A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love
Chapter 382

Chapter 382

At midnight.

The room was in a chaotic mess, and Juniper was sitting in Carter's arms, caressing his neck with her fingertip.

"It seems that your mother likes me very much. She even kept me at your place today." Juniper sounded a little proud and moved even closer to Carter, "Are we going to get married soon? Congratulations, you've finally acquired me."

"Oh, really?" Carter smirked. "Baby, my mother might like you very much, but your mother doesn't like me at all, so you might have to wait for a little longer."

Juniper remained silent for a while. She had not gone back to the Wight Manor all this time. Her mother had been calling her every day, but she had not picked up any one of those calls. She did not know if she was being unfilial, but she could not accept that her mother was trying to stop her from being with Carter.

She could not understand why her mother would stop her when she had finally listened to her advice and given up on Rickard.

'Carter treats me so well. It may not be common for a p*ayboy to turn his life around, but it isn't impossible. At first, I only compromised because of that night, but after seeing how kind Carter is, I feel like I was truly blind for loving Rickard back then.'

"I'll definitely find a way. And if my mother still doesn't agree, we'll get married in secret."

"Ah-"

Carter was a little surprised. He then lowered his head, kissed Juniper, and chuckled as the night was filled with a hint of intimacy.

"I love you, baby."

As the end of the winter approached, people could finally leave their workload aside for a few days.

Hesper sent Roberto to the airport. He gave her his address in Fredonia before he boarded the plane, looking forward to seeing her next time.

Because she had already returned to Emperion during New Year's Eve, Hesper did not plan to go back again during spring break. Firstly, it was troublesome to go back and forth in such a short time, and secondly, she was not in the mood to travel.

A call suddenly came in at that moment.

Hesper picked the call up and the other party instantly exclaimed in a playful voice, "Taadaa! Guess who?"

Hesper was at a loss for words for a split second and took a glance at the location of the caller. It came all the way from Emperion, so she could not help but feel a little helpless. "Is this Dianth?"

"Oh my God, Hesper, you're so smart!" Dianthe laughed. "So, why aren't you asking me questions? Like how did I get your cell phone number? Why did I call you? Why don't you feel curious at all?" Hesper wasn't a very curious person, but it was way too easy for Dianthe to get her hands on her cell phone number, so there was nothing to be curious about.

"Are you coming to Genecity soon?"

Dianthe was surprised. "Did Nathaniel tell you that? You couldn't have guessed it yourself!"

Hesper was speechless.

"It's just a simple guess. And although Dianthe was very enthusiastic when we met at the banquet, we're not so close that there's a need for her to take the initiative to give me a call when she's coming over. After all, we've only met each other once.

'As for the relationship between Rachael and Dianthe... It doesn't seem that they were that close

back then.'

"Alright, alright, you've guessed it correctly." Dianthe s*ipped the previous topic and complained coquettishly, "Staying at home all day is so boring, and I'm about to die of boredom. Since spring break is just around the corner, I've decided to go out on a trip and take a look at the world outside of Emperion."

Hesper felt that it was impossible for Dianthe to leave her alone this time around, so she had no choice but to ask, "Are you saying that you want to come visit my place?"

"You're the one who suggested it. I didn't ask you to take me in during my trip to Genecity." Dianthe chuckled twice. "Geez, I'm so smart. As long as I say that I'm going there to see you, my parents will be more than happy to let me off. I think they'll even tie a bow around my neck and send me over instantly."

Hesper was astonished by what Dianthe had to say.
