A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 358

Chapter 358 

After Zoya left, life gradually got back on track. 

Rickard had taken Renfrew back to the Duvals. Hesper never once mentioned that she wanted to see Renfrew ever since the incident, nor did she contact Rickard again. Renfrew was very sensible. and would video call Hesper every day. 

Looking at Renfrew, Hesper could feel that he had become more taciturn as the days went by. 

Myriade’s departure was a major blow to him. Rickard found him a new coach after that, and Renfrew did not reject him. Even with the new teacher, he still showed incredible talent. 

*Just understand the situation that you’re in and know when to stop.” 

Knowing what happened during this period of time, Matthew only sighed on the other end of the call. “Rickard is a heartless person. Must you measure just how huge of a role emotions play in his world through the disappointments that you experience from him over and over again?” 

It was rare for Hesper to feel this frustrated, but she had to admit that what Matthew said was 

correct. 

‘Deep down in Rickard’s heart, profit will always come first. It’s his natural instinct, and it’ll never be changed by anyone’s will. Even love won’t cut it in this case.’ 

“Okay, I understand.” Hesper did not want to discuss this matter again and changed the subject.” I’m going back to Emperion in the near future. There are some things back home that I haven’t gotten my head around. I’ll leave my work in Genecity to Renee while I’m gone.” 

“You’re coming back?” 

Matthew felt that Hesper’s sudden return to Emperion was a little strange. “What are the things that you want to get your head around?” 

‘There are plenty… 

There were too many things that Hesper still did not understand, but the most recent one was Shawn. It was about his strange attitude toward her. 

After what happened with Zoya, Hesper had learned not to judge a book by its cover. People who looked harmless on the surface might be the ones who were capable of stabbing her from behind. 

Hesper had to figure out what the deal was with Shawn. 

After she briefed Matthew about her concerns, he pondered for a moment. “Uncle Theo doesn’t go out very often now. He usually spends time with Grandpa. If you were to deliberately approach him all of a sudden, you might invoke suspicions. So allow me to recommend someone to you- Uncle Simon.” 

Hesper was puzzled. “Uncle Simon? But I’m not very close with him, and… Didn’t he say that he was about to go abroad soon during Grandpa’s birthday party? I thought he left after the party.” 

“That was his original plan, but Grandpa forbade him from leaving. He could only choose one or the other. Either to get married instantly and then leave Emperion, or to stay back at home and 

stay single.” Matthew held himself back from laughing. “It’s impossible for Uncle Simon to want to get married, so he could only compromise and stay back here for a while.” 

“I see…”
