Chapter 104
On the other side of the city, Juniper’s face was still not recovering after such a long time, and the
elders of the Wights were all very anxious about her condition.
In the ward of the hospital, seeing that the face of her beautiful daughter had swollen so much, to the
extent that she was on the verge of not being able to recognize her own daughter, Ariana’s heart hurt
from the wrath within.
“Damn that b*tch! How can she be this cruel? A lady’s face is her most important asset. She’s just
trying to ruin Juniper at this point!”
Ariana hammered her chest in frustration and alluded
intentionally to Julie, who was sitting on the other side of the room, “Madam Duval, the incident
happened right in front of your house, and Rickard’s ex-wife is the one who did this. How do you plan to
deal with this?”
“Don’t get too fired up, Madam Wight.” Julie forced a smile. She was called here by Ariana, and the two
families had a great relationship, so it was only sensible for her to come and pay Juniper a visit.
However, Juniper’s condition was indeed worse than she expected. Julie could not come up with a
solution at the
moment.
“That’s easy for you to say. It’s my daughter’s future that we’re talking about now. How can I not be
pissed?” Listening to her evasive words, Ariana refuted her directly with a cold face.”
Madam Duval, forgive me if I sound rather offensive at this moment, but our families have been friends
for so many years, so if our relationship were to be ruined by this matter, you should do the math to see
whether it’s worth it or not. What’s more, this incident was caused because of Rickard at the end of the
day. That b*tch must be jealous of my daughter because she’s gotten too close to Rickard, and that’s This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
why she’s done something so ruthless.”
“I know, you’re right.” Julie reluctantly agreed but could not help but sneer deep down.
‘Are you saying that Dick is the one who caused this? Are you even listening to yourself saying this? If
it wasn’t because of Juniper’s obsession over Rickard, would she even end up here in a hospital?’
But she could not utter this in front of the Wights, so she could only sigh and pretended to comfort
Juniper. “Juni, you poor girl, I’m sorry that you have to suffer because of this incident. But don’t worry,
I’ll definitely find the best doctors in the country for you so that we can heal your face.”
Ariana did not buy into Julie’s offer. “Madam Duval, we’ve
already contacted many doctors, but the key to the cure still lies with that b*tch. At the end of the day,
we still need to start with her.”
“Then this is going to be difficult.” Julie did not want to be a part of this hot potato, so she immediately
tried to come up with excuses. “Both of you should know that b*tch’s temperament as well as I do,
shouldn’t you? So how do you expect me to talk her into handing us the cure? I’m afraid that the longer
it takes, the more we’ll delay the treatment for Juni’s facial crisis.”
“Madam Duval!” Juniper was furious. How could she not
understand Julie’s cop-out and prevarication? She then
questioned her with bloodshot eyes, “Are you saying that your won’t help me with this matter?”
“I don’t mean that, Juni…”
“That’s enough!” Ariana, unable to stand it anymore, interrupted her coldly. She took a deep breath and
said meaningfully, ” Madam Duval, you and Juniper have always been close, so of course, we know
that you won’t do nothing about this matter. It’s just that it can’t be delayed any longer. After all, Juniper
wasn’t the only one who wanted to get that b*tch killed back then. If Rickard were to know about it, I’m
afraid that…”
Julie’s expression changed in an instant, knowing that she was being threatened.
Although she was Rickard’s biological mother and he would not do anything ruthless to her, the power
of the Duvals was currently all in Rickard’s hands, so if she were to fall out with her
son…
“I understand, don’t worry. I’ll approach that b*tch right now, and get her to hand over the cure no
matter what.” Julie agreed to help without any hesitation.
Ariana smiled but there was not even a trace of hilarity in her
eyes.
‘This old hag only wants to stay out of the matter after taking advantage of Juniper. Sorry, but there is
no free lunch in my book!
Julie left the hospital, and although she was not very happy
about the outcome, she could only put her promise into action. as soon as possible.
She called Benji and asked him as soon as the call went through, “Where is Hesper Rivera living
now?”
“Ma’am, why are you asking this?”
Julie lied with an unchanged expression, “Didn’t Ren go to her place? The weather is changing soon
and I’m worried about Ren’s well-being, so I want to send something to her place.”
Benji frowned.
‘Madam Duval has always been rather unconcerned when it comes to anything related to the young
master, so why would she be so kind to him all of a sudden?’
While he was still hesitating, Julie had already gotten impatient and urged him for an answer, “Benji,
you should know your place better. I’m asking you for an address. How dare you push back. my
request?”
“No, ma’am, that’s not what I mean. I’ll send the address to your phone right now.” Benji quickly
apologized.
