Chapter 57
Rickard scoffed and left with Ren.
Sophia started panicking and immediately went to talk to Juniper.
Emperion, Reverie Villa.
Hesper quietly pruned the branches of her rose plant. Three of her assistants followed behind her and held up all kinds of tools. They were all very respectful.
In the past three years, Hesper had become Rachael Lane. Master Lane loved her, and with Matthew’s support, she became an
important person.
When she first came to Emperion, she lived in Reverie Villa. He gifted it to her in the second year she was there and even let her name it.
“Hesper.” Matthew got out of the car behind her and walked over with his assistant, Tanner.
When Hesper saw how the car’s tires almost ran over the rose branches, she frowned. “Matthew, I’ve told you so many times. You can’t drive your car to the garden. You’ll hurt the plants.”

“I’m sorry.” Matthew was nice about it. In the past three years, his relationship with Hesper became like that of actual siblings, and he
was very patient with her.
“I’ve done what you previously asked, but are you sure that you want to go back?”
‘Snip’. Hesper pruned another branch with a cold expression. “Of course. It’s been a long time. It’s time the people who hurt me pay for what they did.” She then paused. “Do you think I shouldn’t take revenge?”
“No.” Matthew thought that it was important to remember. Hesper had gone through a lot of grievances, so he knew that it wouldn’t be unreasonable if she wanted to take revenge.
“Well, if you’ve made up your mind, go ahead. The Lane family and I will back you up.”
Hesper looked thankful. She wouldn’t have had a good life if it wasn’t for Matthew’s support. He treated her exceptionally well even though they weren’t related.
“Matthew … I’ll remember everything that you’ve done for me. If you ever need my help, I’ll always be here for you even if it means I have to sacrifice myself.”
Seeing how touched she was, Matthew waved his hand so that everyone would leave them.
“Hesper, there’s no need for all that. I’ve treated you like my sister for the past three years. Even though I didn’t find my actual sister, I gained another one. I’ll always protect you.”
“Thank you, Matthew.”
There was nothing that Hesper could do to repay him. Matthew never controlled her in any way. Even her name was still kept as Hesper, and she only took on their family name. He told her everything, including his love for his sister.
Sometimes, Hesper wondered what she did to deserve such a great brother.

Rickard will probably get the news. You’ll get to decide what happens with the project. Just come see me whenever you need help.” Matthew paused, then continued. “You’re leaving tomorrow. Will you have dinner with grandpa tonight?”
“Alright, I’ll go change.”
Hesper was planning to do that. Grandpa had treated her so well and taken good care of her. She wanted to go see him before leaving.
After half an hour, they both arrived at their family home.
When Master Lane heard the news, he happily walked out with his cane to welcome them. “You’re here. Come in. Is it hot outside?”
“It’s alright, grandpa. I don’t feel hot.”
Hesper held onto the old man’s arm, and right when she stepped into the living room, the second son of grandpa Lane scoffed.
“How could you, the grandchild, let the old man come to you? Who do you think you are!”
