A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love
Chapter 631

Rickard called Matthew and described what happened to him. His mind was blank.

This was too unbelievable. Rickard didn't want to get his own hopes up. He heard with his own ears Hesper cutting him off and he witnessed the factory burning with his own eyes.

He didn't want to give himself any more hope because he was afraid he would fall into despair if the hope was destroyed.

"I'll be there ASAP." Matthew sounded unusually calm after hearing that. "We have to keep her around. Recovering her memory is something we'll do later on."

Unlike Rickard, he was used to searching and failing. He had been searching for someone his entire life, from 'Rachael' in the past to Hesper now.

Rickard went to check the surveillance camera at his own home. It followed Hesper around, and he realized that she was either zoning out among a group of people or sneaking a slice of cake. She didn't seem to want to leave for now.

After hanging up, Rickard still couldn't resist the crazy thoughts in his heart and went to the living room to see Hesper.

Hestia sat on the couch in the corner reading the menu for the banquet that night. Suddenly, there was a shadow. She looked up and her heart skipped a beat.

"Hello... Do I know you?"

"Rickard Duval."

Seeing 'Hestia Deschamps' who was completely different from Hesper other than her looks, Rickard calmly breathed, then his eyes turned dark.

Hesper had no memory of him. This Hesper Rivera was Hesper and also wasn't Hesper at the same time.

Hestia balled up her fist that was hidden from Rickard. The man standing before her was the same person in her dreams. Even though she couldn't clearly see that person's face, she just knew it was him.

It was as though on a random rainy night, the person looked down on her with a cold expression.

Hestia's mind was racing but Rickard already sat down. They were a decent distance apart.

However, Hestia didn't notice it and said, "I'm Hestia Deschamps. Rickard Duval... You're Mr. Duval from Duval Group?"

"Yes."

"Nice to meet you. From the way you look at me, this doesn't seem to be the first time you've seen me." Hestia tested him. "Could you have known me before?"

"I do."

Hestia was surprised that he admitted to it. Rickard didn't say anything more but instead drank the entire glass of low alcohol content drink that was in front of him. "Now that you're in Halwanest, why don't you stay for a little longer? There are a lot of interesting things to see in Genecity. I'm sure you'll replace them fascinating." "Are the things interesting, or is it because there were too many fond memories?"

Hestia smiled and looked curious, but it looked like she was pretending to smile. Even though she didn't know if this person had any past relationships with her, the pain in her heart was a hint. If she couldn't replace the source of the pain, she would replace joy elsewhere.
