Chapter 494


    When Roberto returned, he found that Hesper was sitting in a wheelchair.


    "What on earth…"


    Hesper stuck her tongue out mischievously. "This is my new mount. I won''t have to walk anymore. Isn''t


    it convenient?"


    Roberto knew that Hesper had injuries on her legs, and she got seriously ill after getting caught in the


    rain, which worsened the injuries. But… why did she not tell him that it had be this severe?


    Seeing Roberto''s increasingly serious expression, Hesper also knew that he really believed it, and


    quickly exined, "Don''t take it seriously. My legs are fine. I was just joking with you."


    "Really?" The frown on Roberto''s forehead did not go away as he signed. "So why are you on a


    wheelchair now? Has your condition be so serious?"


    Hesper shook her head and told him everything that happened recently. His expression rxed when


    he heard that she was receiving treatment. "It''d be great if your leg injury could be cured. You need to


    cooperate well with the doctor."


    "I know. I cherish this opportunity more than anyone else," Hesper said, lowering her head. "The new


    semester is starting. When I finish my studies here, my legs will probably be better… and then I will


    return to my country."


    Roberto was aware of Hesper''s decision for a long time. He knew that she did note here to run


    away from her family. She just wanted to have more choices for herself.


    It was only by experiencing more things in the world that she could handle other things better.


    "Well, I''ll support all your decisions, but you need to remember that I''ll always be here for you whenever


    you need help," Roberto said as he patted Hesper''s shoulder. He changed the topic. "Penn is pretty


    good. Are you really not going to consider him?"


    Hesper lowered her eyes and her heart stirred.


    "Mr. Sanchez, there is one thing I think you were right about. You said that only by leaving the previous


    environment can I see many things more clearly. I think I now have a better answer."


    Roberto did not quite understand what Hesper meant; he saw her waving at him. "I''m going home for


    treatment. You don''t know, but my doctor has a bad temper. If I''mte, he''ll definitely prescribe some


    bitter medicine for me."


    "Is he that fierce?"


    "Hah, you have no idea."

    The mysterious doctor sneezed, rubbed his nose, and continued to carefully examine the X-ray of


    Hesper''s legs.


    After receiving his treatment for some time, the condition of Hesper''s leg had improved significantly,


    and the wheelchair had also reduced the burden on her legs. If things continued like this, she would


    soon be able to undergo surgery.


    The progress was faster than expected, and suddenly there was a rustling sound outside the door. The


    mysterious doctor did not close the door. He thought it was Julian, so he called him in.


    "It''s me…"


    Upon hearing Rickard''s voice, the mysterious doctor looked up and greeted him. "Mr. Duval? Please


    After spending some time with him, the mysterious doctor had realized that Rickard did not have any


    other outrageous requests apart from wanting to cure Hesper''s leg injuries. He was much better than


    the typical capitalist he had imagined, so he greeted him warmly.


    "Did you climb over the wall again?"


    Rickard coughed twice, and the mysterious doctor pointed to the bits of leaves on his cor and sighed.


    "I can''t believe that such a devoted person like you would be one of the Duvals. I thought all the rich

    people in Halwanest were more amorous."


    "Have you been to Halwanest before?"


    Rickard removed the leaves from his cor and saw that the mysterious doctor was looking at him as if


    he were a fool. Then the doctor pointed to his own face and said, "Look at me. Look at my face. Do I


    not look Halwanese to you?"
