A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 460

The project Hesper was handling right now was Eustoma's biggest project. Therefore, Pennleigh gave

her some time off, telling her to go home to get some rest while getting her thoughts sorted out.

Since there were still some vegetables at home that she bought last night, she still preferred to make

herself a meal despite having the cookies she made the night before.

When passing by the next door, she saw the butler again and greeted him through the wrought iron

gate. Hesper seemed to have not experienced this kind of neighborly relationship before, but she had

never seen the owner of the house next to hers.

However, most people were working outside at this time. Hesper nodded at the butler and then went

into the house. Compared to Elise, Juniper would pester Hesper from time to time regarding her dress.

Had it not been for her professional ethics, Hesper would have given up since Juniper really annoyed

her.

While she was working on her design, she thought of asking Julian to send her some medicine, and

then she froze.

She did not receive any messages or news from Julian ever since she came to Fredonia. She had

been very busy with various matters, and she had already forgotten his warning.

At that time, Julian told her to stay sharp wherever she went. Honestly, she still could not understand

what Julian wanted to tell her.

As if she had made up her mind, Hesper brought her phone out and sent a message to Julian.

[Hesper: Are you not going back to Halwanest any time soon, Ian?]

The conversation she had with Rickard the other night was not entirely useless. At the very least,

Hesper was sure that Julian's device was being monitored by someone, and he probably knew about it,

which was why he did not say too much to her.

Waiting for a response, Hesper stared at her phone for a while, until she finally saw the "typing"

message on the other side.

"It seems like you're really busy, Dr. Zink. You still have to reply to messages while working."

Julian put his phone away and looked at Riley, who appeared out of nowhere. He glanced towards the

surveillance device in the corner of the lab, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he did not see the

flashing red light.

"What brought you here?" he asked.

Looking at the frown on Julian's face, Riley winked at him. "I've changed into a lab coat and disinfected

myself this time. Are you sure you still want to scold me, Dr. Zink?" This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Julian was speechless and he turned his face sideways. "The medicine from last time should have

been effective. I heard that psycho hasn't had an episode in a long time. Hasn't your purpose in finding

me been achieved? Unless it's necessary, don't risk coming to find me again. It's better for both of us."

Upon hearing this, Riley approached him, his expression turning colder.

"Don't act dumb with me, Dr. Zink," Riley said, maintaining the smile on his face. In the next second, he

pulled a silencer out of his pocket and pointed at Julian's head. "I asked you to develop a medicine that

would make Trez calm down, not a medicine that would make Trez disappear."

"Oh, really?" Julian sneered. "Trez himself is the cause of madness. He's the second personality, yet

he wants to completely take over the body and erase the existence of the main personality. It may

sound easy to do that, but it's actually very hard.

"Also, don't point your gun at me. Do you have the nerves to pull the trigger?"

Riley took a deep breath and put the gun away.

"Of course, I don't. You and your teacher are my boss's most honored guests," Riley said, stretching

out his hand that was wearing a rubber glove and tracing his finger from Julian's chin to his chest. "But

don't you think it's inappropriate for you to contact Ms. Rivera too much, Dr. Zink? Also, who do you

think will be the one to kill you first? Me, or my boss?"
