A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 89

Chapter 89 

“Mom, what makes you think you can talk to her like that just now? Has Hesper done something outrageous before this? Why do you all look like you were meeting your archenemy when she was here just now?” 

“Huh? Why are you blaming me for what happened?!” Madam Duval felt extremely wronged. She sat down on the couch and started complaining. “What have I done to deserve this? I got myself such a former daughter-in-law and you’re telling me that I can’t get physical with her, nor can I raise my voice against her? If you think she’d make a great wife, then go to her and ask for her hand again. While you’re at it, you can disown me as your mother!” 

Rickard was so exasperated that the veins on his forehead bulged one after another. He was not in the mood to argue, so he turned around and went upstairs without saying another word. 

Sophia and Juniper wanted to catch up to him, but he stopped them harshly, “Stop right there, you two. I don’t want to talk to anybody!” 

Sophia curled her lips, feeling very unreconciled to this outcome. 

Seeing that the situation did not look too in her favor, Juniper whispered to Madam Duval, “Rickard seems to be genuinely infuriated about what just happened, so I guess I’ll take my leave first for tonight. I’ll come and visit you some other day.” 

“That sounds like a plan.” Madam Duval stopped making a fuss and patted the back of her hand. “Don’t worry. As long as I’m still here, there’s absolutely no way that I’m letting the two of them reconcile.” 

The sky was already dark at that moment. Juniper shivered when a gust of cold wind brushed against her body as she stepped out of the Duvals’ residence. 

She quickly got into her car and settled down, but as soon as she turned the headlights on, she instantly screamed in horror, “Ah!!!” 

In front of the headlights, Hesper stared at her contemptuously, and there was a dimly lit ember at the tips of her fingers. Like an eerie fairy in the night, she looked captivating but murderous at the same 

time. 

“You… Didn’t you leave?” 

Hesper flicked the cigarette and hooked her index finger. “Do you want to get out of your car?” 

“No, I won’t get out.” 

For some reason, Juniper felt a burst of fear deep down. It felt like if she were to get out of the car, Hesper would certainly make a move on her. 

Hesper saw through her fear and chuckled disdainfully. “Is this it? Ist this all you’re capable of? So where did you muster the courage to persecute me back then?” 

She lost her patience, and a hint of aggressiveness could be seen between her brows. “You can either come down at your own accord or I’ll get someone to help you do so. Now choose.” 

Juniper did not want to choose either of the options and wanted to drive away to escape, only to find that there was already a person standing outside her car next to the driver seat; it was the bodyguard 

she had met in the mall. 

“I’ll count to three. If you still insist on staying in the car, I’ll get him to guide you out.” 

Hesper started counting down, but in only a split second, Juniper had already opened the car door and got out hastily. 

“What on earth do you want to do? I’m warning you, the Duvals’ 

residence is only yards away behind us. If you dare to lay a finger on me, Madam Duval and Sophia will definitely not let you get away with 

this!” 

“Pfft…” Not caring, Hesper dashed up to her, pressed her knee against Juniper’s lower abdomen, and exerted a huge amount of strength on
