Semua Bab A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love: Bab 1801 - Bab 1810

Camille recognized that it was unnecessary to engage with someone like Ermione, a mere pawn with little value, who wasn't worth her attention."Now, isn't there someone more significant to hold accountable?" Hesper inquired, lacing her words with sarcasm.Hearing Hesper's words, Camille immediately grasped the intention behind them and redirected her gaze towards the elderly butler, Adrian, who stood at the sidelines.Adrian's eyes welled up with an expression of confusion, as he couldn't comprehend why just one brief statement had prompted both women to turn their attention in his direction.His mind raced as he staggered toward Camille and seized her hand. "Ms. Camille, you've finally returned!"Observing Adrian's demeanor, one could almost believe in the close master-servant relationship between them, particularly since he had been entrusted with the decoration of the apartment.However, betrayal, once uncovered, deserved no mercy in Camille's eyes.Facing the elderly man sta

As soon as the red dot came to a halt, the group sprang into action. According to their agreement, Hesper remained in the car. Not causing any additional trouble was her primary contribution to this operation."Please come back safely," Hesper said, gazing into Rickard's eyes.Rickard nodded confidently. "Don't worry."Hesper knew that Rickard would prioritize safety, especially with a sizable group accompanying him this time. With the advanced weaponry provided by the Moreaus, Charles stood little chance.Additionally, for the safety of their unborn child, Charles would likely avoid confrontation, making their mission relatively straightforward.Hesper sat in the car and observed as everyone disembarked. A small group stayed behind to protect her. Despite her unease, Hesper hoped that nothing unexpected would occur during the operation."Ma'am, please try not to worry too much. Even if things don't go as planned, returning safely is a high likelihood," reassured Dylan, the team

"Taking this lady away with us is like holding Charles's weakness in the center of our palms. Especially when the person we're exchanging is me, Hesper." Despite harboring doubts about their chances of success, Hesper spoke with unwavering conviction. "Even if Charles discovers that it's me, he won't lay a hand on me."The guards were uncertain about the veracity of Hesper's claims, but for now, they had no choice but to follow her lead.The woman understood that Hesper intended to trade herself for her freedom. While such a move would undoubtedly benefit her, she couldn't help but tear up. After all, she could discern that Hesper was also pregnant, and leaving now might expose her to danger.Time was of the essence, with no room for careful consideration. If too much time elapsed, the other party would undoubtedly grow suspicious, so Hesper had to reach the rendezvous point within a reasonable timeframe.Some of the guards swiftly exited the car with Hesper, while the rest remaine

Without a clear sense of the elapsed time, Hesper estimated that over an hour had passed. Even if they had been driving in circles around Antellon, they should have covered a significant distance by now. However, Hesper didn't believe they were merely driving aimlessly.'We must have left Antellon by now. Charles intends to take Antoinette to another city,' Hesper thought, feeling more alert. She was relieved that she had taken the initiative to come. Otherwise, with so many cities around Antellon, determining their exact location would have been impossible once Antoinette had been moved.Searching through each city one by one would have consumed considerable time, extending beyond just a day or two.After roughly thirty minutes, the car finally came to a halt. Several small towns surrounded Antellon, making it difficult for Hesper to pinpoint their location. However, since the tracker had not been detected, and they had chosen to stop, Rickard and the others would undoubtedly be ab

Rickard and the others followed the tracker's location, but as soon as they entered the city, the marker vanished. From a certain perspective, the disappearance of the tracker's signal on Hesper's body signaled her exposure.Tension rippled through the group, but Camille took a deep breath and speculated, "Charles probably won't harm Hesper. We can't act recklessly now."A subtle undercurrent of emotion flickered in Rickard's eyes as he responded, "I've dispatched my men to search for Hesper's whereabouts. We'll comb through everything along the path we're heading."Upon hearing Rickard's words, Camille nodded, impressed by how composed he appeared. Had she not spent considerable time with him, she might have believed that Rickard was behaving entirely normally.In reality, however, veins throbbed on Rickard's forehead and temples. He was suppressing his emotions because only through this self-control could he focus on locating Hesper.The longer they took, the more perilous the
