Chapter 288

Matthew shook his head T not very familiar with this lad either vehe same Ume to look into his background frat Doen he know you?

Reaper returned to the Lanes in a rather conspicuous manner, and all the extended Tamilies below her were watching her very carefully all this white This, it was normal for Hesper to not know Shawn, but f was definitely odd for Shawn to not know Hespoi

7 don't know about that either Hesper shook hol head

If she had not heard someone talking about it, she would not even have noticed Shawn's existence t addition to that, the two of them had not met each other at all during the competition, so Hesper really had no idea whether Shawn knew her identity or not

"Okay, I got it You should also replace a way to see if he knows you in the next round Uncle Theo has been pretty obedient for the past two years Matthew frowned. "But if he's indeed planning to lay his fingers DN you, I'll definitely hunt them to the end of the world"

Wilfred, who was the uncle that had conspired against Hesper the most over the years, was still hiding in Emperion and dared not show up But Hesper did not doubt Matthew's suspicion at all and gave off a grin. "Then I'll leave it all to you, Matt By the way, I'm about to go out and bay some ingredients to make lunch So, can I take your order now?

Before the fourth round of the competition began, Hesper had to attend a more important event

Arthur's seventieth birthday was this weekend, which was why Hesper had been rushing all her work. The seventieth birthday celebration was an extremely important affair, so no matter what, she had to go back and spend some time with her grandpa

After working overtime with Matthew for a few days, the two of them finally managed to finish then work before Friday, and they felt exceptionally relaxed when they exited the company "Compared to yesterday, I think the sun looks brighter today"

Hesper shook her head melancholily, and Matthew smiled when he saw her reaction "Grandpa will surely be very happy to see you go back. Do some math How long has it been since you came back to Genecity and haven't seen him?"

'It has indeed been a really long time..."

Hesper thought of how much kindness Arthur had been showing her and let off a faint sigh. "Actually. I still feel very guilty. I've been receiving so much love from Grandpa because I've taken over Rach's identity. Whenever I see Grandpa wanting to bring me the whole world, I always feel a little distressed deep down."

"Rach..." As soon as Rachael was mentioned, Matthew's gaze slightly dimmed, but he then shook his head and rubbed the top of Hesper's head. "Anyway, during these days when I couldn't replace Rach, you're the one who's been staying by our side, and these moments have made genuine memories too. It's not that you're impersonating her, it's I who asked you to do so."

Hesper nodded, and then changed the subject. "The gift that I've prepared for Grandpa this time around must suit his taste more than what you've prepared, so just you wait."

"Oh, really?" Matthew chuckled, and his gaze was once again filled with tenderness. "I don't believe it"

"Hey!"

In the evening, Rickard received a text from Hesper, saying that she was going back to Emperion that weekend to celebrate Elder Master Lane's birthday, so she would not be around to accompany Renfrew, asking him to explain it to Renfrew on her behalf.

Rickard replied to the message with an "Okay" then refunded the previously reserved tickets.

Renfrew just so happened to be writing programs and codes in Rickard's study. Rickard had found out about Renfrew's special talent some time ago and had been asking him to come into his study to complete the task that the unknown friend had given him.

Every hacker had his own special codings, and Rickard knew a thing or two about this field. However, he did not put much effort into developing his hacking skills back then, so he was not very proficient in it.

Renfrew was very fast when it came to creating programs, and sometimes he could even understand everything with only a single clue provided. Rickard never thought that his son would show such amazing talent at such a young age. In any case, he must replace a way to thank that unknown friend.
