Chapter 831

"...What's wrong?" Hearing the loud angry growl from her manager, Zenovia started feeling anxious. A video was sent over soon after the call ended. [Manager: Look at this. Your agreement with our company is officially canceled. This is so terrible.]Ignoring the tone, Zenovia tapped on the video with a shaky finger. It was the video of her arguing with Willow Harris at the cafe. It was a clear video, so there was no way she could wiggle her way out of this. [Zenovia: Where did you get this?][Manage: Where did I get this? Everyone probably has a copy by now. Just search online. Come over to cancel your contract this afternoon, or we'll sue you for breach of contract.]Zenovia opened Twitter with a throwaway account and watched as the trending topic went from Hesper to herself. She tapped in with numbness in her heart and it was filled with the videos from that day. Willow called over too but Zenovia didn't answer because she was losing her mind seeing what was trending.

Seeing more and more comments siding with Hesper, Zenovia's eyes burnt. Her hard work in the entertainment industry was destroyed in a day, all because of Hestia Deschamps. Zenovia finally felt regret at that moment, not because she targeted Hestia but because she hadn't chosen a better way to deal with her. She laid on the carpet, hair strewn, oblivious of the person getting closer to her. "Hestia… I won't let you get away with this even after I die." Zenovia's tears rolled down her face, but what she didn't expect was a sharp knife to glide across her neck a second later. Her eyes were wide open from disbelief but the killer chuckled. "I guess you'll have to haunt her then."***After calming the storm online, Hesper finally removed Willow from her blocked list, but within the next five minutes, Willow called. Hesper put her on speaker and placed her phone on the desk. Surprisingly, Willow didn't say anything but Hesper could hear that her breathing was shaky even throug

Hesper didn't have a reason to worry since she wasn't involved in this, but 'Hestia' didn't have a clean record in Fredonia. Hestia managed a lot of the Deschamps family business in the past six months. Although the police didn't have conclusive information on whether the two things were linked…Hestia used to use a butterfly knife. The killer planned this to create problems for her. "What do we do now?" Renee stood up. Hesper shook her head. "Don't worry, if I'm dragged into this, Charles Deschamps won't be able to protect his family, so he would find a way to remove me from the list of suspects. I'm just thinking…" Hesper rubbed her knuckles. "I'm just thinking, what's the killer's motive? To make me stay in Fredonia?"Even though they never came up with a reason, the police got to Hesper. "Ms. Rivera, we need you to come with us."The police were investigating her. Renee worriedly looked at her, but Hesper shook her head and walked out with the officers. That night, the

"You're no longer a suspect, Ms. Rivera."Hesper expected that, so she nodded and looked toward Gerard. "You seem to have more questions for me. I can tell you confidently that Zenovia's death is unrelated to me."There was no evidence to prove otherwise, and even though Hesper didn't sound very convincing, Gerard was confident Hesper was innocent. That was the truth. She didn't have a motive. Still, Gerard had his suspicions.Hesper looked at him with her clear eyes. Gerard cleared his throat and said, "You can leave now."Hesper walked out of the room with Gerard without saying anything more. Renee waited in the waiting room and immediately walked over while looking worried when she saw Hesper walking out. Hesper was bothered. She was there for less than an hour and they weren't going to beat a confession out of her, so there was no need for Renee to be so worried. "I'm fine." Hesper smiled as she turned to face Gerard. "I'm sorry that this is happening, but I have some ideas

"Oh." Renee was relieved. "But why do you think Xander murdered Zenovia? They don't seem to know each other.""I don't think it's him." That surprised Renee. Hesper calmly said, "I don't know a lot about Zenovia's death, but it was true that Xander tried to kill me, so there's nothing wrong if Gerard investigates him."Renee's lips twitched. Hesper continued, "An outlaw like Xander wouldn't have a clean record. If he had a record, Gerard would have more information than we do."Renee understood, so she nodded and changed the subject. "Willow called me a few times after you left. They know you've acquired the company and the agreement has been canceled. I guess… this has come to an end."Hesper was silent for a few seconds, then nodded. "Thanks for the hard work."Hesper just wanted to send the things Zenovia got from her back, but never would she imagine this to end in Zenovia's death. Even though Hesper didn't do it, the butterfly knife would still be linked to her. They were t

That was why even though she knew that going back to the Deschamps would be highly risky, and she had enough reasons to not return, Hesper had to risk it one last time. "Don't worry, I'm confident."Hesper frowned slightly. The first thing she would do after going back would be to win Charles's trust. She didn't know the actual situation and what was going on in Charles's mind, so she was actually not confident at all. However, if she didn't say that, Renee and Zoya wouldn't have let her go. Renee sighed. Hesper already made up her mind and she could tell from the look in her eyes. "Call me if you need anything." When she looked up again, Renee's eyes were red. "You're my most important mistress, friend, and family."Hesper sighed, then patted her hand. "Don't worry, I'll come back in one piece."Zoya watched as Hesper consoled Renee. Then she lowered herself to face Zoya. "I'll bring you to visit Ren at Genecity when I'm back. I'm sure he wants to see you.""Alright, I k

"You left for so long. I missed you a lot."Her thin eyelids weren't able to hold back her tears, so they escaped and dropped onto Hesper's hand. Hesper felt guilty but she couldn't tell her the real reason for her absence. All she could do was reach out to hug Elise. "I'm back now." Hesper disregarded the strangeness that she felt when she saw her mother. Elise led her to the couch and sat down. "I know you've been busy working and I heard your dad say you've found your biological family. I'm really glad."Hesper shook her head and looked at Elise longingly, then said, "You'll always be like my biological mother in my heart. Even after I've found my family, I still respect and love you."Elise's eyes turned red again and they looked sad. Hesper knew Elise wouldn't be able to handle the emotional strain, so she changed the topic. "I'll be staying here for a while. Even though there's a lot to be done in my country, I want to spend some time with you.""You don't have to." Elise

Chapter 838

Worried that Charles would find a way to test her, she placed the book down and spoke first. Hearing Hesper's voice, Charles snapped back, cleared his throat, and sat down. "When you returned this afternoon, Pierre told you I've been busy with work, right?"It really was about that. Hesper knew this would be her all-access pass to return to the Deschamps family business. If she performed well, Charles wouldn't suspect a thing and would temporarily access her, but if she didn't do well… She wouldn't underperform because she would grab the chance. "It's nothing really. The Moreaus who trade firearms delayed a batch of shipments. I heard the promising eldest daughter will be marrying Rickard Duval, so I don't think we'll ever get the shipment."They still ended up getting involved with Camille and Rickard. Charles probably handed this to her because he knew what was going on. "It was nothing, but Camille Moreau has one of our informants." Charles subconsciously reached for his

Elise fell silent but then nodded. "I'll be waiting for you."They slowly walked to her room then Hesper finally came to a realization. "Won't you go in and see Dad?""No, we've known each other for years and we see each other a lot. It's alright if we don't see each other for a day." Elise shook her head and continued. "Tell me if there's anything you don't feel like doing. Even if your dad asked you, I can make sure that you don't have to do it."Hesper was a little surprised, but after looking into Elise's eyes, she shook her head and said, "I know what I'm doing, Mom."Seeing how firm she was, Elise knew Hesper wasn't lying, so she sighed. "I'm a little tired." The emotions in her eyes faded and she looked like her kind self again. "I was a little too excited to see you back. It would be wonderful if you could always stay by my side, not going anywhere or thinking about anything. Just be my child."That was the moment Hesper realized that something was wrong with Elise, but

Elise walked into the room and sat on the soft stool not too far away from her, watching her sleep. She didn't get closer because she didn't want to wake her. The door was suddenly opened again. Elise turned around and saw Charles standing there, letting the light from the corridor spill in. The light was behind Charles, so his face wasn't clearly seen. "It's late, aren't you going to rest yet?"Elise took another look at Hesper who was fast asleep, lowered her gaze and sighed, then stood up. "I just want to see our daughter. I haven't seen her in a long time.""You can spend more time with her tomorrow. It's late." Charles lowered his voice to avoid waking Hesper. "You have a lot of time to spend together."Elise followed him out the door and closed it. The room returned to silence. A few minutes later, Hesper opened her eyes, which looked awake. She wasn't sleepy at all. She did fall asleep a while ago while she was deep in thought, but she was a light sleeper, so when Elise
