A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love

Chapter 680



But no matter what, it now seemed that the wedding was already on the verge of completion. When Rickard thought of this, even though he knew that it was just a role-playing facade, he still felt a little bitter about it.

Apart from Rickard, the other person who could not accept the wedding the most was Renfrew.

"Young Master Renfrew's condition has improved, but..." The doctor shook his head.

Rickard had already guessed the result, so he calmly nodded and asked Benji to send the doctor off.

After returning to the Duval residence, Benji's expression looked slightly annoyed. His gaze swept across the room and landed on Renfrew, who had curled himself up in a corner and showed almost no inclination of communicating with others. Benji looked back at Rickard.

"I didn't think Hestia couldn't even tolerate Young Master Renfrew. She clearly knows about the young master's condition, yet she couldn't be bothered to lie to him."

Benji was so angry that he did not even address Hestia as Ms. Deschamps or Ms. Rivera. The Hestia that he knew now was clearly not the same person as the woman who was formerly known as Hesper. And only now did Benji realize how kind Hesper was. At least she was not as cold-blooded and heartless as Hestia!

Rickard actually understood what Hestia was thinking.

'To her, Renfrew has never been a part of her plan at all, so whether she gets called out for being cold-blooded or heartless, at the end of the day, Renfrew's existence will only sidetrack her original plan. Hestia could, of course, say something to lie to Renfrew, but even if it's something as simple as putting on a show, the price-performance ratio is still a little too low to her.'

Thinking of this, Rickard pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling rather distressed.

"We don't have many options right now, so the only thing we can do now is not let Renfrew see Hestia, at least not until she's regained her memories." Rickard put his hands down, looked at the lonely figure squatting in the corner of the room in the distance, and added, "Hesper is Renfrew's only cure, but the woman that we now know is only a stranger who shares the same appearance as Hesper."

Although she knew that Nathaniel would do his best to give her a glamorous and exorbitant wedding ceremony, Hestia still felt a little awed when she saw the venue that he had prepared.

If she had not been one of the parties who agreed to the marriage agreement, she might feel that the wedding looked so romantic and luxurious that it felt a little wasteful. Nathaniel had heard that Hestia was coming over, so he appeared behind her right on time.

"You're rather early."

Hestia turned her head and instantly thought of what Matthew had told her and what she had seen in the documents before.

If it weren't for all those things that proved that Nathaniel would not fall in love with Hesper, even she would have fallen into a trance for a moment or two.

Thinking of this, Hestia turned her head again and took a better look at the entire wedding venue.

"This isn't necessary; we're just putting on a play. How many people do you think will actually come?" Hestia took a few steps forward, and Nathaniel followed behind her with a smile, maintaining a distance of only half a meter away from her.

"Don't be so heartless. I've put all my heart into preparing our wedding ceremony."

Hestia had no words for this.

She also did not want to discuss this issue with Nathaniel again. No matter how beautiful his words were, she had already experienced Nathaniel's ability to come up with such banana oil, so it was better for her to talk about something more practical instead of wasting time with him.

"Have you found out more about the Sulzbachs? And has Ehren heard from his second uncle?"

Hestia's calmness caused Nathaniel to freeze for a second. He shook his head and elaborated, "If there's any news, Ehren will get in contact with you as soon as possible. As long as you haven't heard from him, it means he hasn't heard from his uncle either."

Hestia understood the reason why this matter could not be rushed, but the price that she had invested into this matter had already started to cost her. So if she still could not get what she wanted, she had already lost.

"This marriage doesn't mean much, to begin with, Mr. Tucker, so you should be able to decide things. All of this is unnecessary."

Hestia's words sounded almost heartless, and Nathaniel was about to say something when her cell phone rang.
