A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 490

Hesper had some knowledge about gemstones, so she could tell that the price of this bracelet must be

very high.

"This is too valuable; I can't take it." Hesper closed the case and pushed it back to Elise. "I haven't

completed the design for you yet, so please forgive me for not being able to accept it."

As if she had known that Hesper would not accept the bracelet, Elise smiled and shook her head.

"Don't worry, Hesper. It's true that this bracelet is expensive, but price is just a number to me. I think

you look good wearing it, so I'm giving it to you. You should take it."

Even though it sounded a bit aggressive, Hesper knew that Elise was right.

"Then, thank you so much, Aunt Elise."

Hesper took out the bracelet from the box and quickly put it on. Elise was right. The sapphire was clear

and beautiful, and it matched Hesper's fair skin very well.

"See? I know you'd look good wearing it."

Smiling, Elise took Hesper's hand and admired the bracelet carefully for a while. After that, she looked

up and said, "Although we've only met once, you seem so familiar... Did I disturb you by asking you to

come over so late?"

It was true that Elise was disturbing her, but Hesper could see that Elise really liked her from the

bottom of her heart, so she shook her head and said, "No, I still have work to do when I go back."

"That's great… Opps, I mean…" Elise paused for a moment. "You didn't stay for a meal last time, so I

wonder if you'll stay this time?"

"Okay. Thank you so much, Aunt Elise."

Hesper had a special feeling as well when she was looking at Elise. It was as if they were supposed to NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

be very close; she had never had this kind of feeling before.

Perhaps it was because Elise treated her really well.

Hesper shook her head to chase those thoughts out of her head.

"Ma'am, Ms. Rivera, the dinner is ready," a maid said as she knocked on the door.

Grinning happily, Elise said, "Right on time. Let's go. Oh yeah, by the way, my husband is home. But

you don't have to feel too stressed out. He's actually a nice guy."

Hesper nodded. Elise's husband must be a very gentle person since he adored Elise very much.

However, her thoughts were quickly dispelled when she saw her husband in the dining room.

"This is River A. She's the wonderful designer that I told you about before," Elise introduced as she led

Hesper to her seat. Hesper observed the man at the head of the table. His face was cold, but when he

heard Elise's voice, he turned his head and his expression softened slightly. That being said, he was

still far from being gentle.

"This is Charles Deschamps, my husband," Elise said.

Hesper nodded slightly as a gesture of greeting, and Charles replied with a nod as well.

Elise shook her head and grabbed Hesper's hand. "He's a bit shy. You don't have to feel so stressed.

Just treat this place as a friend's house."

'Shy?'

Hesper could not help but glance at Charles and found him also frowning at her. There was a subtle

hint of helplessness and adoration in his eyes.

For some reason, Hesper suddenly found it a bit funny, so she lowered her head and stopped looking

at Charles.

Now she could see that Charles really loved Elise. Although he looked cold on the surface, whenever

he was looking at Elise, the coldness on his face melted away instantly.

Judging from Elise's age, she could have had a child like her, but Hesper had not heard of them having

children during her two visits, so she guessed it might be due to Elise's physical condition that they had

not been able to have any.

Apparently, everything came with a price. Both of them loved each other very much, but they could not

have any kids.
