Speaking of which, she was focusing on saving the young girl earlier, and she was then anxious about
getting to know more about Hesper Rivera’s past. With all that on her mind, Hestia really forgot that she
should be curious about the identity of the person on the other end of the call.
‘It seems that this man is filthy rich, and he’s able to find out about me in such a short time, so he’s
certainly not someone to be trifled with.’
"My name is Nathaniel Tucker." Nathaniel paused and continued. "Ms. Deschamps, you might not have
heard of me, but you should’ve heard of Daybreak, right?"
Hestia liked communicating with smart people, so she raised her eyebrows when she heard Nathaniel’s
introduction. "If the Daybreak that you’re referring to is the Daybreak that I know, I can only say that
you, Mr. Tucker, are indeed a very remarkable man."
Nathaniel chuckled. "It seems that I don’t have to waste more energy trying to introduce myself. You
must have felt a lot of emotions ever since returning to Genecity, didn't you, Ms. Deschamps? And I
wonder if you’ve felt any strange emotions deep down when you saw Rickard Duval."
"What do you want to say? I’d prefer it if you stop beating about the bush."
She did not have the time to play riddles, so Nathaniel responded directly.
"To be completely truthful with you, I know Hesper Rivera. That’s you before your amnesia." Nathaniel’s
voice sounded unhurried. "I adored you but couldn’t get you. That’s why Rickard is like a thorn in my
flesh. So, if you’re planning to get rid of him, why not cooperate with me?"
"..."
Nathaniel was extremely direct with his suggestion, and Hestia remained silent for a moment.
"You should know that I’m Hesper Rivera, yet you dare to say such things directly to me," Hestia said
with a half-smile. "I can’t help but feel that you have a very strange backstory, and I don’t know if you’re
here to help me or sabotage me." NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Both parties were very smart individuals, so the conversation went back and forth without any one of
them losing in terms of tone and attitude.
Although Hestia really admired Nathaniel’s style, Nathaniel had been confessing too much, and Hestia
could not tell whether it was true or false. She also did not know what the other party’s purpose was, so
it was impossible for her to agree to the plan so easily, lest becoming someone else’s pawn.
"Ms. Deschamps, you should really think about it carefully. All I want is to see Duval Group and Rickard
crumble from where they are now." Nathaniel did not force Hestia to make a decision now, and he
chuckled. "I believe that you’re a smart person, and I look forward to meeting you again, Ms.
Deschamps."
After saying so, Nathaniel took the initiative to hang up the phone, leaving Hestia alone to think about
what he just said.
She could be sure that Nathaniel did not tell her the whole truth, but since it was potential exploitation,
it was still unknown exactly who would be the party exploiting the other.
‘Bringing down Rickard... It sounds like a very attractive condition.’
Ever since arriving in Genecity, affairs kept on appearing one after another. Hestia could not help but
rub her forehead tiredly.
‘I can more or less understand Hesper’s life in the past. She was constantly living in a huge trap every
day; she not only needed to be wary of outsiders but also being backstabbed by those living around
her.’
Thinking of the battles of wit that she was going to go through in the future, Hestia felt even more
fatigued, but at the same time, she was looking forward to it, as the extremely peaceful days in
Fredonia had been making her feel a little bored.
After all, Hestia still liked the excitement that she gained from competing with others. No matter
whether she appeared as the winner or loser, at least she would feel that she was still alive every day.
"Rickard Duval, you’d better not let me down."
Hestia stood up and glanced at the courtyard outside. There was only one wall separating her current
place from the Duvals’ residence, the place that had given Hesper countless painful memories.
‘Hesper might’ve been wrong since the very beginning. She was always too kind to Rickard, and she
was worried about too many things. That’s why she couldn’t hate him to the bones.’
