A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 238

After what happened, no matter what Renfrew wanted to do, Hesper would first check the height

requirement and wouldn’t let the awkward situation happen again.

Maybe the fear during the Drop Tower overpowered her other emotions, but Hesper forgot about what

happened with Rickard and ignored him as she held onto Renfrew’s hand.

Rickard didn’t want to get in between them. Whenevér Renfrew asked for something, he would come

forward and pay for it, but he would just quietly follow behind them the rest of the time.

They stayed at the amusement park until closing time and watched the fireworks show that was only

shown on Sundays.

Renfrew rarely slept late, so by the time the fireworks ended, Renfrew was resting his head on

Hesper’s shoulder, just trying to finish watching the parade. Rickard stood aside and watched them

both.

Hesper took a deep breath and controlled her anger as she said, “What are you looking at? My arm is

going numb. Can’t you take him?”

Rickard looked at her, seeming amused, then walked over quietly and whispered into her ear, “Because

I don’t have to pretend to be a caring man anymore, I’m just enjoying watching you struggle.”

Hesper never saw this side of him, so she clenched her jaw, smiled, and nodded. “You’re… as

shameless as a pig.”

“Thanks.”

Even though he said all that, Rickard still took Renfrew from Hesper’s arms. Renfrew felt that he was

being taken and was going to open his eyes when he smelled the familiar scent of his dad, so he just

adjusted his head and continued sleeping.

“Alright, that’s all for today. See you next week.”

Rickard handed the agreement to Hesper. “Take care of it. There’s only one copy of that.”

It was late by the time they were leaving, so Isaac came to get her.

Hesper read the agreement in the car. Rickard’s actions were unexpected. She couldn’t understand it.

To be exact, the way Rickard acted was new to her, as though the man that she had known for the past

decade was a different person.

There really was nothing wrong with the agreement and Rickard’s signature was the one she knew, so

nothing was off.

Placing the agreement aside, she rolled down the window slightly and closed her eyes.

The wind blew in through the crack and messed up her hair. The soft sweater brushed against the skin

on

her neck. It was ticklish.

“Aren’t you happy to see the young master?”

Isaac saw how quiet she was and was a little worried. He looked into the rear-view mirror and saw

Hesper shaking her head.

“No, I was just thinking about something else.”

Hesper told Isaac about the agreement. He didn’t understand why someone would give away such a

valuable thing to her… He couldn’t help but feel that there must be some ulterior motive.

The Duval Group and Lane Holdings were competitors! Especially now, they were both trying very hard

to

get their hands on each others’ properties. Willing the bid was no easy feat, so giving it away just like

that

wasn’t his style. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

It probably wasn’t because of love… Was it?
