A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 153

Chapter 153 

He was an outsider observing Rickard and Hesper’s relationship. The Hesper who was meek and pitiful would probably never have thought that this day would come. 

Suddenly, someone came into the office. 

“No, I won’t agree to it!” 

Julie walked in and grabbed Rickard’s arms. 

“Mom, why are you here?” 

When he remembered what Julie did to Hesper, his expression turned cold. They all kept saying that it was ‘for his own good’ when they got involved in his marriage and bullied his wife. The truth is, they never respected him. 

Julie glared at him but was still fearful of Rickard’s cold expression, so she let him go and pretended to 

cry. 

“You remember that I’m your mom? Hesper’s life is important but my son’s isn’t?” Julie wiped away her nonexistent tears and continued. “How could you go to such a dangerous place because of a woman? Have you thought about your grandpa?” 

Rickard’s expression softened when his grandpa was mentioned but he didn’t cancel his plan to go to Salt City. 

“Grandpa loves Hesper, so if I can’t bring her back safely, Grandpa wouldn’t be happy.” 

Rickard looked at his mother who he never understood and continued. “I remember how you treated Hesper. I will never believe you.” 

Hesper was halfway to the outer district with some supplies when it started raining cats and dogs. 

“The rain is getting heavier. I’m afraid we might not get there.” 

Isaac worriedly looked out the window. When Hesper departed, she already knew that there could be a chance for an accident to happen but still went anyway! 

“We’ve come all this way, so there’s no point saying that.” Isaac noticed Hesper staring at one spot and asked, “Is something wrong?” 

Hesepr looked back and calmly nodded. 

“That car behind us seems to be following us.” 

Hesper noticed that car once they left Salt City. There shouldn’t be cars on the road given the weather and condition. It would be too big of a coincidence if a car just happened to be going in the same direction as they were. 

Hesper leaned against her door. Her wine-red cropped top made her pale skin stand out more like she was a butterfly in the night. 

“I can’t think of anyone who would follow me around when there’s the threat of an aftershock lingering.” The car was following from a distance. Hesper knocked her knuckles silently while trying to figure out who would want to attack her at this time. 

Wilfred who made her come to Salt City? 

He had to watch out for Matthew and Grandpa and would be the biggest suspect, so he wouldn’t be so 

dumb to attack now.
