A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 616

After thinking about it for a long time, Carter finally realized the root of the issue.

‘She’s been ignoring me all this while, so why would she suddenly care about what to eat? ...And why would she suddenly want to eat chestnuts now?’

"I want Nathaniel to deshell them personally."

Carter’s eyes widened in an instant. The corners of Hesper’s lips twitched as she gave off a half-smile. "I want to see ten pounds tomorrow. Otherwise, I’ll suspect Nathaniel Tucker’s sincerity."

If not for the fact that it was Big T who was going to be tormented, Carter would have given Hesper a thumbs up.

"But what if Big T were to ask someone else to deshell them for you? You wouldn’t know that, would you?" Carter scratched his head, looking a little puzzled, but there was not even a hint of hilarity in Hesper’s eyes.

"Do you think he'll have someone else help him?"

Carter hesitated for a bit. "I don’t think so."

‘Big T has doted on Hesper to a degree so outrageous that he’s pissing everyone else off... In order to make Hesper happy, Big T would definitely agree to this unreasonable request.’

"Then please convey this request to Mr. Tucker."

Through the wrought iron gate, Hesper turned her head. "And do bring another message to him for me. Tell him that since he, Nathaniel Tucker, has the ability to lock me up here, why doesn’t he have the courage to come see me? I’ll wait here and see how much longer he can keep me at this place."

"...Okay."

Carter could not help but be speechless as he thought about how he was going to convey Hesper’s words accurately after returning to the headquarters.

Back at the base, Nathaniel listened quietly to what Carter had to say. He did not get angry. Instead, the corners of his lips curled up at the end of the conversation. "Did she really say that?"
