A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 45

Chapter 45 

“Stop right there! You just flushed the Duvals’ reputation down the toilet, yet you’re actually shameless enough to come back here?!” 

A porcelain mug was thrown at Hesper’s feet, and the expression on Madam Duval’s face looked vicious and spiteful. 

Sophia immediately seconded her mother’s disapproval. “That’s right. If I were to have committed such a shameful act, I would’ve jumped straight off a building and ended my disgraceful self long ago. Please enlighten me, just how did you muster the courage to bring yourself to the precinct and launch a police report? You even had the 

confidence to come back and roam freely around your in-law’s house as if nothing’s happened?” 

Hesper stared at the mother and daughter without making a single noise. 

She knew very well deep down that those two men would not have made her a target out of the blue for no reason. 

‘Those bastards were most probably instigated by these two. And judging from the morally righteous tone that they’re adopting while accusing me, they make it seem like they’re 100 percent sure that they own the moral high ground here. But anyone who’s not blind and knows them should know that they’re just two whores who are putting on a show to stay out of this whole farce.” 

“Are you done?” She glared coldly at the two of them, and her piercing gaze actually looked rather deterrent. 

She then scoffed and continued, “You two and I, we know very well what the truth looks like behind all these righteous accusations of yours. Is your conscience really as crystal clear as you’re making it out to be when you’re putting up such an act? Aren’t you two afraid 

that you’ll be sent straight down to hell when your times are up?” 

Madam Duval had always been a religious person, so she had always taken karma and the afterlife very seriously. 

Hearing this, her expression dimmed in an instant. 

Wanting to defend her mother, Sophia stepped forward immediately to give her a slap her in order to teach her a lesson. “You, shut your trap! You can’t even remember who you slept with and you actually have the guts to talk back to mother and me?!” 

Hesper reacted instantaneously, grabbing her tightly by the wrist and stopping her from getting any closer. “You keep on claiming that I slept with some random man, but I know for sure that I didn’t! As for you, what makes you think that you’re in a position to rebuke me on this matter? You’re just a woman who’s been in and out of countless relationships and has been upholding a private life that’s no less than chaotic. I bet you’ve gone through several abortions in quite a few of the local hospitals, haven’t you? So you might think you have the 

moral high ground here, but do you really have the ground to criticize me?” 

“Nonsense! What are you talking about?!” Sophia was shocked. 

‘Those are all my private affairs and I’ve made sure that all information related to these matters is very well hidden, so how did this b*tch know about them?’ 

However, there was no way that she would admit her doings. She gnashed her teeth and raised her voice. “Do you still plan to pretend that nothing’s happened? We already know about the results of your physical examination. The doctor already mentioned that they’ve found a foreign fluid sample of unknown origin in your body! Yeah, you hear me right, a fluid sample of unknown origin!” 

Sophia deliberately placed a lot of emphasis on her tone while 

uttering the last sentence, as if she was trying to imply something. 

Hesper still could not figure out what had gone wrong with the test results, but looking at Sophia’s arrogant expression, she could not help but feel that something seemed fishy. 

“How do you know my test result?” 

‘It’s obvious that Rickard hasn’t come back home, and even if he had, he would never disclose the news to his family members. No one knows better than I do just how big that man’s ego is.’ 

“I… Isn’t it obvious that Dick is the one who told us about it?” A hint of trepidation flashed across Sophia’s eyes. 

However, Hesper was not someone who would be easily fooled. “Is that so? If that’s the case, I’ll give him a call and ask him about this now.” 

“Don’t you dare call him!” Sophia panicked and forcibly snatched her cell phone from her palm. 

Seeing that the mother and daughter still could not get the upper hand after all the attempts, Juniper taunted Hesper. “Why are you doing this? Everyone knows what you’ve done now, so even if you try. to talk back to Madam Duval and Sophia, you’re not fooling anyone. I think you should stop putting up a fight and admit your mistake. Maybe Madam Duval and Sophia will let this matter slide for the sake of your baby.”
