Chapter 664
Rachael wouldn't be managing the company's affairs at this hour. The receptionist just wanted to hide,
but hearing the busy tone on the phone, all she could do was smile awkwardly at Hestia.
"I'm sorry, she's not picking up."
Hestia didn't say anything but someone walked out from inside the office.
"Maisie, what's going on?"
Celine heard people talking outside and walked out to check, but when she looked up, she saw two Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
pairs of familiar eyes and wanted to immediately turn and run.
"Celine Campbell!"
Jessie called out to her when she saw she was trying to run. "Why are you running? Didn't you happily
take Hesper's things from her? Now you see that she's back, and you're running away scared?"
Celine stood on the spot and didn't dare look at Jessie. She turned to Hesper but realized there was no
disappointment or sadness in her eyes. She looked like a stranger to her.
Hestia noticed Celine and nodded. "I'm sorry, I've lost part of my memory half a year ago, so I don't
remember who you are… However, don't be too happy because I know what you've done."
Hearing how calm Hesper's tone was, Celine's felt like a blunt knife stabbed into her heart but she
knew she deserved what was coming for her.
She betrayed Hesper's trust, and she… If Hesper didn't come back safely, she would have taken what
Hesper left behind without permission.
Celine lost a lot of sleep because she blamed herself.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." She lowered her head and they both stood in front of the reception,
unmoving.
The receptionist watched what was happening and didn't care if Rachael picked up her call. It was
obvious that Hestia was there for trouble, but she wasn't that loyal to the company and definitely wasn't
paid to be a guard, so she just let the trio in.
Jessie wasn't as calm as Hestia. She could see how Hesper treated Celine. When the studio just
started, she spent quite a lot of time with Celine. That was the first time she knew how it feels to be
stabbed in the back by a friend, someone she trusted.
"Alright, there's no need for this pointless conversation. I just want to know the reason and more
information that's useful to us."
Hestia wasn't emphatic, maybe because she lost her memories. When she heard that, Celine's eyes
turned dark and started speaking after a long pause.
"After you left, Jessie and I tried to keep the studio in shape while we waited for your return. However,
my mother fell sick during that time and I needed a lot of money for her medical fees. I didn't have a
choice."
Celine pursed her lips. "My mom is the most important person to me in this world. I have to do this so I
can afford her medication."
"Is that so?" Hestia calmly cut her off. "If you need the money to get medication, why would a large sum
of money be transferred from your account to someone else's? Was that person selling the
medication?"
Celine paused as panic flashed across her eyes.
Seeing her reaction, Jessie realized whatever Celine said was just an act.
Never would she have expected Celine to still lie. Jessie scoffed. "I think Hesper made a huge mistake
in the past. If she knew this is who you are, she would be better off being friends with Michelle
Sullivan."
