Chapter 542
"We’ve already lost. Do you still plan to stay here and embarrass yourself?"
Juniper seemed to have been dragged back to her senses by Carter’s words. She instantly tore the
contract in her hand into pieces and glared at Hesper hatefully. "You must have cast some kind of
voodoo or spell on my mom to make her stand by your side."
"Voodoo? Spell?" Hesper scoffed. She stood up and walked up to Juniper. "If you think Mrs. Wight
betrayed you for an outsider, then you’re a real imbecile."
Hesper had never had a mother, so she did not know how great a mother’s love could be, but from her
point of view, everything that Ariana had done so far was to protect Juniper, a daughter who went on
creating more and more trouble.
Juniper sneered, shifting her gaze from Hesper to her mother, who was weeping silently not far away.
Then she nodded. "I should’ve known a long time ago that no one in this world loves me, not a lover
nor my family."
"Juni..."
Juniper shook her head. Her bloodshot eyes looked as if they belonged to a demon that had just
crawled its way out of hell. "Don’t you dare call me that! From now on, I’m no longer your daughter!
Since you like standing on Hesper’s side and helping her instead of me, why not make her your
daughter?!"
Hesper strode up to Juniper and grasped her by the arm. Juniper struggled subconsciously, wanting to
break free of Hesper’s grip.
However, Hesper had completely recovered now. Coupled with the fact that she had learned kickboxing
with Seth for such a long time, it was not easy for ordinary people to break free from her at all.
Seeing this, Benji instantly started working with Renee to urge the others to leave the room. After all,
the grudges between these few people were extremely messy; it did not seem too appropriate for
outsiders to stay back and witness what was about to unfold.
"What do you think you’re doing? Let me go!" NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
Juniper sounded like a pig awaiting slaughter, but Hesper did not give her a chance to struggle. She
slapped Juniper across the face.
"This is for Mrs. Wight. She’s worked so hard to raise you into who you are today. Not only do you not
give her any credit, but you also don’t appreciate her effort at all. What makes you think you’re in a
position to hate her so much?"
Ariana cried. Seeing Juniper get slapped felt even more painful than being slapped herself, but what
Hesper just said hurt as if the words had pierced through her heart.
‘I really did spoil Juniper too much. If it weren't for my doting ways and soft attitude, Juniper wouldn’t
have grown into what she is today.’
Before Juniper could react, Hesper slapped her again.
"And this slap is for me. You know better than anyone else just what kind of things you instigated Mrs.
Duval and Sophia into doing to me back then. I won't bother listing them out one by one."
"Aaah! Hesper Rivera, I’m going to kill——!"
Another slap followed. At this point, Juniper had already been completely subdued by Hesper. She did
not even have the chance to resist and could only scream at the top of her lungs.
"This is for Rickard. He’s never done anything to wrong you, but you actually teamed up with Carter to
take over his company? What makes you think that you’re worthy of owning Duval Group?"
After three slaps, the delicate makeup on Juniper’s face had already turned into mush, but immediately
after that, another slap landed on her again, leaving her in complete bewilderment.
"And this is for Mr. Duval Sr.. He’s always been kind to others, not to mention that you’re someone who
he witnessed growing up. He's never treated you badly even once since you were a kid, yet today, you
were only inches away from flushing all his life’s hard work down the drain.”
Hesper withdrew her hand expressionlessly. She had put everything she had into these few slaps, so
every single one of them packed punches. As for Juniper, both of her cheeks were swollen from all the
slapping; she could not say anything to defend herself anymore. As soon as Hesper let her go, she
slumped on the chair powerlessly.
