Chapter 1119

Hesper and Ranfik had messed up the grand banquet that the Mustafas had set up for Ranfik to select a wife, so everyone was a little puzzled. They did not realize that they had become the pawns on Ranfik and Hesper’s chessboard. Delphine was even more at a loss. ‘I haven’t even said or done anything, yet we’ve already arrived at the end of the party?’ Hesper closed into Rickard’s ear and whispered, "Something seems unusual with Ranfik." Rickard could not help but feel a little helpless, as he did not know what to say about Hesper. ‘She’s attracted the attention of countless men over the years, yet she still can’t get her head around it.’ "Let’s go back now. We’ll talk about it later. At least everything is on the right track now." Rickard did not go deep with the conversation, but Hesper still thought it made sense and nodded. This banquet had made Hesper famous among all the residents of Leafdelle Island. Although some people still questioned the authenticity of Hesper’s promises, most of them yearned for recovery. Now that there was hope in living, even if it was false, why not give it a try? Hesper had known that many people might need this drug, but she had underestimated just how many there would be among the first batch. Even if she were to forgo breaks and only focused on producing the drug all by herself for a week, she would still not be able to supply it to everyone. Fortunately, Shun had thought of this situation beforehand and asked some doctors who had been working with the Rikihisas to come over and lend a helping hand. Hesper actually did not fear sharing the prescription with others. After all, although she wanted to make money through the drug, she still had to uphold Professor Miles’s attitude when it came to medicine, which, as a doctor, was to always remain respectful toward life. But in the situation that she was currently in, if the prescription was exposed at this moment, all her previous efforts would probably be in vain. After thinking about it, Hesper finally decided to mix all the medicinal ingredients and crush those that she could by herself, so even if these people wanted to analyze her ingredients, they could not do it. After doing all this, although she had received help from a group of doctors, she was still fully occupied all day. Being Ranfik’s fiancée, Camille had been blatantly borrowed and brought out of the Savatiers for a day. Fortunately, as an elder, Juliette was by her side all day, so Ranfik would not dare to do anything. Both parties were kept busy all day, and when they finally got together that night, all of them looked a little tired. "Here, have a sip of water." Rickard handed Hesper a glass of warm water. The other two cast their gazes at the couple from the side. Clearing her throat, Hesper took a couple of sips, put the glass down, and looked at Camille. "How were things today?" Camille shook her head silently. "I didn’t even get to meet Ranfik. He asked his men to bring me to the mall and buy me a lot of things." Speaking of which, Camille paused for a split second. "He bought me so much, like mountains of gifts. I would just glance at something, and his men would instantly pay for it. Even I don’t act this quickly when I’m purchasing goods for the company." As they were speaking, all those items were being sent to the Savatiers’ estate one after another. Camille had never faced any form of financial difficulty when she was living outside of the island, but after experiencing Ranfik’s generosity, she could not help but feel overwhelmed. ‘It’s no wonder Brigette was able to provide us with so much money all at once back then.’ "Never let capitalism get the better of you. You’re destined to lose as soon as you get tempted by capitalism," Sherese reminded Camille from the side. Camille refused to admit that there had been a moment when she felt tempted deep down. She immediately cleared her throat twice. "Anyway, I still don’t understand why Ranfik would splurge so much money on me."
