A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 404

Since there was an important appointment the next day, Hesper forced herself to sleep, but she only

fell asleep when it was almost dawn.

Roberto probably took that into account since he only went to see her when it was noon.

Hesper had a long dream. She remembered that a lot happened in it, but when she woke up, all she

felt was anxiety-

That was why even though she had a sufficient amount of sleep, she still felt tired.

Roberto looked at her and knew that she must have been through a lot. “You look tired. It could be jet

lag, but you might need a few days to recover.”

However, even though he was her mentor, he didn’t want to get involved with her personal life.

Hesper nodded then sighed. Her beautiful eyes were still shining but they weren’t as bright as before.

Roberto’s friend was Halwanese. Hesper didn’t know Antellon that well, but she knew that Roberto had

been driving for a long time because it became less and less crowded.

“He’s not very sociable, so he lives a little far away from town. He once broke his leg, and I had to go

and get him. If I didn’t, there could have been terrible consequences.”

Hesper could tell that Roberto and this friend of his were not ordinary friends. They were probably

closer.

Roberto paused, then continued. “He’s a little eccentric and can be very impolite, so if he said

something that offends you, please forgive him… He’s not very careful with his words.”

Hesper would know how to act even if Roberto didn’t say that. Roberto’s friend would be an older

person and what she wanted to do wasn’t something that anyone could help with.

About twenty minutes later, they finally got to their destination.

Hesper thought that a place so far out of town wouldn’t just be a small house since the man was living

alone. However, when she saw the vineyard, she went silent.

“Cough…” Roberto parked the car, got out, and said, “My friend… is comfortable.”

Someone who could live there wouldn’t just be affluent, they were probably a millionaire!

Hesper walked into the hallway with Roberto. If Roberto weren’t walking very quickly, Hesper would

think that they had passed the same place a few minutes ago.

There were all kinds of plants there, many that were commonly found in Fredonia. Hesper didn’t know

much about plants but she knew that it would take a lot of effort to grow plants that could survive

through winter.

“All of these are taken care of by the gardener. There will always be flowers here, no matter the

season.”

The man was rich and had a lot of time on his hands.

Hesper walked behind Roberto. If she weren’t his protege, none of this would have been possible.

We’re almost there,” Roberto said. Hesper looked up and realized that they were now in a different

garden.

“Stephen?”

Not far away, a man in white bent over the flowerbed. He looked up when he heard Roberto’s voice. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

When Hesper saw his face, she suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, but she didn’t know where she had

seen him before.

The man named Stephen had a beautiful face that you couldn’t have guessed his. age from. However,

when Hesper took a closer look, he looked different from anyone she had ever seen.
