A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 571

"Okay, go then."

This was not Hesper’s first visit to Arthur’s room. Hesper thought of the moments she shared with Arthur back then and felt that fate really had its own way of playing with people.

After all, familial affection was something she thought she didn't deserve, and she had always reminded herself that, sooner or later, she would have to return everything that she owed to someone else.

Thinking of this, Hesper suddenly hesitated to open the door, but she still made up her mind and knocked on the door.

"Is that Hesper? Come in."

Hesper was a little surprised. Hearing Arthur’s voice, it seemed that he had been waiting for her for a long time. Without much hesitation, Hesper quietly opened the door and walked in after obtaining Arthur’s permission.

"You’ve lost a lot of weight." Arthur was laying on his bed. He took a closer look at Hesper and then sighed. "Life must be very difficult out there. You look much thinner than you did a year ago. You’re now almost as thin as you were when you first came here."

Hesper did not expect such an opening remark, and this instantly caused the bottom of her eyes to slightly tear up.

It was as if nothing had happened before this, and she was still Arthur’s most beloved granddaughter.

Arthur seemed to know what Hesper was thinking, so he motioned her to come over and then patted the back of her hand like he always did in the past. "If you’ve suffered any grievances out there, don’t forget about the Lanes and me... Apart from that, how can you be this cruel to your grandpa? It’s been a whole year since you last came here to visit me."

Hesper lowered her head. "I don’t think I should show up here anymore. Now that Rachael has returned, I can’t help but feel guilty about the fact that I stole a lot of her things, including her identity."

"Silly girl." Arthur sighed and did not say much. Hesper had a hunch that he seemed to have something to say, but when he met her probing gaze, he chose to keep it to himself.
