Chapter 364
In the end, she ended up back at the orphanage where she started.
Hesper rarely went back to the orphanage after she got out of there. She would only donate some supplies occasionally. After all, she had not received any special treatment when she was there, not that experienced any unfairness either.
To Hesper, the orphanage was more like a temporary place to stay. She never really considered it as her home, so she did not have a sense of belonging there.
She had gone back several times to explore her origins, but she did not get any good results nor did she find any valuable clues.
Hesper heaved out a sigh and rubbed her tightly knitted brows. She had a feeling that the burden on her shoulders was getting heavier and heavier.
Right now, she just wanted to bring Rickard down and take Renfrew back. That was all she wanted to do for the rest of her life, as she just wanted no one else but Renfrew to stay by her side.
When someone knocked on the door, Hesper closed her eyes.
There were only a few people who would come to see her at this time, and she was tired of dealing with anyone other than Arthur.
However, she had to go and answer the door. “Coming,”
Hesper became surprised when she saw who it was. “Matt?”
Matthew nodded, turned around, and walked into her room. Then, he turned back to signal Hesper
to lock the door.
Hesper quickly locked the door as requested by Matthew.
“What’s the matter? Grandpa didn’t look for you today, so why did you suddenly come back?”
“I kept in mind everything you told me before, so I had my men look into Shawn’s past in detail. They’ve found out that he and Yolanda lived in Genecity for a period of time,” Matthew said. “You would have been living in the orphanage during that time, so according to the timeline, it’s possible that you met Shawn.
“Shawn was seven and you were a little bit over four at that time, so it’s normal that you don’t remember anything.”
Hesper had already suspected that she might have met Shawn during her time at the orphanage. and this news from Matthew had confirmed her speculations.
“Thank you, Matt. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for,” Hesper said as she smoothed out her long hair. She had not gotten a hair cut in a long time, so her hair was pretty long now.
As if he had just remembered something, Matthew smirked and said, “Is Grandpa going to take you to the matchmaking session this year? I heard Aunt Helen mention it when I came.”
“Matchmaking session? Hesper had a bad feeling in her heart. “Grandpa only told me it was a small gathering between families. When did it become a matchmaking session? Besides, I’m
already engaged to Nathaniel.”
