A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19

Rickard did not answer the question.

Sophia and Juniper accused him of not believing them, but everyone told a different version of the story.

Who should he believe then?

“Rickard! It was you who asked me, but you now won’t believe me?”

Hesper bit her lower lip tightly. She realized that since the baby was not wrapped in the bundle, Sophia and Hesper’s goal was for her to die!

She was injured so severely that she was on the brink of death, yet her husband was still hesitant about who he should believe…

She was extremely disappointed and utterly furious. Had it not been for Rickard, would she need to go through this?

Rickard furrowed his eyebrows when he noticed her stare. “Why are you looking at me like that? I didn’t say that I don’t believe you.”

“If that’s the case, you should hold them responsible for this matter! Why aren’t you doing that yet?”

“Each of you sticks to your own side of the story. How am I supposed to hold anyone responsible before the matter has been investigated thoroughly?”

“Rickard…” Hesper shook her head in disappointment. She felt grief washing over her and uttered every word as if she was hurt. “I’m the one injured and I was the one plotted against! What else do you want to investigate? Do you think that my life is worthless, that my role here is to be trampled upon and humiliated by all of you?”

“You make it sound so unpleasant.”

Rickard furrowed his eyebrows tightly. He came rushing over at once precisely because he knew that she was injured. Otherwise, why would he show up?

But not only was she unappreciative, she was looking at him like he was the enemy. It made him furious.

“I told you that I will uphold justice for you when the matter has been investigated thoroughly!”
