"I told you before, didn't I? You dote on Myriade too much. Sooner or later, she'll become a sharp blade that hangs over your head," Riley said nonchalantly. "Myriade is getting smarter and smarter. Maybe she has already noticed what you did in the past."
Nathaniel glanced at him and said, "If you don't know what to speak, then you probably should keep your mouth shut."
"I think she knows part of the truth. Otherwise, there's no way she'd betray you, given her personality," Riley continued, raising his eyebrows. "If you don't want to listen, then I'll just keep my mouth shut. But if you don't do something about her, she'll soon become the biggest trouble in Daybreak."
"The woman beside Hesper took a picture of us," 013 chimed in.
'Jessie?' Nathaniel fell silent, while Riley shrugged indifferently.
"Hesper doesn't even remember us now. There's nothing she could do even if she has our photos."
"Jessie has been constantly accompanying Hesper, which makes her a possible threat. As far as I recall, she had some involvement with a playboy who's a friend of Rickard's. In any case, we should create more difficulties for her and prevent her from always being around Hesper."
"Alright, then."

After saying "there should be a mole on his face," Hestia fell into a brief moment of confusion. Jessie held onto Hestia, as she was at a loss about what to do.
Even though Nathaniel was here, Jessie could not help but feel that she could not trust this person.
"Hessy? Hessy, what's going on? Please don't scare me."
"In her memory? So does this mean that only when Hesper remembers the past can she figure out the answer to what she's currently pursuing? But what is "Hestia" investigating?"
With a frown on his face, Benji fell into contemplation. After a while, he clutched the note and caught up to Rickard ahead.
In any case, Hesper was behaving strangely now. If something really happened to her, Rickard might collapse. They could always deal with matters such as her memories and others later.
With that thought in mind, Benji couldn't help but sigh. It seemed to him that love really could change a lot of things.
By the time Hestia woke up, she found herself lying in a hospital bed. Jessie was standing at the door of the ward, talking to someone outside.
Feeling a bit helpless, it was the first time Hestia had seen a caregiver leave the patient alone in the ward.
