A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 97

Chapter 97

Rickard finally reacted when he heard Hesper’s name. He stretched out his hand, and Benji gave him the phone.

“Speak. What’s going on?”

Juniper was upset. “Rickard, we’ve known each other for so

many years. Do I have to mention Hesper for you to want to speak to me?”

“I have limited time. I’m going to hang up if you don’t get to the point.”

“Don’t-!” Juniper bit her lips and told him the hospital’s location. “Hesper is more ruthless than you imagined. You’ll find out what she did when you get here.”

“Stop being dramatic.” He impatiently pinched the bridge of his phone and lazily leaned back on his chair. This had something to do with Hesper, so it piqued his curiosity.

“Let’s go take a look.”

Benji saw how his emotion changed and couldn’t help but ask, Mr. Duval, you miss Mrs. Duval, don’t you? You get uneasy every time her name is mentioned.”

“Mind your own business.”

They both went to the hospital and soon found Juniper’s room. What they saw was a face that was red, black, and swollen.

“Are we… in the wrong room?” Benji looked at the room number. It was the right one.

Juniper angrily glared at them. “It’s the right room. It’s me!”

Rickard and Benji froze when they heard her voice.

Luckily, Rickard had a strong heart, so he calmly asked, “What happened? What does Hesper have to do with this?”

“Hesper! She’s the only thing on your mind!” Juniper hated her to the bones as she clenched her jaw. “She’s the reason I look like this! We grew up together, but instead of asking if I’m alright, all you could think about is that b*tch!”

Rickard frowned but didn’t immediately believe her. “That’s what

you say. How do I know that you aren’t lying?”

Juniper almost lost her breath. “I’m not lying! If I lie, I’ll get hit by a bus. How about that?”

Rickard was still hesitant, but if she would curse herself, she was probably desperate.

After a few seconds of silence, he asked, “How do you want me to help?”

“Ask her for an antidote and give it to me! I can’t wait anymore!”

“She might not listen to me.” Rickard was being honest. From what happened last night, it was obvious that Hesper hated him, so why would she listen?

Juniper cried and said, “I don’t care. Figure something out. If I don’t recover, I might as well die! I’m the only descendant of the Wight family. The worst thing that could happen is that my family ends with me.”
