“I’m sorry, I’ve said too much.”
Ariana looked back at Hesper. “1 invited you here to apologize on behalf of Juni. As a bystander, I
know that what she did to you caused you a lot of pain.”
“There’s no need. No one else should apologize for what she did.” Hesper never had much interaction
with Ariana in the past, but when someone older apologized to her, Hesper felt uneasy. “What Juniper
did won’t be forgiven because of a simple sentence. You’re her mother, and I’m a mother too. I can
understand how you feel, but I won’t forgive her. People need to pay for what they did. We’re all adults
after all, don’t you agree?”
Ariana knew that begging Hesper wouldn’t work after hearing what she said, but she knew that if This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Juniper continued doing what she was doing, she would one day make a mistake so big she wouldn’t
be able to turn back.
“Ms. Rivera… can we come up with an agreement?”
Hesper was trying to excuse herself, but when she heard that, she decided to listen. “Go on.”
Ariana sighed, then spoke.
Juniper headed for Carter’s place after leaving home.
Carter was still angry after being kicked out of her home, but Juniper immediately went to see him, so
he calmed down.
“My mom doesn’t know me at all. She asked me to break up with you and I shut her down.”
Juniper looked at his expression and could tell that he was calmer, so she was glad. Even if the whole
world hated her, at least Carter the playboy was still interested in her.
Maybe what she did in the past was terrible, but even though Carter was nowhere close to Rickard, he
was nice to her. He would give her whatever he wanted, even if she asked for the stars.
“My mom was just worried that Hesper would take action against me because that’s just how she is.
Hesper even has the Lanes supporting her, and Rickard seemed to be bewitched by her.” Juniper
looked down and sounded like she was sobbing. “As long as Hesper is still alive, I won’t be able to
convince my mom to accept you.”
She was trying to hint at him to get rid of Hesper. Carter saw that she was pretending to sob, so he
rubbed his temples.
Juniper started feeling anxious when he didn’t say anything.
“Carter, don’t forget that when I agreed to be with you, you promised me something!” Juniper grabbed
his arm. “You need to help me kill Hesper and cause the Duvals to file for bankruptcy. Wouldn’t you be
happy with the collapse of the Duval Group? Why are you hesitating?”
Carter held her hand and smiled. “It isn’t something that can happen overnight. Give me more time.”

Juniper pulled her hand out, but since she was not as strong as him, she just let it be.
“Don’t worry, it’ll happen.” Carter’s voice trailed away. His eyes filled with realization as he lowered his
head and kissed Juniper.
Tve agreed to your request, but you need to hold your side of the agreement too. Do what you
promised.” Hesper pressed her lips together. “I hope what you told me is all true.”
“You’re a good person.” Ariana felt sorry. “I apologize again. None of this would have happened if I did
my part as a mother.”
Hesper shook her head. “Alright, none of that matters anymore. I need to excuse myself because I
have
work to do.”
