A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 436

Chapter 436 

Now that she thought about it, the only thing that Isobella didn’t like about Hesper was that she didn’t have the looks to match Pennleigh. 

Men are all visual animals. How could she guarantee that even her son would be loyal for the rest of his life just because of love? Beauty was different though; beauty would always be beauty. 

Isobella spoke to the older guests most of the time, so Hesper just stood there in the background. She was used to that. She would say a few words whenever they chatted with her. That was something she knew well. 

“Pennleigh, your dad wants you to go upstairs to speak to him.”Pennleigh was having fun watching Hesper but was soon held back by Isobella. “Tell your dad how you’ve been recently. There’ll be one more guest who’s coming later. Do your best.” 

“Guest?” Pennleigh frowned, but before he could say anything, Hesper felt someone shove her and squeeze between her and Pennleigh. 

“Penn, I haven’t seen you in so long!” 

A girl threw herself onto Pennleigh like a butterfly. Hesper realized what was going on and took a step back to enjoy the chaos. She finally realized that she was supposed to be Pennleigh’s girlfriend. 

“…Penn?” 

Pennleigh pushed the girl away. “Alie, you’re an adult now, so behave yourself.” 

The girl named Alie shook her head and continued to hold onto his hand tightly. “Penn, we haven’t seen each other in such a long time. I missed you so much. I heard that you were coming back. today, so I flew all the way from Halwanest just to see you.” 

Hesper realized what was going on. Alie probably had a crush on Pennleigh, and when she heard that Pennleigh now had a girlfriend, she rushed over to show her who was there first. 

“Enough…” Pennleigh pulled his hand away, pulled Hesper who was enjoying the chaos over, and said, “This is my girlfriend, Hesper. 

Alie finally let go and looked toward Hesper. When she realized that Hesper was actually pretty, 

she scoffed. 

“You think you can have him all to yourself just because you look pretty? I’ve been in his life for years. You’re not going to take over my place in his heart.” 

Other than thinking that it all was ridiculous, she also felt sorry for the young lady. 

Trying to keep someone who had no feelings for her around just because they knew each other for a long time was such a naive thought. 

Pennleigh would rather ask her to pretend to be his girlfriend than ask Alie, who he had known for a long time. That showed how uninterested he was in her. 

“Aelinor.” Pennleigh’s face dropped. “That’s enough. Hesper is my girlfriend. Apologize to her.”
