A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love
Chapter 659

It was a complete family tree of the Sulzbachs, along with some miscellaneous information and rumors. It was actually more comprehensive than Hestia had imagined.

While Rickard was driving, Hestia read through the information with rapt attention.

In the previous generation of the Sulzbach family, there were numerous members, but only Silvan and Ehren remained in their own generation. This was due to the fact that, apart from their father who lived long enough to marry and have children, the other members of their generation either disappeared without explanation or died from various causes.

Ignoring those who were clearly marked as dead, Hestia roughly examined the missing persons, and surprisingly, there were four people.

Frowning and comparing their ages and times of disappearance, two of them matched the person Hestia's father had mentioned. Hestia circled two names-Azariah and Skylar, respectively.

Although she had identified her targets, both of them had disappeared more than ten years ago. Even the people of the Sulzbachs did not know where they were, and it was unclear whether they were dead or alive.

While Hestia was contemplating her next move, their car suddenly stopped. She was taken by surprise, and hit her forehead against the back of the seat in front of her.

"What happened?"

This collision caused some memories to return to Hestia for a moment. She caught glimpses of several familiar and unfamiliar scenes, but they vanished when she tried to focus on them.

"Hestia? Hestia?"

With Rickard's voice gradually entering her ears, Hestia was brought back to reality. She furrowed her brow and shook her head before looking straight ahead.

"Somebody is standing in front of the road, so I had to brake suddenly. Are you okay?" Rickard reached out to Hestia, but she turned her head to avoid it and smoothed out the strands of hair on her forehead. "I'm fine. Who is it?"

Rickard turned his head around and looked at Zoya, who was standing in front of their car with her arms outstretched. Zoya saw Rickard as well, but she refused to move away. It seemed to him that she would not go away as long as Hesper did not come out and talk to her.

Following Rickard's gaze, Hestia also saw the person standing in front of their car.

'Isn't she the girl who passed out at the mall that day?'

As soon as the thought surfaced in Hestia's head, another came in as well.

'She's Nathaniel's sister. She probably isn't someone who's easy to deal with.'

"I'll go down to talk to her," Hestia said.

Without waiting for Rickard's response, Hestia stepped out of the car and made her way towards Zoya, who was still standing with her arms outstretched. The collision had jogged some memories loose in Hestia's mind, and she recalled a similar encounter with Zoya from her past.

Their confrontation happened at night as well, and she seemed to be holding a box at that time.

"I have something to tell you," Zoya said. She did not behave like her age at all.

Hestia raised her eyebrows. "You can just say it now."

However, Zoya shook her head. "It's still not the right time yet. Let's exchange contact information first. When the time is right, I'll tell you. I'm not gonna hurt you, Hesper."

Hestia fell silent for a moment, but eventually took out her phone and let Zoya add her contact information.

Stopping a car at midnight was not an easy feat, as it required a certain level of courage.

Hestia was confident that she would never resort to such an extreme measure. Since the little girl in front of her was brave enough to do so, it was only natural that Hestia had the courage to exchange contact information with her.
