A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 312

Chapter 312 

‘Needless to think, that woman must be up to something again.” 

Hesper was a little speechless. It was her first time paying her neighbor a visit, so she really didn’t want to showcase her unfriendly and prickly side, but Eloise had been challenging her limits over. and over again. 

“Why isn’t there a smell yet?” 

“…There’s no smell?” Yohanna realized it slightly later than Hesper did. “Yeah… I don’t seem to smell any Halwanese medicine boiling.” 

The two went upstairs, and Yohanna led Hesper into the kitchen, only to see Eloise’s hectic silhouette. However, instead of boiling the medicinal herbs, she was busy chopping them up and then flushing them down the sink. 

Without any doubts, Hesper pushed the door open. 

Eloise turned her head immediately and stared at the two of them in a panic, still hiding a large handful of herbs in her hands. 

Hesper walked up to her, grabbed her arm, and lifted it. Feeling excruciating pain, Eloise dropped all the medicinal herbs in her hand and they fell to the floor. 

“What do you think you’re doing?” Yohanna rarely sounded this infuriated. 

When she approached her, it was Eloise’s first time seeing her employer this furious, so she pulled her hand back timidly and whispered, “I’m only worried that there’s some issue with her medicinal herbs! Is she even a doctor? Who gave her the qualifications to go around diagnosing people? Gabriel was already born with stomach issues…’ 

“You…” Yohanna clearly knew that Eloise was trying to change the notion. Her trust and tolerance toward her throughout all these years had almost become a joke. 

She then turned her head and looked at Hesper apologetically. “Hesper, I’m really sorry. Please take a look at these herbs… Can they still be used?” 

Hesper shook her head but comforted her at the same time. “I still have some herbs at home. Just give me some time. I’ll go back and grab some more, so don’t worry.” 

While they were busy talking, Yohanna’s husband, Jean Yates, came back home. 

Hesper began to go back to get more medicinal herbs. As she walked across the room, the smell coming off of the man felt somewhat familiar to her, but she could not figure out where she had 

smelled it, so she brushed it off her mind. 

After all, the other party was Yohanna’s husband, so it was not good for her to probe too much. 

“Do we have a guest over?” Jean walked past Hesper, went up to his wife, and held her hand. After a while, he turned his head, took a glance at the woman who he had just strode past, and then finally noticed Yohanna’s cold fingers. 

He sighed with a frown. “What happened? Your hands are so cold…” 

After getting the medicine ready, Hesper did not want anyone else to take over the boiling of the herbs this time around, so she sat in the kitchen throughout the whole process, while Renfrew sat öbediently beside her.
