“What do you mean there’s no point?” Rickard turned around. The annoyance in his eyes gave Juniper
shivers.
“I mean-”
“It doesn’t matter how long it’s been. She will always be my son’s mother, so I should compensate her. I
didn’t think about that before this, but now that you’ve reminded me, of course I need to do something
about it.”
Rickard turned and walked into his office without giving her a chance to finish her sentence.
Juniper bit her lip and had to agree. “You’re right, I didn’t think of that.”
She followed closely but Rickard stood in front of the glass door and looked at her. “Anything else?”
Juniper smiled awkwardly. She could feel how cold he was toward her, but the colder he was, the more
she wanted to get close to him.
“Rickard, why is Ren with Hesper? Do you plan to get him back? I bought three tickets to the theme
park and was planning to bring him there.”
“Don’t worry about it. Hesper will take good care of him.”
That ended the conversation. Juniper didn’t want to just leave, so she grabbed his arm. “Here’s the
thing, the show that I’m hosting is working on a finance segment and would like to invite a young and
successful business person to be interviewed. If I can’t find someone suitable, could you come
instead?”
Rickard pulled his arm back and took a good look at her. “Juniper, you know how busy I am. If you NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
came to see me just to talk about such a menial thing, you’re wasting my time.”
Juniper’s smile froze, but Rickard ignored her. He turned and walked away with Benji.
After a few seconds, Juniper snapped back and balled up her fists.
Rickard said that this was menial. She was sincerely inviting him, but to him, it wasn’t worth his time.
What would be considered important then? Hesper?
Jealousy brewed in her heart. She was not done yet, so her
expression kept changing. After a while, she seemed to have made up her mind.
She couldn’t let things delay any longer. She had to get him, no matter
what it took!
The next day, Juniper showed up at the station as usual.
She was a very well-known host in the past two years since she was highly educated and was rumored
to be in a relationship with Rickard, a dream. Her colleagues thought of her as a princess.
However, the rumors that popped up recently had tainted her dreamy existence. She walked into the
station and could feel people watching her after she walked past.
The director suddenly called out to her. “Juniper, we’ve found
someone for the business segment interview but the person doesn’t have a lot of time. She can only do
it today, so the interview will be today. Go get ready.”
“That’s sudden.” She had been a host for a few years, so she was good at improvising. Thus, she
nodded. “Alright, I’ll go get ready.”
The business segment would be a live broadcast on the business channel. Juniper sat in front of the
mirror and got her makeup done as she read the script. She looked toward the guest room from the
corner of her eye but no one seemed to be in there.
Who was this person?
Juniper walked to the set filled with curiosity. After a brief opening, it was time for the interview.
Juniper’s eyes grew wide when she saw who showed up. “You?”
Hesper was dressed in a black business suit. She looked like an intelligent urban woman in the crisp
outfit.
