A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love
Chapter 636

Benji was observing Hesper. She seemed to realize that her face was the all-access pass around the Duval Group office building, so she managed to get to Rickard's room. Rickard's office had a digital lock. Benji saw her hit a few buttons and easily get in.

Rickard looked in the direction Benji was pointing at and saw Hesper sitting on the couch in his office. He was surprised. She had a bone to pick every time she was there but silently sitting there was something only the Hesper who had lost her memory would do.

Rickard walked over. Hestia heard him walking and looked up, then stood up and said, "I don't know how I opened the door. I just randomly tapped on a few numbers... I guess it was a memory from my past." The passcode for the office was Renfrew's birthday. Rickard never changed it. Other than him and Benji, Hesper guessed it when she temporarily took over Duval Group.

"How can I help you, Ms. Deschamps?"

Hestia was a little surprised because she thought Rickard would keep holding on to her past identity like everyone else. When she saw him, her heart thumped so hard that she knew she still had feelings for him.

"I've come up with a method for inspection for the project we're working on together." Hesper's lips curled into a smile. "I'll be involved in the entire project and monitor every step of the way. If there are parts I don't approve of, I'll terminate the contract immediately."

That was part of their agreement that releases them from liability. Hestia checked the agreement the night before, so she knew doing that wouldn't bring problems to the family.

All Hestia wanted was for Rickard to fail.

Benji mumbled 'capitalist' and then realized that his boss was part of the capitalist group, so he fell quiet and took a few steps away from them.

Rickard felt helpless but he wouldn't deny Hesper's wishes, so he nodded and agreed.

"I don't have anywhere to stay in Genecity. Your building looks nice, so why not give me an office here so I can monitor your work at any given moment?" "Arrange for that, Benji."

Benji nodded. Hestia happily picked up her bag and raised her chin at Benji. "Thank you, Mr. Lynch. We'll be working together closely soon."

Benji paused for a few seconds, then smiled.

That sounded more like a threat.

The DNA test results came out very soon. Hestia received it the moment she got out of the building. Matthew wasn't lying because she was indeed his biological sister.

After seeing the results, Hestia didn't know whether to be relieved or to sigh. However, getting in touch with Matthew and replaceing out what happened to her half a year ago was crucial.

Hestia didn't like to waste time, so she immediately called the number Matthew gave her.

"Have you gotten the results?"
