A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 693

Hestia furrowed her brows and lowered her head as she instructed Jessie to fast-forward the video. As

Jessie did so, they heard a part where she mentioned her "elder brother." It confounded Jessie, as she

did not know what Hestia was trying to say, so she looked at her quizzically.

Hestia turned her head sideways and there was a stern expression on her face. "Do you know who © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Julian is?" she asked.

"Julian?" Jessie had never heard of such a person before, so she shook her head blankly. "Do you still

remember him? But you said you don't remember anything. I'm not familiar with him, so I suppose he

wasn't a close acquaintance of yours."

Upon hearing Jessie's words, Hestia shook her head hesitantly. "It's not that I still remember him. It's

just that I do know someone named Julian."

"What?"

Hestia furrowed her eyebrows. Julian was a collaborator on her father's new project, specializing in

medicine. Whenever he visited the house for business discussions, he always brought gifts for Hestia.

Thus, she was somewhat familiar with Julian and would consult him when she had questions related to

medicine.

'Perhaps there are two Julians in this world? But what are the odds that there are two people of the

same name around her? Besides, Julian isn't a very common name.'

"Is it possible that he knew that you were Hesper all along and only cooperated with your father to get

closer to you?" Jessie said as she nodded at her speculation. "Here, listen to this. You said that Rickard

was jealous of Julian. So what does it tell you?"

"It tells me that Rickard is a petty-minded person who has too much time on his hands," Hestia replied.

Jessie smacked her hand indignantly and said, "We're not discussing Rickard and the bad things he

did in the past! This means that Rickard thinks Julian has a thing for you, and he probably is right about

it!"

Although Hestia could not discern any necessary connection between these things, Jessie looked very

serious, so she did not interrupt her.

Maybe because Hestia was not that naive and felt that coincidences could only be linked to

conspiracies, but she focused her attention and tried to recall the information she had seen before.

However, it seemed that there was no mention of Julian in the information.

Was it just a coincidence, or was someone pulling the strings from behind?

Hestia suddenly remembered that she had realized this problem before. Why did the Deschamps

network, which they took pride in, suddenly fail to work in Halwanest? Now that she thought about it,

was it because the Deschamps could not get any information about these secrets, or… Someone was

trying to confuse her?

Jessie thought that she had analyzed everything very well, but when she turned her head, she saw that

Hestia had already sunk into contemplation. Therefore, she stopped and looked at Hestia's serious

expression, asking, "Do you think it's a conspiracy?"

Upon hearing Jessie's voice, Hestia snapped out of her thoughts and nodded. "I'm not very sure yet.

First, we need to confirm whether the Julian that Hesper knows is the same as the one I know."

"But who knows what the Julian you knew before looked like..."

As Jessie was talking, she raised her head and met Hestia's eyes. Both of them could see the answer

in each other's eyes.

"Rickard!"

Meanwhile, Rickard sneezed in his office.

Whenever Benji saw Rickard now, he would think of Hestia's complaints about him during their trip the

night before, and he could not help but want to laugh. However, he tried her best to hold it in to keep

his job.
