Semua Bab A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love: Bab 1431 - Bab 1440

The inside of the ship was what Hesper imagined. It was absolutely luxurious. No one could tell it was a ship by looking at the interior; it looked more like a hotel. Hesper never properly explored a ship like this, so it was new to her. Upon boarding, Hesper felt much better, but it was evident that standing on deck wasn't a waste of time. If she had come in straight away, she would probably have been like a dead fish, like when Nathaniel kidnapped her, but now she had the energy to walk around. Like her, other people were looking around. Not many came from money, so this was the first time they boarded a ship like this. The people in the black market were from all walks of life. Someone watching Hesper scoffed, as she acted like she came from the countryside. Hesper and Kenji turned around and saw a girl dressed from head to toe in luxury brands standing behind them. "Country folk are such a joke, looking as if they're seeing for the first time."Hesper didn't know why tro

Joanna stuck her tongue out playfully and leaned close to Hesper, saying, "You're really beautiful. I've never seen you before. Where are you from?"Joanna was like a puppy or a child; a little unhinged but had that sad puppy look. Even if you were annoyed, you'd still feel sorry for her. "My dad told me to not start anything just because of my family name," Hesper looked around, "So I'm afraid I can't tell you."Some families preferred flying under the radar. Although Dean couldn't tell if Hesper was the type to cause trouble, he thought her reasoning made sense. Joanna believed it. Although Hestia looked pitiful, she couldn't forget what she had seen in Hesper's eyes for that one split second. This woman wasn't an ordinary person, and she wasn't as harmless as she looked. Thinking about that, Joanna turned to look at Dean and had a feeling he had a different view of Hestia, but since this was her first time meeting her, she didn't want to think she was able to read the woma

With the help of the medication and some rest, Hesper quickly recovered, as the dizziness significantly reduced. Kenji followed Hesper's instructions and spied around to find out the black market opened at 8 p.m. and closed at midnight. Those were weird hours, but it was the rules of the black market, so they just followed it. Another interesting thing was that people could hide their identities with masks and hoods. There was a lot that Hesper wanted to do, and since Dean was curiously friendly, she didn't want to bump into him and be unable to shake him off, or her hands would be tied. Thus, Kenji prepared a mask. After putting it on, Hesper was unable to recognize herself in the mirror, especially after she put on a hood too. When they showed up at the black market, countless people were dressed the same way, so there was no way anyone would recognize her. Dinner time was at eight. Hesper and Kenji didn't attract attention as they they blended in with the crowd in the lege

Hesper looked at the young man, intrigued, while Kenji stood behind her like a protector. Hesper knew she was in good condition, so she would be fine even if they had to fight. The young man looked intelligent, so Hesper was willing to listen to what he had to say. With a serious look, the young man said, "The first type are those who want to live longer and try to find a solution here for their problem. The second are those seeking revenge."Interesting; that was true. "Which do you think I am?"The young man's eyes froze briefly, then he looked around. "I'm guessing you're both. You don't look like you're dying soon but looking for medication."Hesper didn't expect him to be spot on. She nodded. "You're right. How about this, if there's anything in the shop that you like, I'll buy it and give it to you.""Ma'am?" Kenji was confused and, for a second, was extra worried for Rickard. Hesper didn't explain herself, but the young man nodded after a second of shock. "I'll just

Kenji was always amazed at how Hesper could lie straight to people's faces, but the man seemed to believe her, so he didn't say anything and just followed along. "It really was unfortunate that you didn't go to the market last night." Dean looked like a kind man who was helping her without her knowing. However, Hesper wasn't born yesterday. She wouldn't rely on him too much just because he acted that way. Dean might not be able to tell, but Kenji could. Dean seemed to think he was doing well and had built a rapport with her. However, in actuality, the person being led around was Dean, not Hesper. It was obvious that she was the one who had a good plan going on. The opening hours of the black market were hours away, so Dean just showed Hesper around the ship. If it was the day before, Hesper might not have accepted this 'kindness,' but when she woke up this morning, she realized her symptoms had reduced significantly, most probably because one of her larger goals had been ac
