A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126 

“Isaac, would you like to explain what’s going on?” Hesper gritted her teeth. 

‘Aren’t these two living right under my nose? What kind of misunderstanding could there be?” 

“Ms. Lane, please listen to me…” 

Isaac restated the whole story in embarrassment. 

Hesper was even more moved after hearing this. She pinched Renfrew’s nose and comforted him, “You silly boy, Mommy isn’t poor. Otherwise, how could I afford such a big house?” 

“But…” 

The little guy thought for a while. 

‘Perhaps it’s because Mommy has spent all her money on the house. I’ve heard people say that it’s very difficult to purchase a house. Mommy is alone, so it must be even more difficult.” 

“Mommy, you don’t have to reject the money. What’s mine is yours!” Renfrew said while piling up the money in front of her. When he saw the check buried in the banknotes, his eyes lit up. “And I 

have another surprise for you too. Taadaa…!” 

Unfolding it, Hesper saw that it was a check and it came from the Duval Group. 

She frowned. “Did you ask your dad for this?” 

“No, it wasn’t me but great-grandpa,” the boy responded. 

Hesper simply did not know what to say. 

‘Mr. Duval Sr. hasn’t changed at all. He thinks I’m working very hard and is paying me such a large sum of money just because he wants to.’ 

“Ren.” Hesper returned the check to him and said earnestly, “I’ll make this clear to you now once and for all. Mommy is not short of money, so Mommy does not want to accept this check.” 

“Why? Even if you’re not short of money, you can still keep it, right?” 

“You might not understand this,” Hesper explained, “But your great-grandpa gave Mommy this. money because he feels bad for me. So since Mommy is doing well, I can’t take the money, can I? Otherwise, it’ll look as if Mommy is taking advantage of Great-grandpa’s kindness.” 

“Oh, I see.” The little guy nodded and put the check away obediently. “Then I’ll put it away. Anyway, 

if you need help, Great-grandpa and Daddy definitely won’t refuse to help you.” 

The kid might not mean it, but the mother understood the innocent expectation instantly. 

Hesper paused for a split second but said nothing. 

That night, after a whole day’s worth of work, Hesper came to the yard alone. 

She glanced at the moonlight, feeling uncomfortable, as something that Renfrew had said earlier 

was stuck in her chest. 

‘Firstly, I don’t want Grandpa to spend so much on me, and secondly, I don’t want to take Rickard’s money. Especially when this matter is a blunder caused by Ren. Grandpa wouldn’t know about my financial condition, but Rickard has to. Yet he still give the money to Ren… 

Coupled with what Renfrew said earlier, Hesper felt indescribably awkward, 

Thinking of this, Hesper decided to send him a text message.
