A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 533

Benji shook his head. Since the incident, Daybreak moved out of their base overnight and no one could

find their exact location. There was dead silence on their end, and it was obvious they were just

delaying so Rickard would die of poisoning.

"We have another problem…" Benji said awkwardly. "The young master insists on seeing Mr. Duval.

He's a lot smarter than other children Ms. Rivera has been stirring up a storm recently, so now that

she's back, he has probably guessed that Mr. Duval is back too."

Professor Miles frowned. The offspring of these two brilliant minds could not be dumb. However, there

was no way they could let Renfrew see his father in his current condition.

There was an alert on his phone. Professor Miles looked down at the message from Hesper.

Hesper hadn't been in contact with any of them since her return to Halwanest. The doctor thought that

Hesper had given up on Rickard, but she was asking about his condition now.

[Miles: How else could he be? He's dying.]

Hesper's face fell when she got the message.

Professor Miles told her that Julian knew poisons better than him. Even though there was still time, if

this continued, Professor Miles probably wouldn't be able to develop an antidote.

Even though Hesper hated Rickard, he was poisoned because of her and she didn't want Renfrew to

lose his father. She had to deal with this no matter how reluctant she was.

After hesitating, Hesper typed.

[Hesper: I have something more important to work on. Please tell Rickard when he wakes up.]

[Hesper: Carter and Juniper are acquiring the shares of Duval Group. I don't know how much they have

now, but it couldn't be a small percentage. If Duval Group wants to keep its name, he needs to take

action ASAP.]

Professor Mile's heart dropped when he saw that.

Even though he stayed away from the business world, he could tell that this was severe. Carter and

Juniper were trying to take his life's work from him while he was down. By the time Rickard was saved, NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Duval Group would already be in their hands.

The time that Rickard was awake for the day had passed, so he could only tell him the next day.

The doctor felt that he could trust Benji, so he showed him the message from Hesper.

"Um… How did Ms. Rivera find out about this?" Benji looked grave. "I need to verify it. Please take

good care of Mr. Duval."

As Rickard's right-hand man, Benji knew how many shares Rickard currently held.

It was 43%, which was a lot, but if Carter managed to persuade a few other shareholders to sell their

shares to him, the 43% might not be enough, and that was before taking into account the loose shares

that Juniper acquired in the open market.

If they manage to get all of that, Duval Group would be in danger.

Rickard calmly laid in bed. Professor Miles watched Benji anxiously leave and sighed.

When it rains, it pours. He didn't know if Rickard or Duval Group were going to make it, but he hoped

that nothing more happened. Rickard probably wouldn't be able to handle anything more.

Thinking about that, he sent a message to Hesper.

[Miles: The time that Rickard could stay away is getting shorter, and there's something else that you

need to worry about… No one is taking care of your child.]

Hesper immediately decided to bring Renfrew over.
