A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 169

Chapter 169 

‘However, it’s useless to hold onto the past.” 

Hesper’s wound would not scab and recover. The doctor was so infuriated with her that he ignored her identity and almost pointed to her nose and started reprimanding her. 

In order to help maintain the doctor’s blood pressure, Hesper decided to take good care of her injuries. and promised that she would not move around again. 

During this period, Isaac saw Rickard standing at the door of Hesper’s ward several times. He did not know what he was thinking about, but he did not open the door and enter. 

Naturally, Isaac would not hide such matters from Hesper. After all, he had already told her what Rickard asked him not to say the other day, let alone such a trivial matter. 

“…Just let him be.” 

Hesper had been wondering. 

‘He was so proactive before the accident took place, so why didn’ he show up after he woke up from his coma? It turns out that he snuck over to my ward from time to time just to have a look, but he doesn’t have the guts to show up.’ 

Of course, Rickard was not afraid of appearing in front of her but hesitant. 

Recently, he had been thinking of Hesper when she was chasing after him back then. In fact, Hesper was not as annoying as he thought at that time. 

And since Ernest told him to look after her, it was only natural for him to treat Hesper a little differently 

now. 

‘Hesper has always been a very introverted and quiet person. She’s like a sharp stone whose edges and corners have been sanded and smoothed, and one can only know how stubborn she can be by spending time and getting along with her. It’s because of various reasons that she has to conceal her true self and try to portray herself as a peaceful and quiet lady. 

‘If she hadn’t gotten into my bed, slept with me, and coerced me into marrying her and making her Mrs. Duval back then, I would probably have taken her in as my younger sister and taken care of her up till today. 

‘Thinking about it now, apart from this wrongdoing, everything else that I thought she did was deliberately staged by others to frame her. My prejudice is the sole reason why she is who she is today.’ 

“Rickard Duval.” Hesper opened the door of the ward and looked at the man in front of her expressionlessly. “How much longer do you plan to stand there? You might not feel ashamed, but I do.” 

That was when Rickard returned to his senses and realized that he had gone to Hesper’s ward again. 

I didn’t…” Before Rickard could finish speaking, Hesper had already dragged him into the ward. 

The interior design of the wards was the same; there was a small couch to sit on. 

Hesper still had a few stacks of documents that she needed to go through, so she did not talk to Rickard but went back to bed and continued working. 

In order to ensure that the wound would not open again, Hesper moved very slowly. Rickard wanted to stride forward to help her out, but she avoided him. 

Hesper did not say anything, and Rickard did not speak either. The two each occupied one corner in the 

ward. Hesper was dealing with work while Rickard was watching her. 

Mommy… Daddy?”
