A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love
Chapter 247

Chapter 247

Looking at Sophia, who was standing at the door, Hesper's expression turned cold instantly.

Seeing his aunt, Renfrew held onto Hesper's hand and hid behind her, only showing half of his face from beside his mommy's thigh as if he did not want to leave her.

"... What's with that glare of yours? Do you really think I wanted to come?"

'This b*tch sent me to prison a few days ago, and this time around, Dick didn't even bail me out as he would back then. In the end, it was Mother who spent a fortune to clear my name from the system. If my criminal record were to be kept in the system, any marriage prospects would be thrown out of the window for good! How I wish I could avoid meeting this woman for the rest of my life. She's like a lunatic now. She just doesn't care about sh*t. I'll be ruined as long as she seizes a chance to crucify me.'

Renfrew and Sophia were never close, and Hesper could tell that Sophia really did not want to come to pick him up, so she frowned. "Where's Rickard? Are you telling me that he doesn't even have the time to come and pick up his son?"

Sophia curled her lips. "Dick has gone to Juni's. I might want to come and meet you, but that doesn't mean that Dick also wants to, right? Just how ridiculous can you be?"

"You're lying. Daddy would never go to another woman's house behind Mommy's back!" Before Hesper could say anything, Renfrew jumped out from behind her and stared at Sophia like a tiny beast. "You liar, don't you dare stir up anything between Mommy and Daddy!"

Sophia had wanted to sow discord, as she could not bear to see how smooth Hesper's life had become. However, looking at Hesper's unconcerned expression, she felt that she had not had enough, so she continued. "Your daddy has definitely gone to replace Juni. And when he marries Juni, I'll make sure you get kicked out of the Duvals' residence. Just wait and see

"Have you had enough?!" Hesper's voice turned cold. Even if Rickard goes to a hundred women's places, it's got nothing to do with me. At the end of the day, I won't let you take Renfrew away." "What right do you have to stop me? Renfrew shares the same last name as me, so that makes him one of the members of the Duvals..."

Before Sophia could even finish speaking, she suddenly felt a chill jolt down her spine. She raised her head, looked up at Hesper, and saw that she was staring at something over her shoulder as if there was someone behind her....

"Sophia Duval, what horse crap are you talking about?

It was Rickard's voice!

Sophia had not expected Rickard to appear all of a sudden and demolish what she just said. She shrugged like a pheasant, and her neck contracted. "No, it's nothing, Dick. I wasn't talking nonsense. Renfrew is indeed a member of the Duvals, isn't he?"

Rickard only arrived a few minutes late, but he did not expect Sophia to be there.

Looking at Hesper's subtly dissatisfied expression, he guessed that Sophia had had nothing good to say and even got him involved.

"Renfrew is mine and Hesper's son, not just any random member of the Duvals." After saying so, Rickard remained silent for a moment and then glanced at Hesper. "I'm sorry to have brought you trouble again."

Seeing that Hesper did not plan to say anything in response, Sophia hid behind Rickard and breathed a sigh of relief.

However, that was when she heard Renfrew's voice calmly say, "Aunt Sophia told us that you were on a date with another woman. She also said that you'll abandon me as soon as you have a new baby." Sophia was dumbfounded.

'What the f*ck?! Renfrew Duval, you son of a b*tch!"

"Dick, I'm sorry. I lost control of my mouth for a split second before. I'll apologize to Hesper..."

Hesper interrupted Sophia's explanation halfway. "Alright, if you want to put on an act, just go home and do it in front of the mirror." She still had work to attend to, so she did not have time to watch Rickard and Sophia quarrel.

With that being said, she handed Renfrew to Rickard.

"I'll... see you next week then?" Rickard asked tentatively.

Hesper's eyebrows raised as she heard the words but then she waved her hand kindly. "Yes, I'll see you

next week."
