A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 473

Professor Miles nodded. He knew about this and had reminded Julian before.

"Then how do we know that you’re only checking to see if there are surveillance devices in our phones and not stealing our personal information?" Julian sneered. "I’m afraid we might’ve gone from one kidnapper to another."

The person in charge of welcoming them smiled when he heard the words, and then explained bluntly, "In a sense, we saved you only because you happened to have been captured along with your master, not because we needed you. If you don’t believe in us, you can get out of the car now. However, any electronic equipment that hasn’t been inspected won’t be allowed to come with us."

"You—!"

"Please do understand the position that we’re in."

Julian looked at Rickard.

‘Such a blunt warning is obviously something that Rickard would say. He would only pretend to be calm and magnanimous in front of others, but in fact, he looks down on me deep down. This was already the case when I was living in the Duvals. He was always on the top, while Hesper and I were just troublesome and inferior people who were brought back by Mr. Duval Sr. because of his sympathy. Deep down, Rickard has never thought highly of us.’

"Okay, Julian." Professor Miles could also see that Julian and Rickard had some old grudges, but he never liked to get involved in any form of love and hatred. In his world, only freedom and money could get his attention. "Hand your phone over to them. Mr. Duval has already rescued us, and we’re in his hands now. Why would he need to turn to such petty tricks?"

Julian pursed his lips in silence and only handed his phone over after a while.
