A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 91

For example, the first year that Hesper went to live with the Lanes, her identity was scrutinized. The

cousin even swore by her life that she would one day kick her out of the family.

The threat was averted only because Matthew handled it.

Hesper was locked in the walk-in freezer for three hours and almost froze to death. When she was let

out, she was freezing from head to

toe and she had lost sensation in her extremities.

She fell very sick and was admitted to the hospital for two months before she recovered.

Arthur Lane flew into a furious rage and punished a lot of people, and that was how Hesper started

having a place there.

Everything that happened after that was all because of how hard she studied the information that was

provided to her.

“Mr. Duval… Mrs. Duval had it tough in the past few years.”

Rickard curled his fingers hard around the documents. He could

imagine what happened based on what was written. All of this

happened because she was kicked out of the Duval family. Thinking of how much she had suffered,

Rickard’s heart felt weary.

“Ask Sophia to come to see me.”

“Yes, sir.”

Benji didn’t know what happened, but he followed his orders and went to get Sophia.

Sophia knew very well that her brother wouldn’t see her without a good reason, but when he did, it was

never about anything good. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

“Mom, what should I do?” She was afraid and held Julie’s hand tight.

“It’s alright. I’ll go with you.”

She didn’t believe that Rickard would do anything ridiculous if she was there.

“You asked to see me, Rickard?” Sophia walked into the study with Julie. She carefully read his face,

but it was cold as usual, so she couldn’t tell.

Seeing how she looked more relaxed, he grabbed the recording pen and threw it at her. “Tell me how

you knew about the test results from the hospital? What else are you and Juniper hiding from me?”

Sophia jumped. She clicked on the pen and listened for a few seconds, then her face turned pale.

“I… I just guessed it!”

“Do you think I’m stupid?” Rickard’s gaze was razor sharp. “How could you get it right if you were only

guessing? You said the exact same thing as the doctor. Sophia, not everyone is as dumb as you!”

“Rickard, how could you speak to your sister like that?” Julie frowned.

Rickard immediately turned his attention to her.

“I haven’t started with you yet. Why don’t you tell me why you loathed Hesper so much three years

ago? You kept insulting her. What did she do to you?”

“I never said that.” Julie wanted to deny it, but the recording

continued playing and her scream was heard throughout the study. It was all the insults she hurled at

Hesper.

Her face twitched as she thought of killing the b*tch. Why was there a recording?

“Dick, she talked back and I got angry and said all the nasty things. Are you going to hold me

accountable for it?”

Rickard took a good look at her. How could they still try to push the responsibility away at that point?

He coldly said, “I won’t hold you responsible, but I’m afraid of how you insulted and tortured her when I

wasn’t around.”
