Chapter 147
At this moment, Rickard’s tone seemed to be mixed with emotions that Hesper could not
comprehend, and Hesper did not want to understand it either, so she scolded him in a low voice,” That’s just pure sophistry.”
Rickard lowered his gaze, met Hesper’s keen eyes, remained silent for a moment, and said, “Give me a chance.”
“What?”
Rickard’s question came so suddenly that Hesper thought that she had heard it wrongly and froze for a moment. But after giving it a good thought, she still could not understand what Rickard was trying to say, and then saw the seriousness in Rickard’s profound gaze.
“Hesper, give me another chance to make it up to you.” Rickard did not beat around the bush this time around.
Hesper did not expect him to say such a thing at all, so she was astonished for quite some time.
In fact, the man that was standing in front of her at this moment was already making her feel very strange. In her impression, her ex-husband had never been such a vivid person. He was more like a machine, and all he saw through those calm eyes were profits and opportunities.
Suppressing the messy emotions that were surging in her chest, Hesper lowered her head and
sneered. “There’s no need for that.”
Hesper could not care less about her messy past, so much so that she actually hated her past self
for the weakness that she showed back then.
She did not need Rickard’s compensation, just like how he did not need her a few years ago.
On the other side of the city, Juniper locked herself in the room, and her eyes were fixed on the photo displayed on her cell phone’s screen.
‘It’s Rickard.’
Anyone with a certain status and background would definitely recognize the man at first glance even if he was standing in the crowd.
In the photo, Rickard was hugging Hesper in his arms. No one knew who captured the photo and uploaded it onto their Instagram feed, but it was then sent to Juniper through direct message by a random person.
Even though they were in the middle of a crowd, they still looked like a match made in heaven
when the two of them stood next to each other.
“Hesper. Rivera!” Juniper was about to lose her mind because of jealousy, but she was at her mercy, so she could not do anything to her!
Angrily, she swept everything off the table, panting heavily, and threw her phone aside.
Footsteps could be heard coming from outside the door; it was Ariana who had heard the
commotion.
Looking at her heartbroken daughter, Ariana walked up to her in distress, and then patted her on the back. “Juni, don’t worry, I’ve already found a doctor, and he claims that he can cure the poison in your body.”
“Is that true?!” Hearing what Ariana said, Juniper sat up straight in an instant. “Can he really get rid of the poison?”
