A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 44

Chapter 44 

“Let’s go.” Rickard turned around indifferently and left with his bodyguards. 

Matthew’s assistant signaled their men to back down too. 

The oppressive feeling in the air was instantly relieved. 

“Are you okay?” Matthew gazed at Hesper, he had never been a nosy person, but he had met her on three occasions in just two days, and it had managed to get more embarrassing with each encounter. 

Such fate had piqued his curiosity. 

“What’s the relationship between you and that man from just now?” 

“Uh… It’s a long story.” Hesper gave off a wry smile and thanked him again earnestly. “I’m really sorry to have caused you more trouble.” 

Seeing that she did not want to share anything, Matthew did not go further with his questions, and his indifferent expression remained unchanged. “It’s no big deal, so don’t worry about it.” 

At this time, Hesper suddenly recalled the matter that took place at the precinct last night and hesitated before she said, “Sir, I know this request of mine may sound a little abrupt, but can I trouble you to make a journey to the precinct and testify for me if you’re free?” 

She told him the ins-and-out of the whole story, but before Matthew could respond to her request, his assistant who was standing beside him frowned. “Just who do you think you are? Our young master is a busy man. What makes you think he’d have the time to help you with such trivial matters?” 

Hesper’s face turned pale. She understood that her request was quite an imposition, but if she did not have any witnesses attesting to her story, the police would never investigate further. 

‘If this is the case, the real culprit behind all these shenanigans will continue to be at large.’ 

“Shut up.” Matthew reprimanded his assistant in a deep voice, then turned and looked at Hesper. “Understood. I’ll make time to pay the precinct a visit later.” 

“Really?” Hesper burst into tears of gratitude. “Thank you so much. I don’t even know what to say.” 

She did not expect that this man, who seemed to have an 

extraordinary background, would be willing to trouble himself for her. 

Hesper quickly took out her cell phone. “This is my number. I really don’t know what can I do to repay you for all your help, so if you ever need anything in the future, I’ll surely do whatever is in my power to help you out!” 

“Sir…” The assistant wanted to stop Matthew from doing so. 

‘How can the young master give his phone number to someone else so casually?’ 

But Matthew exchanged contact information with Hesper as if he did not hear him at all. 

After she left, the assistant could not bear it anymore. “Sir, why would you help her? You even exchanged phone numbers with her?” 

‘Everyone knows that the young master is an indifferent and ruthless man. He’s never been a soft-hearted person, let alone showcased so much love all of a sudden.’ 

‘But when it comes to that woman, exceptions just keep on appearing over and over again.” 

Matthew looked at the figure that was leaving the hospital with a dimmed and complicated gaze.
