Rachael. Hestia didn't immediately speak and that made Rachael's heart drop. At first, she thought her identity was u

Kenji paused. This was part of why he was there. Rickard getting involved in Lane family matters wasn't a good idea, but Kenji agreed. Even if they became enemies with Rachael Lane, if he didn't agree, he would have angered Hestia and the Deschamps.Kenji couldn't care less about Rachael Lane, but he still felt annoyed that his hand was forced. "What's wrong? You don't have enough authority to decide this?"Hestia crossed her legs and looked at Kenji with a smile. He cleared his throat and looked at Rachael. "Please hand the agreement to me, Ms. Lane. I'll return it to you if nothing goes wrong." Kenji looked at Rachael without expression. He was half a foot taller than Rachael and it felt intimidating. He had been around a lot, so he wouldn't be someone who was easily dealt with. Rachael shook but didn't hand out the agreement. The agreement wasn't legal, she knew that better than anyone else, so she wouldn't let others just take what belonged to Hesper. "Ms. Lane, give

Hestia didn't want to waste any more time after getting what she came for. She immediately left with Kenji and Jessie, leaving Rachael and Celine looking distraught. "Even though we didn't make Celine pay, you're still so cool!" Jessie gushed after leaving the studio. Even though Hestia thought she was talkative, she still smiled. This friend of Hesper's wasn't bad at all. She would always cheer them up.Even though Kenji felt great carrying out orders, taking the agreement with them put him in an awkward position. He didn't manage to tell Rickard and now this grenade was in his hands. He didn't know if it was a good or bad thing."Don't worry, you followed my orders and did well. If Rickard chastises you, ask him to speak to me." Hestia raised her brows. "I thought you weren't as fun as Benji at first, but now it looks like you're alright."Kenji was speechless because he didn't know if she was praising him or degrading him. He looked at Hestia's back. He changed his mind about

Watching Hestia's expression, Jessie knew she wasn't lying. She clicked her tongue but didn't say anything about it because it was ultimately Hestia's decision. And since she put in a lot of effort, being a little capricious while she suffered from memory loss wasn't a crime. "Alright, there's no need to worry. Just focus on ourselves," Hestia said a little awkwardly. "While you stay by my side, it would be hard for me to not see Rickard. Zikmund will be coming for you sooner or later. Just say my name and don't leave with him, no matter what."Jessie's heart felt warm and gave Hesper a hug. "Thank you!"That was the first time someone got so close to her without warning, so she was stunned. However, Jessie left and didn't give her the chance to react. It didn't seem that annoying.Lowering her head, Hestia sighed then continued reading the information she received. ***Meanwhile, Kenji told Rickard everything that happened that day. There was a long silence afterward while B

Noise was coming from the television next to them. The old man saw Hestia's face flash across the screen of the business news and sighed. "You just can't avoid things that are coming for you."The man in bed wiggled around to express something, but Professor Miles slapped him. "Focus on getting better."That man continued struggling and was unsurprisingly hit a few more times. The old man picked the spots that would hurt the most when he did that, then switched off the television. "There's no need to rush. Look at yourself; there's no way you're going to see anyone in this state." Professor Miles sighed. "I know you're anxious, I am too, but isn't getting better more important? You're only going to bring trouble to Hesper, otherwise."The man couldn't speak, so he just nodded. Professor Miles walked out the door and checked the weather, then sighed and said, "Another few days of rain. I just hope you'll recover sooner."***When Hestia got the information, she didn't have solid p
