A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 545

"Yo, girl, you’ve come." Seeing that it was Hesper, Professor Miles did not find it particularly novel, so he was direct. "Rickard just fell asleep. He probably won’t be waking up for quite some time."

Hesper remained silent for a moment but then followed Professor Miles through the door.

Professor Miles had obviously gotten very familiar with this place. He poured Hesper a glass of water and sighed. "You should be able to see Rickard’s condition. I've tried every possible means to delay the onset of the poison, but the outcomes have been minimal."

Hesper frowned. "Is there still no news from Julian?"

"Like a cowardly tortoise, he’s shrunk into his shell, waiting for Rickard’s death to appear on the news headlines." Professor Miles sighed again. "If Rickard weren't poisoned by Julian, I would’ve left this place instead of studying the formula of the poison and antidote day in and day out. I feel like vomiting every time I see the names of herbs and drugs."

"If you don't find a way to cure him, how much longer will Rickard have?"

"One month at most."

Although she had imagined the worst-case scenario multiple times, Hesper’s heart still skipped a beat when she heard how pitifully short the time Rickard had left was. "Are your research and studies still going nowhere?"

Professor Miles nodded, shattering Hesper’s wishful thinking. "If I’d discovered something through my studies, I wouldn’t have let him continue to lay on the bed."

Hesper pursed her lips. "I’ll find a way to locate Julian."

After learning about Rickard’s current condition from Professor Miles, Hesper left and went back home, thinking about contacting Myriade.

She had to admit, although Myriade had hurt her and Renfrew very deeply, the girl probably provided them with more information because of guilt.

However, if this was the case, she would definitely have to go through Renfrew in order to get to Myriade.
