Chapter 453
However, as soon as both of them left, Rickard opened the door. He watched their receding figures and
sighed helplessly. Although he was very confident that there was nothing between Hesper and
Pennleigh, he could see that Pennleigh had a thing on Hesper.
''He''s such an eyesore.''

Hesper felt more rxed after leaving Isobe and Rickard.
"Are you sure you don''t want to go to the hospital?" Pennleigh asked as he looked at her somewhat
relieved face. "Did something happen against night? Did Rickard… Did hee to look for you?"
What happened wasplicated. Hesper cleared her throat and replied, "Actually, nothing happened
might''ve misunderstood him."
Pennleigh could sense the hint of hesitation in Hesper''s voice. He did not know the past between
Hesper and Rickard, but he knew that they were divorced and they had a son.
After hearing what she said, he asked tentatively, "Then will you reconcile with him after realizing that
you''ve misunderstood him?"
Pennleigh was never someone who would poke his nose into other people''s affairs. Hesper felt it was
strange for him to ask a question like this, but she still replied resolutely, "Of course, I will not. Rickard
and I have more than a few problems and misunderstandings… We can never get back together
again."
Having been together for over half a year, so Pennleigh considered himself quite adept at discerning

instrumental music in the car and drifted off into a dreamlike state, where she saw some strange and
vivid images.
This time it was not a fragment that she would forget upon waking up. Hesper seemed to see her
younger self standing among a group of people, surrounded by adults who were all wishing her a
happy birthday as the candles were being blown out.
This dream was too real and warm. Hesper could not help but rub against the seat and a tear rolled
down the corner of her eyes.

Rickard naturally got more details after he got Hesper''s information.
Looking at the ordinary face on Hesper''s ID, Rickard did not know how she did it, but he had already
figured out why Matthew could not find Hesper after so long.
Not only did Hesper go off the grid, but she also changed her appearance. Apparently, she did not want
Matthew to get even the slightest bit of information about her.
Even though he found Hesper, Rickard did not tell anyone about it. After learning that Pennleigh was
her superior now, he became even calmer.
If there was really something going on between Hesper and Pennleigh, with Hesper''s headstrong
personality, he was certain that she would never continue working in Pennleigh''s studio.

Rickard thought about it for a while. Hesper was currently living in Roberto''s house, so if there were
any changes in the surrounding property rights, Roberto would definitely inform her.
This was because this area was well-known for its security. Rickard spected that Hesper might be
avoiding someone who could harm her, so she would be extra cautious of those around her.
