Chapter 648
After sending Nathaniel off, Hestia created a new folder on her laptop, called Sylvie, and asked her to
encrypt this folder separately, not allowing anyone to see the contents inside.
Although Sylvie felt a little puzzled, she still agreed and went to do as asked.
After arranging the things on her end, Hestia curled her lips and realized that Benji had not come in for
more than an hour, so she took the initiative to open the door. "Benji Lynch?"
Unexpectedly, Benji did not show up, but another person appeared in front of her out of nowhere.
"Ms. Rivera." Kenji looked at Hestia indifferently and then explained, "Benji has returned to the CEO’s
office. I’ll be in charge of your safety for the rest of your days in Genecity."
Hestia was a little surprised. Benji was a lot softer when dealing with her. So in order to prevent him
from being led directly into a trap by her, Rickard would certainly arrange for someone else to come
and take over his position, which did not seem to be a very unexpected arrangement.
Thinking about this, Hestia nodded casually. "My current name is Hestia, Hestia Deschamps, so stop
calling me Ms. Rivera. And what’s your name?"
"Kenji, Kenji Lynch."
After getting his full name, Hestia immediately took a closer look at him and realized that Kenji and
Benji looked slightly alike. But she did not notice such details at all at the first glance.
Hestia naturally did not think this was just a coincidence.
'It’s probably because I went out of the office and around the company yesterday, which made Rickard Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
feel a little bit more vigilant, so he’s found someone who could watch over me. So it seems Rickard is
only obeying all my requests on the surface, but in fact, he still suspects that my appearance will do
harm to Duval Group.'
"...Pfft, so boring." Hestia turned her head around. "Since you’re here to protect me, then stay in front of
my door and do your job."
"Of course."
The door was slammed shut by Hestia, and Kenji’s eyes narrowed.
‘Even though it was just our first time meeting each other, she’s already formed a general
understanding of me. This shows that she’s undergone similar training.’
‘Her walking posture also doesn’t look like that of an ordinary person, so she’s probably practiced
kickboxing or some kind of martial arts.’
Kenji lowered his gaze.
‘I’m afraid that Hestia Deschamps is a completely different person from the woman who went by the
name of Hesper Rivera. I guess this is why Mr. Duval is wary of her.’
Although Kenji had a fairly good impression of Hesper after listening to Benji’s description of her
before, she might as well be considered a completely different person after suffering from amnesia. If
such a dangerous individual was allowed to stay in Duval Group and by Rickard’s side, she was
practically a ticking time bomb.
The day passed just like that, and Hestia only asked the team that worked directly under her to keep
changing the proposal. Other than that, she did not do anything out of the ordinary. However, Kenji did
not loosen his vigilance.
"Ms. Deschamps, how do you plan to go back at night? Do you need me to send you back?"
Kenji was a humanoid surveillance camera that had been placed by her side by Rickard, so Hestia
originally wanted to refuse his suggestion.
But she nodded as soon as she remembered that she had not shown Rickard the "surprise" that she
had carefully prepared for him. "Okay, then please do send me back."
After Hestia gave Kenji her current address, he was stunned for a split second. "You're living there?"
"Is there a problem?" Hestia asked knowingly. "This is the best residential area in Genecity. I might only
get to stay in Genecity just this once in my lifetime, so why can’t I get myself the best real estate
available?"
Kenji remained silent for a while. "It’s not that you can’t, but that you and Mr. Duval are neighbors. Don’t
you know that?"
