Rachael agreed without any hesitation."Okay, we’re going back now." Hesper nodded in satisfaction, stopped pestering her, and said, "I’ll come and pick you up tomorrow. I know your address like the back of my hand, so don’t try to hinder us, Ms. Campbell. Otherwise, even if you flee to the ends of the Earth, I’ll find you."She blinked mischievously, but none of the people present would be fooled by Hesper’s play. However, Rachael only hoped that Hesper would leave immediately so that she could go back to breathing normally.Staring at the imminent storm outside, Hesper grabbed a spare umbrella from the umbrella basket beside her."It looks like it’s about to rain outside, so I'll borrow this umbrella for the night. I’ll see you tomorrow, Ms. Rachael Lane."...After taking a few steps out of the building, it started raining.Hesper did not expect it to rain so abruptly, and she only came here to find Rachael on a whim, so no one followed her there. Now that it started raining

Hesper came back to her senses and nodded in a daze. "I’m going back to Emperion tomorrow, so do take good care of Renfrew in the meantime."Since Julian and Nathaniel are scheming something in the shadows, it should have something to do with Emperion and the hallucinogenic drug incident from back then." Hesper lowered her gaze, and the two of them remained silent for a while as the raindrops continued to hit the roof of the car, letting off a series of rhythmic patter."Hesper, I sometimes can’t get my head around you." Rickard took the initiative to resume the conversation. "You don’t want to be used by someone else, so I don’t use you, but you still seem unhappy."There was nothing much in life that could get Rickard confused. He glanced at Hesper with an expression that she had never seen before; his gaze looked dim, making it difficult for anyone to take their eyes off those melancholic eyes.Hesper turned her head and looked at the heavy rain outside the car window. "That's p

Hesper curled her lips.‘I came prepared today, plus there are so many men from the Lanes around me. I won’t lose you today.’Feeling that the speed of the car was getting faster and faster, Rachael felt a little uneasy. "Why are we going faster and faster?"Of course, Hesper would not answer her. Rachael would only cause more trouble if Hesper were to get her involved. Hence, Hesper raised the screen in the middle of the car, and Rachael instantly felt desperate. "Where are you taking me?! What are you doing? Talk to me!""...Shut up. I’m not going to kill you."Sounding a little impatient, Hesper took a glance at the car that was getting closer and closer to them and then exclaimed, "If you want to survive, shut your mouth. You already can’t stand it just as we arrive in Emperion? What makes you think that you’re coming back here to be the young lady of the Lanes?"Rachael was probably scared, so she kept her mouth shut. Hesper was finally able to keep an eye on the car behind

Hearing this, Hesper pursed her lips and nodded, and the two then walked into Arthur’s room at the same time...."You’ve come back?" Arthur turned his head, saw Hesper who came in side by side with Matthew, and his eyes turned bloodshot in an instant.Hesper was not doing much better either. Looking at her grandfather who had gotten a lot older after only one year, she could not help but feel downcast deep down."Yeah, I’ve come home."Hesper walked up to Arthur’s side. Arthur then reached out, stroked her hair, and beckoned them to sit down."Grandpa, I’ve come back in order to have some things clarified." Although her emotions were on the verge of completely flooding her chest cavity, the most important agenda that she had to attend to right now was to understand why she could not return to the Lanes.Hesper spoke with a determined gaze. "I want to know the things that you’ve been hiding from me. I’m no longer a child."Seeing the resolution that Hesper emitted, Arthur sighe

"Oh, is that so?"Simon looked back at Theodore with a slight hint of reluctance. "Theo, what do you think?"Theodore looked helplessly at his elder brother, who had always been facetious, then looked at Hesper, and said, "I’m very sorry for keeping the truth from you before this, but we only did so to protect you."The culprits behind the hallucinogenic drug incident were still at large, so the best way to protect Hesper was to make outsiders think that she was not "Rachael Lane".Later on, Arthur removed Hesper from her position only to deliver this point even better.Helen had already exposed her two-faced way of doing things before this, but Hesper did not expose her because they were related by blood. She addressed her politely, but Helen no longer dared to pretend to be as loving as she was before and only nodded awkwardly."...Where’s Uncle Will?" Hesper looked around but did not see Wilfred, so she could not help but feel a little puzzled.Matthew explained, "It’s said t
