《A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love》全部章節：第 11 章 - 第 20 章

Hesper’s fever broke the next day. She was not severely ill to begin with; she just caught a cold after bowing down for a night in her malnourished state. It was fortunate that she was sent to the hospital in time and received an intravenous infusion, which allowed her body to gradually recover its functions. It was quite amusing, really. She risked her life to give birth to the Duvals' eldest grandchild, yet she could only replenish her nutrition in the hospital. No one would believe her if she were to tell them what happened. Hesper consumed her chicken soup in small sips when someone kicked open the door of her room all of a sudden. The elegantly-dressed Madam Duval walked into the room with two other women. “Yikes, look at you having the appetite to eat chicken soup. It seems that you’re not all that seriously ill.”Hesper coldly glanced at her. She did not have a favorable impression toward the Duvals after experiencing the recent ordeals. She replied in a mocking tone, “

“Don’t question anymore, Mrs. Duval. I just happened to fall.”How hard must one fall in order to be injured to this extent?She should have expected this to happen. Madam Duval and Sophia loathed her, so it was only natural that they would discriminate against Wanda for saving her. Perhaps Wanda was tormented so frequently by these people in the past two years when she was hospitalized that Wanda did not have the courage to talk about them. Hesper was furious. “You're in your current state because of me, so I’m going to uphold justice for you.”“Don’t, Mrs. Duval!” Wanda pulled at Hesper strenuously with tears streaming down her face. “Madam Duval and Ms. Duval have always been domineering. If you uphold justice for me, it will only give them a reason to punish you even more. The baby is still young; think about him, and take care of yourself.”Hesper, however, could not make peace with the fact that she involved the aging Wanda in her matter after she had endured so many hard

“Hesper!”Rickard’s eyes widened in shock at that very moment. He shakily stretched out his hand, but Hesper’s gaze remained locked on the bundle before her. She spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and said, “My baby…”She wanted to check on the baby, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not reach the edge of the bundle with her fingertips. It was only a few millimeters away, but the distance separated life and death. The vision before Hesper’s eyes went black, and she shut her eyes completely. “Hesper!” The usually calm man was already thrown into a panic by now. He roared frantically, “Call the ambulance! Call the ambulance, quick!”The bodyguard standing behind him immediately took action while Benji picked up the bundle cautiously. His expression changed drastically after taking one glance. “Sir…”Rickard looked over shakily, as he recognized the bundle as the baby’s blanket. Hesper jumped off the tall building because of the baby. However, when he opened up t

However, they did not expect Rickard to actually assign a bodyguard to watch her on a 24-hour basis. Let alone a man, not even a fly could fly near her. Sophia and Juniper did not manage to figure out a way through the entire night. Just as they were at a loss of what to do, news came from the hospital that Hesper was already awake.“What should we do, what should we do? Rickard will hate us if she tells him everything.”Juniper assumed a panic-stricken expression at last. Had she known that Hesper would be so foolish, she would not have done that to Hesper. But she did do it, and not only did she not finish off Hesper, it was possible that she could be exposed at any moment.Juniper considered herself lucky that she and Sophia were on the same boat while it was very apparent that Sophia would not make peace with the current situation willingly. “Mom, can’t you just bring a few women and barge into the room when Dick is not around? We’ll just say that her body was too weak to

Rickard took a deep glance at her and casted a look at Benji so he would handle it. However, it was at this exact moment that a mocking, female voice was heard. “There’s no need to trouble yourself.”Sophia and Juniper entered the room.Hesper appeared to be agitated once again as soon as she saw them, her eyes filled with deep hatred. “How dare you come here, you murderers!”“You must be sick in the head, Hesper. Why would we have the courage to come here?”Sophia mocked in a cold voice, “Weren’t you asking my brother to check our phones? I'll fulfill your wish. However, I’m just going to put this out bluntly. If you can’t find anything, I won’t pretend that nothing happened after you defamed me and Juni like this!”She handed two phones to Benji. Rickard nodded and Benji immediately left the room to deal with the phones. Sophia seized the opportunity to seek pity. “Dick, no one feels good after an incident like this happened. It’s fine that you're suspicious of me, but aren’
