Chapter 657


    Hestia had heard of the name before. As far as she could recall, Zikmund was a friend of Rickard''s.


    However, she had not yet had the chance to meet him since returning to Genecity, so she did not know


    him well.


    When Vivienne heard the name, she scoffed. "I see. So you''re going to marry Zikmund. It''s hard to


    believe that he still has the nerve to go through with a marriage, considering what a terrible person he


    is. He''s even worse than Carter. All of thedies and socialites in Genecity steer clear of him as if he''s


    a disease."


    "I was in contact with Zikmund way before you left, Hessy. He''s a student of my mother''s, and I told you


    about our first blind date. I don''t think you remember it now, but it was definitely not a pleasant


    experience," Jessie sighed and continued. "At that time, I wanted to marry someone who didn''t love me


    just to deal with my family''s problems, while Zikmund needed a tool to deal with his grandfather.


    Therefore, we coborated on this matter."


    Although Hestia could not personally rte to Jessie''s situation, she could envision feeling angry if one


    of her close friends married someone unworthy just to appease their parents.


    However, Hestia was confident that there must be a lot more to Jessie''s story. Otherwise, things would


    not escte to this point, so she pressed on, "So why did you want to escape from Zikmund?"


    Jessie lowered her head. Vivienne and Cheney looked at each other and came out of the room, leaving


    Jessie and Hestia alone to talk to each other.


    "Because neither Zikmund nor I followed our initial agreement. I developed feelings for him, while he


    fell in love with someone else," Jessie said as she clenched her fist. "If he had openly regretted the


    marriage, I would have let him go. But now he wants me to marry him to lie to his grandfather so that

    he can be with that woman."


    Hestia saw the light now. Long story short, Jessie did not want to marry someone she loved but did not


    love her back. Marriage was like a tomb, and Hesper had already experienced it. Hestia didn''t like


    marriage either, so she patted Jessie''s shoulder and said, "As long as you''re with me, Zikmund won''t


    catch you."


    Jessie looked gratefully at Hestia and said, "You''re different from before but also very simr. If it was


    Hesper, she would have helped me too."


    No one had ever said that she was simr to Hesper before. Hestia smiled, "My name is Hestia


    Deschamps. You can still call me that until my memories are fully restored."


    "Okay."


    After wandering outside for so long, Jessie only truly rxed after seeing Hesper again. The past few


    days were not as easy as she described, and Zikmund went to great lengths to bring her back. If it


    weren''t for the fact that her mother was his teacher, he probably would have gone to her house to find


    her.


    Jessie soon curled up on the sofa and fell asleep. Hestia covered her with a nket and then thought


    for a moment, ''Zikmund is a friend of Rickard, and I can feel that Rickard still has feelings for me. If I


    approach him now, maybe I can help Jessie get rid of this trouble.''


    Today''s trip was not in vain. She had not only obtained information about her target but also gained a


    friend. Hestia walked out of the room and realized that Cheney had been waiting at the door. Upon


    seeing her, Cheney said, "Ms Deschamps, you cane here often in the future. The information we


    can provide may exceed your imagination."


    Hestia raised her eyebrows. After all, it seemed to her that Cheney did not like her getting close to


    Vivienne.
