"Okay." Hesper grinned. However, despite how good it looked on her face, her smile looked fake. "Then
I'll start working on my draft, Mr. Lynch. I don't think you'll need my help with company matters, right?"
"No, I don't," Benji said through gritted teeth.
Renee sighed helplessly. It was evident that Hesper was teasing Benji, but she found it ridiculous how
Benji fell for it despite being smart most of the time.
"Alright, I'll excuse myself now." Benji turned around. After receiving Hesper's instruction, Renee went
out as well.
Although Benji was very familiar with the company's affairs, it would still be somewhat difficult for him to
handle everything alone. Luckily, Hesper's studio had just started, so she and Jessie were enough to
handle things over there even if Renee was not around.
Hesper lowered her head and looked at her draft for a moment in silence.
She had not even started designing for Elise, Rickard was currently on his deathbed, and she had yet
to solve the matter regarding Juniper, so she could not possibly go back to Fredonia for the time being.
She could only finish things ahead of time there and figure out a solution later. With that thought in
mind, she had a bit of a headache. She hoped that Juniper would act quickly so that she could resolve
things early on as well.

Meanwhile, Juniper had been in a slump at home for several days. Carter disappeared without a word
for a few days, probably fooling around with some young lover. Juniper could not be bothered to care.
Her mother's betrayal was something she never expected. It was a completely unforeseen event that
dealt a heavy blow to her. Since she was young, she had relied on her mother, who was her only
support. She never thought that her mother would one day abandon or betray her.
It was all because of Hesper. She was the one who took everything from her. Juniper hated her to the
bone.
"I'll make you pay, Hesper. For everything you did to me, I'll make you pay!"
Juniper hysterically swept everything off the table and looked at her distorted reflection in the mirror.
Sometimes, she did not understand how she had become like this.
But now that she had come so far, there was no turning back anymore. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
With this thought in mind, Juniper reached out and smashed the mirror in front of her. Her right hand
was already bloody and mangled, but she did not care. In the shattered pieces of the mirror, her face
looked even more distorted.
'Hesper... Don't you cherish your child the most? Aren't you trying to drive a wedge between me and
my mother...? Well, I'll make you feel the pain of losing a child. Just you wait!'
Juniper sneered and closed her eyes while taking a few deep breaths.
'You made me do this.'
