A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 550

Hesper’s words pierced through everyone’s heart. She did not even give them a chance to speak up. "Perhaps because I haven’t been coming to the company, some people might have misunderstood my intention. Who, may I ask, told you that I plan to return the shares to Rickard?"

Benji looked at Hesper. Her expression was unchanged despite having just dropped a bombshell.

Ignoring the discussion that exploded from within the crowd again, she continued speaking. "The steak has already been served to me on a plate. What kind of relationship do you think I have with Rickard Duval anyway? Did you really think I’d help him manage his company temporarily?"

What Hesper said seemed to be reasonable. If they were not mistaken, Hesper was the daughter-in-law who the Duvals shunned in the past. And a year ago, she single-handedly started a business war with Rickard. Everyone present remembered the crossfire.

"From tomorrow onwards, I’ll officially be taking office at Duval Group. If you have a problem with this, you can come to me at any time. And if you don’t want your shares, don’t bother with Carter Wilson. Just come to me, and I’ll purchase them from you. As for the executives who don’t want to work anymore..." Hesper paused for a split second then smirked. "I’ll tackle all your resignations before I get off work today."

As soon as Hesper finished speaking, everyone became silent.

"Questions?"

There was a moment of dead silence. Not say anything more, Hesper turned around and entered the office.

Benji followed her into the office with a sense of relief then closed the door. "Ms. Rivera, I’ll never forget your saving grace from just now!"

Renee stood on the other side of Hesper with slight distaste, while Hesper pressed her tongue against her cheek in an irritated manner.

Originally, she did not want to get involved in this mess but let Rickard deal with it when he woke up. However, now that she had placed herself in this position, she had no choice but to get involved in the management of the company.

Benji could see that although Hesper had talked very righteously just now, deep down she actually did not want to manage any of Duval Group’s affairs. Hence, he took the initiative to say, "Don’t you worry, Ms. Rivera. You don’t have to manage anything. All you need to do is come into the office every day and let those people see you here.”

Hesper stared at him as if she was looking at a retard.

"This office..."

Seeing Hesper’s critical look, Benji instantly had a terrible hunch. And sure enough, Hesper commented, "If this were my office, I wouldn't keep Rickard’s decoration."

"Understood. I’ll have a new office ready for you when you come over tomorrow."

Benji took a glance at the design of the office in distress.

‘Although it looks simple, it still cost a lot of money. I bet I’ll have to redo everything when Mr. Duval returns. These two burn cash as if they have no basic understanding of macroeconomics!’

The devil living in Benji’s heart was biting his fingernails, but like the professional he was, he still gave off a polite smile on the surface as if he had no objections. "In the meantime, please make do with what we have. I guarantee that your new office tomorrow will satisfy all your preferences."
