A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 432

“Again.”

Hesper laid on the floor when Seth’s voice came from above. She waved her hand. “Give me some

time, don’t rush it.”

Seth looked down at her and sighed. “Are you still not giving up?”

“Of course not. I knew it was going to be tiring before I started learning thisss…” Hesper flipped around This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

and sat up. “I’m not going to give up.”

Seth was surprised when he reached out to help her up.

“Thanks.”

Watching her hype herself up even though she looked half dead, Seth was silent for a while before he

said, “Your leg was injured in the past, right? It looks pretty bad.”

“You could tell?” Hesper was surprised. “You’re so skinny. I thought you only learned kickboxing for

self-defense but it turns out you’re quite good at this.”

Seth cleared his throat awkwardly. “I’m very professional.”

Remembering their previous topic, Seth spoke in a deep voice. “Your leg is still injured, so if you want

to learn kickboxing, it might cause more friction. I don’t think you should continue.”

“Friction,” Hesper repeated, then casually shrugged. “So what if I start limping? The injury is already

there. I can’t deny that what you said is true, but if I can’t defend myself, I might lose more than a leg.”

Seth didn’t ask more questions. I can only teach you simple self-defence but your body won’t be able to

endure high-impact training. You need to know that.”

“Yes, I understand Hesper leaned closer with twinkling eyes. “So does that mean you’re going to

teach me?”

“Don’t get too close.” Seth took a step back. “Yes”

A week after the murder downtown, the police called Hesper again.

The victim was the son of an affluent man in Antellon and was sent to jail because of bodily assault and

sexual assault. However, he was bailed out by his family. The most recent crime he committed was

armed murder with a gun, but he was released after pulling some strings.

It seemed as though the chances of him being murdered as revenge was very high. Hesper was just a

student who just got there and wasn’t linked to the deceased, so it was probably an accident.

It looked flawless. 013 had behaved recently, so Hesper started to consider if she was overthinking.

After hanging up, she sent a text to Roberto.

[Roberto: Don’t worry, even though Antellon isn’t as safe as our country, the police aren’t just

bitting around either. They’re not going to randomly attack.]

[Hesper: Hmm, I guess I worry too much.]

Even though the danger was still lurking around the corner, when she knew that what happened wasn’t

related to her, she still gave a sigh of relief.

The man’s bloodshot eyes that glared at her before he died would sometimes appear in Hesper’s

dreams. If some unrelated person lost their lives because they were trying to send a message, she

wouldn’t be alright with that.

The days passed and the first semester ended. Hesper familiarized herself with Fredonia and life. in

Antellon.
