Chapter 600Sophia had already given up on resisting and was prepared to do whatever it took to avoid Hesper. So,
when she was presented with the opportunity to leave Genecity, she eagerly agreed and tugged at her
mother’s sleeve, urging her to refrain from speaking further.
However, there was no way Julie was going to accept it. She was so close to achieving wealth and
glory. If she left Genecity at this point, even with the monthly allowance Rickard would provide, it
wouldn’t compare to what they were currently enjoying.
Once Rickard made up his mind, he was not going to alter his decision.
“Since you both used to be addicted to gambling, I won’t give you too much of a living allowance per
month,” Rickard said, shattering Julie’s illusion. “I’ll give you approximately $1,500 per month. It should
be sufficient for both of you.”
“What?!” Julie stood up abruptly, exclaiming in disbelief. “$1,500 is barely enough to cover a few meals!
Are you planning to let us starve to death?!”
It would be better to kill them than let them live like that!
“I’ll give you $1,500 per month. Take it, or leave it,” Rickard reiterated, calmly standing his ground. He

return the $450,000 that you owe.”
“Alright. Let’s do as Rickard says.” Ernest, who had been silent all this time, broke the deadlock and
spoke calmly. “I know about everything that happened in the past. Hesper was mistreated, and there
was nothing I could do to help her. However, it seems to me that neither of you have learned your
lesson despite everything, so I have the responsibility too.”Hesper was initially happy to witness the Duvals fighting each other, but Ernest had shown unwavering
support towards her, making her feel bad. She hugged Ernest and said, “I know that you love me the
most, Grandpa. You didn’t do anything wrong at all.”
Ernest patted her hand, and Rickard nodded in agreement.
Sophia and Julie were taken away, leaving only Rickard, Ernest, and a teary-eyed Hesper in the living
room. She suddenly felt an unreal sensation, as she found it hard to believe that Sophia and Julie had
been taken care of. She realized that she may never see them flaunt their power in front of her again,
but for some reason, Hesper did not feel as happy as she imagined.
It felt like a recently healed wound, so she felt exhausted and aggrieved.

her gentle eyes. “You haven’t been home in so long. Let’s have a good meal at home.”

Meanwhile, Matthew was in the study room sorting out the contracts that Hesper needed. He had been
busy looking for a suitable bone marrow donor for Renfrew during this period and only had time to
novelbinreturn to the mansion that day.
After ascertaining that he had all the contracts, Matthew lowered his head. Just when he was about to
put them into a brown paper bag, a photo fell out of a folder.
The photo seemed aged since its back had turned yellow.
Matthew frowned and squatted down to pick it up, flipping it over to the front. It was a picture of two
people standing side by side. Then Matthew was stunned, and he looked at the photo more closely.He recognized one person in the photo as Benjamin. When his parents passed away, Mattew was still
very young and had no impression of them. However, there were still many photos of Benjamin in the
house, so Matthew was able to recognize him immediately. There was also a woman standing next to
him in the photo. Her eyebrows were curved and she was smiling. She was a beautiful, gentle-looking
woman.
Most importantly, she looked a lot like Hesper!
“How is this possible?”
