A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 183

Chapter 183 

After listening to Hesper’s words, Renfrew fell asleep in satisfaction. Hesper then turned off the lamp and walked out of the room, unable to hold her tears back anymore. 

Rickard did not come the next day. Some urgent matters came up all of a sudden, and he had to deal with them. Even though he thought about coming over again, he could not just leave the company to fend for itself. 

“Did Hesper and Renfrew arrive at the kindergarten safely?” 

Benji gave him an affirmative answer and started to read through today’s itinerary. He then saw Rickard frown and stopped. 

“What’s the matter, sir? Is there anything wrong with today’s schedule?” 

Rickard remained silent for a while and then voiced out, “It’s too compact.” 

“What?” Benji thought he had heard wrongly for a moment. 

‘What the heck?! What did my workaholic boss just say? Did I just hear him complain about his schedule being too compact?” 

“Sir, are you sick?” Benji looked at Rickard worriedly, but Rickard looked healthy and fine. 

Thinking of this, Benji remembered that Rickard had to fetch Hesper too now. 

When Rickard did not say anything, Benji suggested. “If you want to pick Ms. Rivera up from school, we can move this afternoon’s video conference to the evening. What do you think about that?” 

“School?” Rickard frowned. “What school? Is she studying in some school now?” 

This time it was Benji’s turn to stay silent. 

‘I got to know about this matter from the people studying at Genecity University. I assumed that Mr. Duval would know about it too. After all, before Ms. Lane gave birth to Young Master Renfrew, Mr. Duval invested in renovating the entire art academy of Genecity University. On the surface, he claimed that it was the grandeur that the missus of the Duvals deserves, but in fact, all he wanted was to give her a 

surprise. 

‘However, Mr. Duval actually had no idea about Ms. Lane’s decision to return to school?’ 

After listening to the whole story, Rickard was a little surprised too. 

‘Hesper’s current educational background shows that she’s an alumnus of Evergreen College, which isn’t something that can be used as a weak point to sabotage her when she’s announced as the director of a company. I remember that she studied fashion design in college, so what she learned back then shouldn’t be of too much help to her in managing Lane Holdings.” 

“Is it possible that Ms. Lane likes that major?” Benji tentatively brought up. 

Rickard subconsciously wanted to refute him, but he shut up all of a sudden and did not utter a single 

word after that. 

‘I don’t know what Hesper likes, or should I say, in the past, she never gave any hints on what she loved to do. She always acted like a puppet back then. All she did was tackle everything that came into her life submissively, and that was it. 

‘So does Hesper really like fashion design?” 

“I recall that one of our subsidiary companies will be organizing a competition soon, and it’s about 

costume design.”
