    Chapter 123


    Juniper’s pupils constricted, and she finally came to her senses. “It’s you… You’re that medical


    genius?!”


    “How about it? Since you’ve recovered, don’t you think I’m good?” Hesper had a smirk on her face that


    could provoke anyone. Juniper was so exasperated that her expression changed drastically.


    ‘I never would have guessed that the doctor who treated me was that b*tch, Hesper Rivera! And I


    actually paid her such a high reward!’


    After realizing that she had been tricked, Juniper said angrily, “It turns out that you’ve been ying


    tricks on me from the very beginning. Did you force me to take those ck pills on purpose?!”


    “It seems that you’re not as dumb as you look. You’ve got it all figured out.” Hesper sneered, not hiding


    her mockery in the slightest.


    Juniper, already having lost her cool, was about to hit Hesper. “You b*tch! We’ll see if I’ll beat you to


    death right here, right now!”


    “Ms. Wight, are you sure you want to make a move on me right here and now?” Hesper did not even try


    to dodge or evade her strike, showing no signs of fear, sneering instead. “If I were you, I wouldn’t do


    this at the banquet I’m hosting. Aren’t you afraid of bing theughingstock of the people of


    Genecity? Plus, since I’m here, don’t you want to know where exactly Rickard is right


    now?”


    Juniper stopped moving instantly.


    ‘That’s right. If Hesper is here, then where is Rickard? Didn’t Madam Duval say that he was called


    away by Hesper?’


    “Madam Duval, don’t you think you have some exining to do?”


    “Geez, Juni, don’t listen to this b*tch. Why would I lie to you?” Julie quickly exined. “Rickard really


    was called away by her early in the morning, he imed that he was heading to her ce because


    Renfrew wasn’t feeling well. Otherwise, why would Rickard not want toe and see


    you?”


    After being fooled left and right, Juniper had also be suspicious. “Is that so?”


    Hesper tilted her head and scoffed mockingly. “Madam Duval, if I were in your shoes, I would have


    thoroughly done my research first beforeing up with a lie. Are you sure that I called Rickard


    away?”


    “I…” Seeing that she sounded so firm when she made the statement, Julie dared not speak up.


    ‘If she were to somehow prove her statement, wouldn’t my reply turn into another smack in the face


    Now that she knew everyone was taking her for a fool, Juniper could not take it anymore. “Madam


    Duval, where exactly is Rickard?!”


    “Don’t worry, I… I know where he is….” Julie had no choice but to tell the truth.


    Juniper was furious. She gnashed her teeth and red at the mother and daughter. “You keep telling


    me that you’ll find a way to make a match out of the two of us. Is this your way of making things work?”


    Frightened by her rage, Julie subconsciously took two steps backward.


    Sophia, unable to stand it anymore, stepped forward to defend themselves. “Juni, how can you be so


    rude to my mother? She had good intention, didn’t she? If my brother doesn’t want toe, we can’t


    just tie him up and force him toe. She only lied to you because she didn’t want to hurt. your


    feelings.”


    “Good intentions? Do you really think I’m dumb?” Juniper had had enough.


    ‘When I was hurt and disfigured, the two of them only came by once, and now they’re trying to deceive


    me? They’ve never thought of me as family!’


    Seeing that the atmosphere was bing more and more stalemate, Hesper, who had been watching

    from the sidelines all along, shouted out of the blue, “Oh my God, no, the youngdy of the Duvals and


    Ms. Wight are fighting each other! Madam Duval even got beaten too!”


    With this sudden wail, all the people at the banquet were startled and rushed over in unison. Hesper


    took the opportunity to leave the scene, letting them go at each other!
