Meanwhile, it was evening when Hesper woke up. She looked outside at the sky and realized how long she had slept. She felt around for her phone and realized Sherese had called her a few times that afternoon. She tapped on her brows and sat up then called back. It only took two rings before Sherese picked up while sounding a little breathless. "You're finally awake. I was going to go over to the Deschamps's."Hesper felt a little guilty for texting her and then disappearing. A lot was going on at that time, so it was understandable that Sherese was worried. "I'm sorry… But how did you know I was sleeping?"Sherese scoffed. "I asked Zaylor. If I wasn't worried that you were dead, I wouldn't even talk to him."Zaylor and Sherese always had a bone to pick with each other. It wasn't easy to make her speak to him. Hesper was touched. "Is this about the DNA test results?"Sherese paused, surprised. "How did you guess that? I thought you'd ask about Rickard."Knowing that Hesper w

On the surface, it didn't seem like there would be any issues. If the issue was out of your control, you would improvise and adapt to it. The problem was that Charles didn't trust her enough to let her out of his sight. Now that Antoine was following her around, she could imagine how difficult it would be for her to hide the fact that she had recovered her memories. "Why did Julian suddenly go back to Halwanest? Do you know?" Hesper spoke convincingly with a dark expression. "If you don't know the reason for his return, I can't just go after him. I'm guessing that my dad doesn't trust him."Antoine's eyes darted away at that. "Dad let me handle him so that I could keep an eye on him. I already know about the relationship between Julian Zink and Hesper.""Mr. Deschamps had no intention of using your relationship with him."Hesper smirked. "I would think so because he's my father."Antoine fell silent because he knew he misspoke. Hesper continued. "If Julian went back to Halw

Hesper only had to think about the scenario and her head started hurting. She immediately felt that staying at Fredonia and going against Charles didn't seem too bad after all. That was why Jessie didn't fight to come and get her. She was just sulking and throwing a little tantrum. Hesper put that aside because there was bigger fish to fry. There was no way Charles was going to leave her unattended for a long time, so Antoine wouldn't be sitting around in Fredonia. She would have at most a few days before he showed up, so she had to plan things well so everyone who knew she got her memories back would keep their mouths shut. It would be easy to deal with everyone, but Rachael Lane would be the biggest problem. Rachael and Celine were probably terrified after finding out about Zenovia's death. They probably didn't contact Hesper because of the conspiracy theories online that made them think Hesper was the one who killed her, so they didn't dare do anything. However, that wou

On the way to the studio, Hesper texted Jessie, so when they met, Jessie was calm. Hesper only left temporarily to work and now she was back. Unlike the last time they parted, Jessie showed the accounts of the studio to Hesper. The newer designers hired by Hestia started to have their own ideas. Even without Hesper's leadership, the studio was working well. They would close a new deal on a daily basis, so compared to other studios, especially the quiet and dried-up studio of Rachael, this was a good result. Although Hesper heard that the studio was doing well, when she actually saw the results, she was gratified. She didn't know if Jessie noticed, but when she came back this time, they were doing so much better. Jessie managed to manage the studio very well even though she was on her own. "Rachael has run out of ideas now. They were using your designs before, but no matter how many of those they had, it had to run out one day." Jessie raised her chin and looked arrogant. "The

Rachael was feeling down, so when she heard that, she bounced back. Celine could hear the taunting in Hesper's voice, so she patted Rachael's back and turned to get the door. "I thought I wouldn't be welcomed here."After taking a look at Celine, she walked in and stared at Rachael's pale face. She knew Rachael did some mental gymnastics before her arrival. How could she pretend to be someone from an affluent family with the guts she had?She couldn't tell if it was because Rachael was too dumb or the people behind her were too powerful. "I came here to ask you a few questions. There's no need to feel nervous." Hesper smiled, but to Rachael, she looked like a perverted killer who was teasing them, so she shook even more violently. Celine walked in front of Hesper and lowered her gaze. "Stop scaring her."Hearing that, Hesper glanced over and walked a few steps closer to her, then smiled a joyless smile. "Should I scare you instead then?"Celine was much calmer than Rachael,
