Even though none of that affected Duval Group and Lane Holdings, Nathaniel's excessive money grabbing would eventually get to them…
He was coming after the Lanes from the beginning.
Even though Rickard didn't know if Nathaniel really loved Hesper, what he could foresee was how chaotic it would be when he met her again.
Hestia met Rickard's eyes from afar, then politely raised her wine glass.
Rickard suddenly realized that Hesper was drinking.
***
When Matthew got there, he saw Hesper before he saw Rickard.
Maybe the red was very eye-catching, but Matthew's eyes immediately went to her. He took two steps closer to her.
"Hesper…"
Hestia seemed to have heard. She turned around and looked over. Her eyes glanced over at Matthew but didn't stop there.
Matthew's heart sank but still walked over and grabbed her wrist. "Hesper, don't you remember me?"
Hestia looked at this unfamiliar man and whistled in her head. Her pre-memory loss self seemed to have a lot of luck with love. There was Rickard, now this hot thing.
