A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 512

The smirk on Julian’s lips disappeared. He glanced at Hesper, who was lying on the bed with her eyes

tightly shut, and said in a deep voice, "This has nothing to do with you, Master. I know that the Duvals

are very powerful, but I already thought it through before deciding to do this."

"What’s there for you to think about? Hesper and Rickard love each other. Do they really need you to

intervene in their relationship?" Professor Miles snorted coldly. "Don’t do a whole list of things that’ll

only move you and only you at the end of the day."

"You don’t even know how Rickard treated Hesper before. I can’t let her go back to him." Julian

sneered. "As for the antidote, there’s none. Since I wanted to poison Rickard, why would I leave a way

out for him...? He’ll soon die of organ failure. I’ll be watching from the side as he kicks the bucket little

by little. And he’s not going to get the chance to turn things arou—"

His words were cut off, as Professor Miles slapped him across the face.

Julian turned his head to the side from the impact, taken aback. "...Not even you can stop me now,

Master."

Julian licked the blood oozing through the corner of his lips, his gaze looking like that of a caged beast.

"Even if you know that I’m the one who poisoned Rickard Duval, so what? You have no evidence and

no antidote. Not to mention that we’ve lived together for so many years. Would you really have the

heart to watch me go down in flames because of this incident?"

Professor Miles shook his head. Looking at the man standing in front of him, he could not help but feel

as if he had never truly known him.

"Back then, I was willing to take you in because I remember that Julian Zink was a man who begged to

see me and tried every means to get me to be his master in order to get the best treatment for Hesper."

Professor Miles shook his head, staring at the familiar yet unfamiliar man. After a long while, he sighed.

"From now on, you’re no longer my apprentice!"

"Why must you be so stubborn, Professor?" Julian took a look at the time.

‘It stands to reason that the effect of the anesthetics that Hesper is on is already coming to an end. If I

continue blabbering here, I won’t be able to hide the fact that I’ve poisoned Rickard or that he’s on the

verge of death from her.’

Finally, looking back at Hesper, who was lying on the hospital bed in an extremely peaceful state,

Julian strode to the door of the ward. "Master, there’s no way you can stop me. Once I walk through

this door, you and I will no longer have anything to do with each other."

"Get out!" Professor Miles closed his eyes and only opened them when he heard Julian leave. He

sighed after a while. "What a sin."

...

When Rickard opened his eyes again, it was already noon of the next day.

As a humanitarian man, Matthew stayed in his ward all night. When he saw Rickard open his eyes, he

immediately contacted Professor Miles. He frowned after seeing Rickard’s pale face.

Professor Miles, who had been trying to create the antidote in the hospital, came instantly after

receiving Matthew’s call. Although Rickard did not remember what happened the day before, he had

already guessed what was going on as soon as he saw all the people waiting for him to regain

consciousness in front of his bed.

"Anyway, the toxins in your body have been stabilized. Give me some time, and I should be able to

neutralize the poison completely." After going through Rickard’s charts, Professor Miles finally breathed

a sigh of relief, realizing that he had not worked tirelessly in vain. He had found a temporary solution,

which was a medication that could relieve the effect of the poison.

Benji knocked on the door and walked in. When he saw that everyone was there, he paused for a split

second then walked to Rickard’s side. "I’ve looked into this matter. The culprit poisoned you through

one of your meals. As for who’s capable of doing so...”

Rickard did not hesitate to utter the name directly. "It’s Julian."

Benji nodded. "I’ve already asked Professor Miles... He admitted it too."

"Sorry, this is an issue that branched off me." Professor Miles lowered his head. "I'd noticed that

something was wrong with him recently, but I didn’t expect him to secretly poison you... This happened

because of my complete negligence as his teacher."NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
