Hesper didn’t overthink it. When she suddenly got a call from Nathaniel, she was genuinely happy.
“Didn’t you go to Centrelest for training? I thought you’d be gone for a long time.”
Nathaniel’s laughter could be heard from the other end. “Yes, I thought it would be long before I
contacted you again, but I heard your brother say that you were on your way to take revenge by
yourself. How’s the progress?”
Nathaniel was Matthew’s best friend, heir to the Tucker family, one of the four most affluent families in
Emperion. He was an arrogant man but became friends with Hesper after an accident.
“It’s alright. Everything is as planned for now.”
Nathaniel asked, “Are you sure you don’t need my help? Why do you need to go through so much
h*ssle?”
“I really don’t.” Hesper smiled. “Revenge is sweeter when I do it myself. Seeing them getting destroyed,
isn’t it exciting?”
“You’re full of ideas.” Nathaniel smiled and didn’t say more.
With them around, if anyone dared hurt Hesper, he wouldn’t let them get away with anything.
“When will I get to see your son then? I keep hearing about him, but I haven’t met him yet. I’m very
curious.”
“Soon, I guess.” Her eyes turned gentle when Ren was brought up.
Her arrangements were correct. Rickard would be in trouble soon, so he wouldn’t have time to care for
the child. She would have the chance to bring Renfrew home and show him off.
After chatting for a few more minutes, Nathaniel advised her, “Hesper, do whatever you want and just
take care of yourself, alright?”
“Alright, you too. The situation in Cetrelest seems to be complicated, so be careful.”
After hanging up, Hesper glanced at the time and it was twelve, midnight. Someone would be losing
their
mind in a few hours.
When she realized that, she knew she would be having a good night’s sleep.
The next day.
Juniper woke up at eight in the morning as usual. She would be getting ready to go to the station, but
now that she was suspended, her habit still remained.
She yawned and saw the cleaner who was polite. “Good morning Ms. Wight- Ah! What happened to
your face?”
The second half of the sentence turned into a scream. Juniper’s expression changed as she felt around
her face. “What’s wrong with my face?”
She didn’t feel anything odd because it still felt smooth like a freshly peeled egg, but the cleaner’s eyes
were wide open.
Juniper immediately ran back to her room and looked into the mirror, then almost fainted.
Her features were still the same, but her skin had turned as black as coal. It wasn’t tanned, it was
black, like something that wasn’t properly washed.
“How did this happen!” Juniper couldn’t take the shock and fainted but was saved by a helper who Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
rushed
over.
“Let’s go to the hospital. The doctors might know what to do.”
“Yes, to the hospital. Get the driver!”
On the way there, Juniper remembered what Hesper gave her yesterday. She said it would make her
ugly, and it really did!
Thinking of Hesper, Juniper started grinding her teeth and immediately called Sophia. “Soph, help me. I
was tricked by Hesper last night. Please get to the hospital immediately!”
“I can’t…” Rickard was very angry, so Sohpia didn’t dare do anything. “My brother heard the recordings
she left and found out about everything. He lost his temper yesterday and ordered us to stop speaking
to you. Juni, I’m afraid you’re on your own.”
“What? Hello? Hello?”
