A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 425

Hesper clenched her fists and comforted herself, ‘A small concessión can lead to greater success.

That being said, Stephen’s countenance was pale and Hesper was worried about him. “Last time the

doctor said that the cause of your Illness was unknown, and both times it was because of me. Will

there be any problem?”

“What could go wrong?” Stephen replied impatiently. “Stop worrying. What could happen to me? It’s

just that I thought of some things I couldn’t think of before. I’m used to it.”

Hesper suddenly felt that Stephen was pitiful. There were so many memories in his mind, but he could

not remember them no matter what, and they kept haunting him…

“Leave the canned peaches and go,” Stephen said with a pout. “How did you know that this is one of

my favorite foods? Anyway, don’t ever try to buy me off. I’m not that easy to please.”

‘Really?’

Hesper nodded with a suppressed smile.

It seemed to her that he was pretty happy to receive the canned peaches.

“You told me last time when you were sick. Did you grow up in Emperion? Before I went to Emperion, I

didn’t know that we needed to eat canned peaches when sick.”

Hesper remembered the first year when she returned to Emperion. She fell seriously ill due to a relapse

of the injury from her suicide attempt and could not eat anything. At that time, Arthur had the kitchen

maid cook her some canned peaches, which she now remembered as particularly sweet.

She confirmed several times and made sure that Stephen was all right before she was swept out of the Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

door by him.

Hesper did not know why she found Stephen so approachable. Even though he was a strange person,

she just could not help but tease him.

After she left Stephen’s place, she received a call from Pennleigh.

“You want me to go there now?” Hesper took a look at the time. Usually, if she did not have time,

Pennleigh would not ask her to come to Eustoma since he knew that she had classes.

“Yeah. I have something to discuss with you,” Pennleigh said calmly, “If you have time, come over now.

If not, come when you’re free.”

“I’ll go there now,” Hesper replied as she hopped in the car since she was available. “It’s just that I’m

pretty far from Eustoma now, so it may take some time.”

“It’s okay, no rush. Take care on the road,” Pennleigh replied.

When she arrived at Eustoma, Hesper went straight to Pennleigh’s office.

To her surprise, there was someone else there besides Pennleigh. Seeing her, Pennleigh quickly

blinked his eyes and cleared his throat before saying, “Hesper, you’re here.”

Hesper was stunned. Before coming, Pennleigh’s tone on the phone was a bit off, but she thought It

was just her overthinking things.

“Don’t Just stand there. Come over here,” Pennleigh said as he walked toward Hesper. However, he

was stopped by a woman beside him.

“Don’t go near her, Just say what you have to say here.”

The woman was dressed elegantly and had a face that looked very similar to Pennleigh’s.

“You’re Hesper?” she asked, scrutinizing Hesper.

Understanding instantly dawned upon Hesper and she could not help but laugh inwardly. “Yes, madam,

I’m Hesper. Has Pennleigh been talking to you about me?”
