A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 361

Chapter 361 

After Zoya left, she sent Renfrew back to the Duval Manor. She usually would only eat a little when she was hungry, and if she wasn’t hungry, she would keep herself busy and not eat properly. 

“Let’s make something delicious for dinner. Do you have anything in mind, Hesper? I remember you enjoyed the food I made last time. Do you want to have that tonight?” Arthur asked as he looked at Hesper affectionately. When she nodded, he went into the kitchen and asked the chef to prepare the food. 

Hesper was sitting on the couch, playing on her phone while waiting for Arthur. Suddenly, a pair of hands holding a glass of milk appeared in front of her. 

Hesper raised her head and became surprised. “Uncle Simon?” 

Simon nodded, and Hesper took the glass of milk he handed her. Simon then sat across from her. He had a pair of slightly upturned eyes that were different from the other sons of Arthur, giving him a somewhat feminine look. 

“Didn’t Matthew tell you anything? I’m staying at home now,” Simon said. 

Hesper nodded, and then she shook her head. “Matt just told me that you’ll be staying in Emperion. He didn’t mention that you’d be staying here… I just didn’t expect that you would come to me, so I was a little surprised.” 

“Hmm?” Simon narrowed his eyes slightly and chuckled. “Well, it seems like you’ve heard of that matter as well. Then I won’t beat around the bush anymore. I’m sure you didn’t come back to celebrate the New Year, right? Just let me know if you have some doubts. I may be able to help 

you.” 

Initially, Hesper had been thinking of how she should persuade Simon to help her. She did not expect Simon to bring it up so directly. 

“Thank you, Uncle Simon.” 

When Arthur came back, he saw Hesper talking to Simon and was a little bit taken aback. “It’s surprising to see you two talking to each other. I get angry after talking to him for only two minutes, so you don’t have to care about him, Hesper.” 

Simon let out a long sigh. “I know you don’t like me, so I’ll go upstairs.” 

Hesper stifled a laugh. Although Simon and Arthur did not get along, only Simon could argue with him among the younger generation of the Lanes. 

After Simon went upstairs, Arthur turned to Hesper and said sternly, “Although we were joking just now, you should stay away from Simon.” 

“Huh? But why?” 

Arthur fell silent as if he had recalled some unpleasant memories. He let out a sigh afterwards and patted Hesper’s head. “Simon… He didn’t like you very much in the past.” 

‘He didn’t like me?’ Hesper thought inwardly, but she shook her head after a short while.
