Seeing as Nathaniel had hurried over, Matthew said calmly, “I didn’t call you to have you rush over. I
already told you, Hesper is fine.”
“How could I not?”
Looking at Hesper’s questioning gaze, Nathaniel walked over with his brows still furrowed. “Have you
caught the culprit?”
“We haven’t caught him, and we don’t have any leads either,” Hesper voluntarily replied, then pointed
out, “Your tie is crooked.”
Nathaniel lowered his gaze when he heard those words. Sure enough, he saw that his tie was messy.
He smiled helplessly. “Nobody has time to worry about stuff like that right now. How are you feeling?
You didn’t get hurt, did you?”
Seeing everyone worrying about her, Hesper shook her head. “Don’t worry, I’m completely fine.”
Matthew patted Nathaniel’s shoulder. “Let Hesper have some rest. She’s had a long night, Ren…”
When Renfrew heard Matthew say his name, he immediately clung onto Hesper’s hand. “I wanna be
with Mommy tonight. I’m not going home.”
“Ren.”
The hospital was hardly a fun place to be, and he certainly would not rest as well there compared to his
own bed at home. Hesper was just about to disagree when she suddenly felt Renfrew’s grip on her
hand tighten.
“I’m not going home.”
Seeing the determination in Renfrew, Hesper had no choice but to nod. “Okay… Matt, Nathaniel, you
two should probably get going. I really am fine. Having Ren here with me is enough.”
Matthew nodded without further protest. “Have a good night’s rest. I’ll come back tomorrow morning.”
“Will do.”
After the two of them stepped out of the ward, Hesper turned to her side, leaving half the bed empty for
Renfrew.
“Come on up. You can sleep with Mommy.”
“Okay!” Renfrew climbed onto the bed and buried himself in Hesper’s arms. His sudden embrace
surprised Hesper. She patted him on the back to comfort him. “It’s okay, sweetheart… Mommy’s here
now.”
Renfrew sobbed softly. “I was so scared…”
He was truly terrified. He was afraid that the mommy he had finally found would disappear for good and
never return… He had endured that fear for far too long. He never wanted to lose her again.
“Don’t be scared, Mommy’s here.”
Renfrew’s sobs eventually subsided. Hesper sighed softly and tightly enveloped Renfrew in her arms.
Feeling the warmth of his body made her finally feel like she was back in the real world.
One moment late and she would have been gone forever.
Although, what had happened that night left her in a bout of confusion. Hesper still recalled a couple of NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
important details of the night, such as the orange scent on that man’s body. It was a scent vividly
seared into Hesper’s mind. If she ever got a whiff of that scent again, she would certainly recognize it.
Apart from that, the man likely did not attack her simply because Juniper had hired him to do so.
Juniper may have been nothing but a cover for him. She was naively used while thinking she called the
shots.
The man knew her far too well. Regardless of whether he had left of his own volition or because of a
sudden mishap, Hesper believed this would not be his last strike.
As long as she was still alive, that man was bound to come after her again. That psycho would not rest
until her body turned cold.
