A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 360

Chapter 360 

Coming out of the ward, Hesper and Nathaniel walked side by side in the hospital. 

Nathaniel took the initiative to break the somewhat awkward atmosphere. “I’ve heard about the matter with Daybreak. Are you okay?” 

Hesper shook her head. “How am I not okay? As for the girl… She was quite well-behaved when she was staying with me. But I really didn’t expect things to turn out like this. I even got Mr. Sanchez hurt. 

“Let’s not talk about this anymore. You’ve been coming to Genecity quite often recently. Is there something that demands your attention here?” Hesper turned her head. “I remember that you were always in Emperion before, and occasionally, you’d go abroad to study. Before, you claimed that you hadn’t been in Genecity in a long time.” 

Nathaniel was taken aback for a moment. Then he lowered his beautiful eyes and gazed at 

Hesper helplessly. 

“Do you really not know why I’m always here?” Nathaniel approached her abruptly. 

Hesper’s heart skipped a beat, but after seeing Nathaniel’s half-smile, she let out a sigh of relief and frowned. “Stop making fun of me.” 

Nathaniel distanced himself and rubbed Hesper’s head. “I can see that you’re not in a good mood, so I chose to tease you a little. I’m here because an old friend has returned to Halwanest and he has some things to do in Genecity, but due to personal reasons, he couldn’t come here himself, so he entrusted me to come and help him out.” 

“I see.” Hesper knew that Nathaniel had always attached great importance to the people around him, be it his family or friends, so if he was here to help others out, it sounded rather reasonable.” If there’s anything that I can help with, just ring me up. 

H 

Nathaniel nodded. “Of course, but I can handle it for now. This friend of mine has quite a bad temper, so if I were to tell others about this matter so easily, my actions might provoke unnecessary emotions and chaos.” 

Hesper raised an eyebrow. 

When Nathaniel mentioned that “friend” of his, Hesper seemed to have felt a faint hint of affection 

in his tone. 

“The friend you’re talking about is a lady, isn’t it?” Hesper teased. 

“Huh?” Nathaniel was astonished for a split second, then he chuckled as if he had thought of something funny. “If he were to learn that you called him a lady, he’d be so angry that he would pop off of his wheelchair.” 

Nathaniel’s words sounded a little off, and Hesper realized something. 

‘So this friend that Nathaniel just brought up should be someone younger than him, shouldn’t he? And he’s someone with a disability and can’t walk. It really sounds like he’s grown up being spoiled by the people around him.’ 

“When you return to Emperion, there’s no need for you to hold back if you run into any problems. As long as it’s within my capabilities, I won’t say no to you.” After walking a few steps forward, the wind subsided, and Nathaniel turned his head, his gaze full of tenderness. “Trust me.” 

After taking care of all the work in Genecity, Hesper could finally return to Emperion with peace of 

mind. 

It was almost New Year’s Eve. Hesper seemed to have accomplished a lot during her time away from Emperion and had a strong reason to support her decision to come home for a while. Hence, although Wilfred was still being sarcastic and cynical when she was around, Hesper could not even bother to go back and forth with him. Arthur’s love for her was her strongest prop in the Lanes, so no one could really hurt her. 

“Hesper, have you lost weight again lately?” 

Hesper was helpless. “You already said that I lost weight the last time I came. It’s winter now, so it’s normal to be a little slimmer… Don’t worry, Grandpa, I’ve been eating well in Genecity.” 

Arthur rubbed Hesper’s arm, which looked as slender as a stick, and shook his head in disapproval. “You youngsters don’t care about anything else when you’re busy. From what I can. see, you’re just saying that to prevaricate me. You look even thinner than when you came back for my birthday.” 

Hesper had indeed lost a lot of weight recently, so when she heard his complaint, she could only lower her head with a guilty conscience..
