A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353 

Roberto nodded, and his gaze turned a little cold. “The incident happened so abruptly back then, and I lost my wife and child in an instant, so the bolt from the blue and immense sorrow caused me to lose judgment.” 

“But after investigating over all these years, my gut is telling me that something doesn’t seem right. My wife might not have died because of the accident.” 

Hesper knew that since Roberto was so sure, he must possess some important piece of evidence, so she took the initiative and suggested, “I have some connections here in Genecity. Perhaps you can tell me about this matter in detail, and I can help you with the investigation.” 

When she got home, it was already late. 

All the lights in the house were turned off, so Hesper turned on the lights in confusion. The first. thing that caught her eyes was a home that had been decorated from corner to corner. The color schemes looked rather exaggerated and childish, while the balloons were tied and stuck to the wall at rather awkward heights…. 

“Happy Birthday Mommy!” 

“Happy Birthday Aunty Hesper!” 

Renfrew and Myriade came out with the cake in their hands, and Hesper stared at the small cake 

in front of her in a daze. 

‘It’s my birthday today?” 

Hesper was taken in by the orphanage back then, so it was only natural for no one to know when her real birthdate was. As for the orphanage, they could only pick the day when she was found and taken in and fill in that day as her birthdate, making it her official birthday. 

Speaking of which, Hesper had not celebrated her birthday in a very long time. After all, it was not her exact birthdate, so it had lost the meaning of celebrating. 

“Mommy, make a wish!” 

Renfrew leaned over with the cake in his hands and blinked his big eyes. “Myriade and I have spent a lot of time choosing this cake. I don’t have any money… So Myriade is the one who bought all of this.” 

Hesper looked over at Myriade, who turned her head away in embarrassment. “I have a lot of money anyway, so…” 

“Thank you, Zee.” 

Myriade puffed out her cheeks and looked a little irritated. 

“I’ve already corrected her many times, saying that it’d be better for her to call me Myriade, but she still won’t and keeps on calling me Zee.’ 

But in an instant, her gaze became awkwardly gentle again, and the tips of her ears flushed. 

‘Although she always forgets what to call me… I’ll forgive her. It’s also common for adults to be forgetful at times.’ 

Under the expectant eyes of the two children, Hesper closed her eyes, trying to dissipate the warmth that she was feeling at the bottom of her eyes. 

‘If I have to make a wish… I wish for all the people who love me and whom I love to stay safe and live a good life.”
