Chapter 358Chapter 358
After Zoya left, life gradually got back on track.
Rickard had taken Renfrew back to the Duvals. Hesper never once mentioned that she wanted to see
Renfrew ever since the incident, nor did she contact Rickard again. Renfrew was very sensible. and
would video call Hesper every day.
Looking at Renfrew, Hesper could feel that he had become more taciturn as the days went by.
Myriade’s departure was a major blow to him. Rickard found him a new coach after that, and Renfrew
did not reject him. Even with the new teacher, he still showed incredible talent.
*Just understand the situation that you’re in and know when to stop.”
Knowing what happened during this period of time, Matthew only sighed on the other end of the call.
“Rickard is a heartless person. Must you measure just how huge of a role emotions play in his world
through the disappointments that you experience from him over and over again?”
It was rare for Hesper to feel this frustrated, but she had to admit that what Matthew said was
correct.
novelbin‘Deep down in Rickard’s heart, profit will always come first. It’s his natural instinct, and it’ll never be
changed by anyone’s will. Even love won’t cut it in this case.’

going back to Emperion in the near future. There are some things back home that I haven’t gotten my
head around. I’ll leave my work in Genecity to Renee while I’m gone.” “You’re coming back?”
Matthew felt that Hesper’s sudden return to Emperion was a little strange. “What are the things that you
want to get your head around?”
‘There are plenty…
There were too many things that Hesper still did not understand, but the most recent one was Shawn. It
was about his strange attitude toward her.
After what happened with Zoya, Hesper had learned not to judge a book by its cover. People who
looked harmless on the surface might be the ones who were capable of stabbing her from behind.
Hesper had to figure out what the deal was with Shawn.
After she briefed Matthew about her concerns, he pondered for a moment. “Uncle Theo doesn’t go out
very often now. He usually spends time with Grandpa. If you were to deliberately approach him all of a
sudden, you might invoke suspicions. So allow me to recommend someone to you- Uncle Simon.”
Hesper was puzzled. “Uncle Simon? But I’m not very close with him, and… Didn’t he say that he was
about to go abroad soon during Grandpa’s birthday party? I thought he left after the party.”
Ads by PubFuture “That was his original plan, but Grandpa forbade him from leaving. He could only choose one or the
other. Either to get married instantly and then leave Emperion, or to stay back at home and
stay single.” Matthew held himself back from laughing. “It’s impossible for Uncle Simon to want to get
married, so he could only compromise and stay back here for a while.”
“I see…” Matthew responded with a hum and then explained calmly, “Uncle Simon knows that you’re not
Rachael. Except for me, he’s the only one among the Lanes who knows your true identity.”
Hesper was stunned for a moment.
I’ve met Uncle Simon a few times before this, and he’s never shown any flaws at all.”
At that time, Hesper only thought that Uncle Simon was just an easy-going man, so he did not have
much to say about the niece who came out of nowhere. She never thought that he actually knew her
true identity.
“Uncle Simon is different from any ordinary person that you know. He rarely shows interest in anything,
apart from psychology. And in the past…” Matthew paused for a split second before continuing. “He
was in the military back then.”
“What?”
‘But I’ve never felt the slightest hint of military temperament from Uncle Simon… Although, speaking of,
many of the Lanes were in the army back then. Grandpa was originally a soldier, Matthew’s father died
amidst a military mission, and now Uncle Simon, who seems to have nothing to do with the military,
turns out to be an ex-soldier too.”
