A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 89

“Mom, what makes you think you can talk to her like that just now? Has Hesper done something

outrageous before this? Why do you all look like you were meeting your archenemy when she was

here just now?”

“Huh? Why are you blaming me for what happened?!” Madam Duval felt extremely wronged. She sat

down on the couch and started complaining. “What have I done to deserve this? I got myself such a

former daughter-in-law and you’re telling me that I can’t get physical with her, nor can I raise my voice

against her? If you think she’d make a great wife, then go to her and ask for her hand again. While

you’re at it, you can disown me as your mother!”

Rickard was so exasperated that the veins on his forehead bulged one after another. He was not in the

mood to argue, so he turned around and went upstairs without saying another word.

Sophia and Juniper wanted to catch up to him, but he stopped them harshly, “Stop right there, you two.

I don’t want to talk to anybody!”

Sophia curled her lips, feeling very unreconciled to this outcome.

Seeing that the situation did not look too in her favor, Juniper whispered to Madam Duval, “Rickard

seems to be genuinely infuriated about what just happened, so I guess I’ll take my leave first for

tonight. I’ll come and visit you some other day.”

“That sounds like a plan.” Madam Duval stopped making a fuss and patted the back of her hand. “Don’t

worry. As long as I’m still here, there’s absolutely no way that I’m letting the two of them reconcile.”

The sky was already dark at that moment. Juniper shivered when a gust of cold wind brushed against

her body as she stepped out of the Duvals’ residence.

She quickly got into her car and settled down, but as soon as she turned the headlights on, she

instantly screamed in horror, “Ah!!!”

In front of the headlights, Hesper stared at her contemptuously, and there was a dimly lit ember at the

tips of her fingers. Like an eerie fairy in the night, she looked captivating but murderous at the same

time.

“You… Didn’t you leave?”

Hesper flicked the cigarette and hooked her index finger. “Do you want to get out of your car?”

“No, I won’t get out.”

For some reason, Juniper felt a burst of fear deep down. It felt like if she were to get out of the car,

Hesper would certainly make a move on her.

Hesper saw through her fear and chuckled disdainfully. “Is this it? Ist this all you’re capable of? So

where did you muster the courage to persecute me back then?”

She lost her patience, and a hint of aggressiveness could be seen between her brows. “You can either Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

come down at your own accord or I’ll get someone to help you do so. Now choose.”

Juniper did not want to choose either of the options and wanted to drive away to escape, only to find

that there was already a person standing outside her car next to the driver seat; it was the bodyguard

she had met in the mall.

“I’ll count to three. If you still insist on staying in the car, I’ll get him to guide you out.”

Hesper started counting down, but in only a split second, Juniper had already opened the car door and

got out hastily.

“What on earth do you want to do? I’m warning you, the Duvals’

residence is only yards away behind us. If you dare to lay a finger on me, Madam Duval and Sophia

will definitely not let you get away with

this!”

“Pfft…” Not caring, Hesper dashed up to her, pressed her knee against Juniper’s lower abdomen, and

exerted a huge amount of strength on

1.

“Aaah! Have you lost your mind?” Juniper yelled at her angrily, and the next second, Hesper shoved

something in her palm into her mouth.

Juniper’s eyes widened, and before she could spit it out, Hesper had already made her swallow it.

Juniper then roared in panic, “What did you just make me eat? Are you trying to harm me? Let me tell

you, if something happens to me, you’re going down with me!”

“Don’t worry, killing you isn’t a profitable thing to do. I won’t sacrifice my whole life just to take away

your cheap life!” Hesper clapped her hands with a malicious smirk. “However, that was a pill, and it was

my friend’s latest invention. I heard that it can completely disfigure someone if accidentally ingested. I

don’t know if it’s true, so I’ve chosen to test it on behalf of that friend of mine.”

“You!” As soon as she heard that she would be disfigured, Juniper felt even more anxious.

“I’m going to tell Rickard about this. I’ll make sure that he sees just how vicious your true color is!” She

ran back to the Duvals’ residence while threatening Hesper.

Hesper did not stop her. However, out of nowhere, a cold voice

slashed through the silent night. “Are you 100% sure that he’ll help you?”
