Hesper turned and left, not giving Rickard a chance to stop her, but he was sure that there must be a
reason she suddenly ran out. He asked Zikmund to go back while he quietly followed her.
Hesper saw the person who attacked her and knew that it wasn’t safe, so she called Isaac as she
walked to ask him to come get her.
The wind was very cold at this time of the year and Hesper was only wearing a thin gown. The wind
would definitely get to her if she stood outside even just for a while. Fortunately, Isaac was worried that NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
something would happen, so he was waiting at a gas station nearby and was able to get there very
soon.
After watching Hesper safely leave with Isaac, Rickard was still not completely relieved and drove after
them, but kept his distance.
After they all left, 013 finally came out from a corner. He had never left but instead changed into a
waiter’s uniform and hid among the crowd, watching her.
“So sensitive.” 013 lowered his head. “I guess I need to be a lot more cautious.”
After Zikmund went back, he had a feeling that something could have happened, but since Hesper and
Rickard both left, there was no reason for him to stay.
When he got back, the auction already ended. Juniper was the highest bidder for the most valuable
item there, so she was showing off. Zikmund was utterly disgusted by her behavior because he would
never expect her to be so cruel. He used to think that Hesper wasn’t good enough for Rickard and that
only a girl like Juniper was good enough.
Juniper put in a lot of effort for the day, so she naturally stayed. Since Hesper and Rickard were no
longer there, all eyes were on her.
“Ms. Wight, you’re someone all the socialites should look up to. It’s good to finally meet you.”
The man kept getting closer to Juniper. She realized that the man kept looking at her body and
definitely had some inappropriate thoughts, so she took a few stops back.
The man didn’t seem to notice how awkward she was feeling and continued walking forward. When he
got closer, he saw that Juniper had a small face and her skin was supple and fair. It was much better
than the C-list celebrities.
“Sir, please control yourself.”
Juniper frowned and wanted the man to get further away from her, but he shook his head. “Don’t you
know who I am? I’m the deputy director of Apple Station. I remember that you have a program with
us.”
“…” Juniper wouldn’t have imagined that this man was someone important. He was right, her most
popular program was shown on Apple Station.
“I’m not going to do anything. I just want to have a drink with you. Are you not going to humor me?”
Juniper hesitated, then nodded. “If you told me earlier, wouldn’t have rejected you. My show would
need your full support. Cheers…”
“Sure.” The man nodded and just drank, nothing else.
“Are you sure you just want to have a drink?”
Juniper looked at the man who remained unmoving and suddenly felt upset. The man looked at her,
surprised, then shook his head, finished his drink, and left.
After walking out of the venue, the man took out his recording device and looked around for Rickard.
However, he was nowhere to be seen.
“Where did he go? I almost had to lose my dignity to get this recording.”
The man sighed and gave Rickard a call, but no one picked up. He thought about it, then put the
recording away. He would just speak to Rickard the next time they met.
