There was a knock on the door, and Juniper was so frightened that she almost jumped out of her bed.
She then asked angrily, “Who is it?”
The person outside the door did not speak, and it took a while for Ariana to open the door and walk in,
looking a little worried. “Juni.”“
Seeing that it was her mother, Juniper took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness and displeasure
in her heart, and said in a soft voice, “Mom, is there anything urgent? I have some work to do right now.
If there’s nothing too urgent, let me get my work done first.”
Ariana walked up to Juniper and took her hand. “Juni, be honest with me. Hesper Rivera just ran into
an accident in Salt City. Do you have anything to do with it?”
Juniper did not expect her mother to be so perceptive. Since she was a child, she had always been a
well- behaved and obedient child in everyone’s mind, and she was the center of envy of all girls of the
same. age, so she would never admit to committing such a murderous act.
“Mom! How could you think of me as such a person?!” Juniper turned her head away. “I might love.
Rickard, but I’m not insane.”
Ariana cast a profound gaze at her daughter and then sighed. “Forget it, I’ll just pretend that you’re not
the one behind this incident. But, Juniper, will you look back and see what you’ve done so far? Can
you
tell me where the daughter that I’ve always been very proud of has gone? And all of this just for a
man?”
“Mom!” Juniper flung Ariana’s hand off her arm and said impatiently, “If you still suspect me, then I
have. nothing else to say to you. Rickard was my lover in the first place. Hesper is the one who used
disgraceful means to marry Rickard and become his wife later on. And they’re currently divorced, so it’s
only normal. for me and Rickard to reconcile. I don’t think I’ve lost my pride. If you have nothing else to
say, you can leave already, I’m working here.”
The two did not end the conversation on good terms: Ariana looked at the closed door and shook her
head.
“I just hope that Juniper won’t sink deeper and deeper.
The morning passed extremely quickly when she had to deal with work all day. Hesper then gave
herself a well-deserved break in the early evening, lying on the hospital bed and watching short videos
while waiting for Matthew to arrive.
The door of the ward was pushed open at that moment. However, Hesper was not facing the entrance
of the ward and had to turn over. It was not easy for her to turn over with the wound on her back, so
she could only try to turn herself over very slowly.
“You arrived quite soon. I thought it’d at least take you half an hour to get here.”
“I arrived quite soon?”
An unexpected and familiar voice sounded from behind her, and Hesper’s eyes instantly widened.
“Isaac? Isaac!”
“You b*tch, my son is still lying on the hospital bed and has yet to regain consciousness, yet you’re
here, lying in bed and playing with your phone with peace of mind?”
Julie stepped forward and grabbed Hesper by her shoulder blades. Hesper yelled out in pain.
Isaac rushed in as soon as he heard Hesper’s voice. Seeing the scene in front of him, he immediately.
stepped forward and pulled Julie off Hesper’s body, subduing the middle-aged woman on the ground.
“Ms. Lane! Are you okay?!”
Madam Duval had pressed down onto Hesper’s wound, who could feel the scabbed wound opening
again, and the pain was excruciating.
“Dislocate her arm…”
When Julie heard Hesper’s words, she was about to yell, but then she felt a sharp pain in her
shoulder.”
Crack–!”
‘The b*tch’s man actually twisted my right arm out!’
“Ah! Hesper… Hesper Rivera, have you lost your mind?! Do you know who I am?”
Hesper gritted her teeth, enduring the severe pain coming from the wound, as she supported herself to
sit up and glared down at Julie.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
