A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 498

After boarding the plane, Matthew vaguely felt that there was something off when he saw River A. earlier. He had never seen that face before, but it gave off a familiar vibe... And then there was Pennleigh. Why did River A. stop him from calling her?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt something felt off. Before takeoff, Matthew messaged Renee and asked her to look into the background of River A.

Thinking of those eyes that stared at him fixedly, Matthew frowned.

'Is that you, Hesper?'

When Hesper called Julian to say she was returning home, Julian lowered his head and packed up his things, a smile appearing on his lips. When the mysterious doctor walked over and saw Julian grinning at his medicine bag, he frowned. He walked over to Julian and patted his back, his expression serious as he asked, "What have you done?"

Julian's back shook as he was startled by the sudden tapping. He looked at the mysterious doctor and licked his parched lips.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

The mysterious doctor's face got colder. "Julian, you know I don't like people who think they're smart. Since you want to play dumb, I might as well be frank with you. Are you the one who did it?"

Julian froze. "How did you know?"

After Julian admitted it, the mysterious doctor sighed. "Are you stupid? I know you're the one who did that to Hesper's roses. Rickard sat on the balcony for a whole day. Since Hesper didn't take out that bouquet of roses, something must have gone wrong."

"Yes… But how did you know it was me?"

The mysterious doctor tapped at him again. "Simple. I was the one who put that box of medicine into the bag. There's no way I'd forget about it and tell you to go back to get it. You did this so that Rickard wouldn't be able to go over to her house to check on her using the excuse of changing the flowers."

Hesper placed the carnations into the vase. The sky was already getting dark, but she still put the flower in the yard.

When she went to the flower shop earlier that day, Hesper had asked about them and was told that carnations were easier to take care of than roses. Some flower shops would use carnations as a substitute for roses. These flowers were disposable items, so it was rare that people would suspect anything.

Thinking about this, a smile appeared on Hesper's face, and she turned back into the house after placing the flowers down.

"If Hesper asks anything about the flowers later, just act dumb…" Just when the mysterious doctor was instructing Julian on what to do, Julian, who was walking in front of him, stopped in his tracks.

"What's the matter?"

The mysterious doctor looked at Julian, whose eyes had widened in shock. Following his gaze, he saw a vase of fresh flowers bloomed quietly in the sunset. Those flowers did not look wilted at all.
