    Chapter 149


    Rickard received a call from Juniper out of the blue.


    Remembering what she had done to Hesper back then, he could not figure out what she wanted, so he


    remained silent, wanting to hear what she had to say.


    Sensing Rickard’s silence, Juniper did not care and continued. “After being homebound for some time,


    I’ve already realized my mistakes. I heard that Sophia encountered an ident some time ago, and


    I’ve always had a close rtionship with her. So can I go to your ce to visit her?”


    “You don’t have to tell me about such agendas of yours.” Rickard’s voice was tinged with slight


    indifference. “Didn’t you two discuss plenty of things in private quite frequently in the past? So why


    learn how to behave now?”


    “…”


    Before Juniper could speak, Rickard hung up the phone, not giving her an opportunity to exin

    herself.


    Rickard’s attitude sounded even more indifferent than ever before, and Juniper knew how much


    Hesper yed in this without even having to think about it.


    ‘I think Rickard really likes Hesper now!’


    Realizing this, Juniper gritted her mrs so vigorously that they were about to crush each other.


    ‘Rickard must not be allowed to fall in love with Hesper! Her current identity is already different from


    before. If Rickard were to fall in love with her and look into all the incidents that happened back then,


    that might be it for me!’


    Juniper took her phone out, hesitated for a while, and finally visited a website that had been


    bookmarked for a long time, though she had never visited it before.


    Memory: I need someone to kill a person in Genecity. DM me for the details.


    Hesper’s work in Genecity had gradually been implemented, phase after phase. She had also


    participated in many banquets organized by the upper ss recently. Probably because everyone knew


    about her embarrassing rtionship with Rickard, those people who wanted to curry favor with the


    Lanes were wise enough to not invite Rickard.


    Overall, all the banquets could be considered pleasant.

    Some of the Lanes were still waiting to see Hesper embarrass herself. After all, finding a foothold and


    securing a market for the branch office in Genecity were not easy tasks. But Hesper managed to


    aplish them so quickly that it was unbelievable.


    When Wilfred made the suggestion back then, he originally wanted to only make things difficult. for


    Hesper, but he never thought that such a young woman would do a good job.


    With this, Arthur now valued Hesper even more, and all of Genecity’s projects had already been


    assigned to Hesper.


    “Alright…” Hesper rubbed the bridge of her nose tiredly. Several hours of continuous work and video


    conferencing had overloaded her body. “Do you guys still have anything else to say? If not, we’ll


    dismiss the room here.”


    Naturally, Wilfred would not let go of this opportunity, and said, “I have something to say.”


    Hesper was not surprised. This uncle of the Lanes had not shown her any mercy ever since she


    became part of the family, so she knew he must be up to something.


    “Do speak up.”


    Wilfred knew that Hesper would surely let him talk, so he stood up in front of everyone and asked,”


    Everyone should know about the earthquake that took ce in Salt City yesterday, right?”


    Salt City was a small county located not far away from Genecity. Hesper did read the news about the


    earthquake, but she could not think of what Wilfred was going to say in just a second.


    “Lane Holdings has just settled down here in Genecity, so the people of Genecity and the surrounding


    counties still don’t have much faith in us. So, if ourpany can lend the local government a helping


    hand this time around, then our reputation in this area will definitely rise rapidly.”
