‘What a pity.’
Hesper remembered the name of the designer who just got eliminated.
‘Celine Campbell. No matter how you look at her, she looks very ordinary. However, she has the talent
to surpass any other designer.”
“I wonder if she’ll participate in Lane Holdings’ tournament this time around…”
Hesper hoped that Celine could get over the disappointment of her elimination, but she was also forced
to empathize with her at the same time.
‘Although the production team did not capture it on camera, I can totally imagine just how many
grievances Celine suffered during the whole competition organized by Duval Group. Apart from
Michelle sabotaging her both explicitly and covertly, the works that she produced and felt satisfied with
were rejected one after another. The production team was just trying to kill her love for design in the
crib.’
“Forget it…” Hesper shook her head, disposing of all these thoughts in her head.
‘As long as she really likes design, I believe that she’ll definitely participate in our competition! The
opportunity is rare, and everyone should understand this.”
Hesper originally thought that Matthew would return to Emperion after securing the contract. However,
Matthew still did not show any intention of leaving after the contract had been signed three to four days
ago. On the contrary, he mobilized every single man that he could get his hands on and refurbished the
whole apartment while she was away at school.
Hesper had a weird premonition, and only God knew just how much she wanted to find out what she
had said to Matthew when she got drunk the other day.
‘Why does it feel like Matthew is planning to move and stay here for a long time?!’
“Matt, I don’t think…” As she saw Isaac move a new bed into the guest bedroom, Hesper tried to
protest.” I don’t think this is a good idea. Don’t you still have a position to uphold and work to do in
Emperion? And what about Grandpa? He’s too old and needs someone to constantly take care of him,
doesn’t he? And Isaac Lennon, just who exactly do you work for? Why are you moving the bed for
him?!”
Hearing Hesper’s complaint, as soon as Isaac placed the bed in a suitable position, he lifted his head
in embarrassment. “About that… Before I started working for you, I was indeed the young master’s
bodyguard.”
“You… Traitor!”
Matthew measured the space that he had reserved for the bookcase with his naked eyes, jerked the
chattering little girl behind him, and pulled her aside. “Don’t delay my schedule here. Go and play
somewhere else.”
Hesper was taken aback by what he had to say. She curled her lips and complained with extreme
dissatisfaction, “But this is my apartment.”
“Oh?” Matthew finally turned around and glanced at Hesper. “No way, are you telling me that you’re
planning to kick your brother out of your apartment?”
Of course, Hesper gnashed her teeth and claimed that she would not do so, then witnessed from the
side as pieces of furniture were moved in one by one. At the end of the day, Matthew’s furniture almost
filled up every available corner of the guest bedroom, which now looked even more exaggerated than
her master bedroom.
I’ll work here. Don’t worry, I won’t fight you for the study,” Matthew explained solemnly, but Hesper felt
that he was deliberately showing off.
It was as if he was provoking her by saying, “Look, I’ve moved in, and what can you do about it?”
Seeing that Matthew really did not intend to leave any time soon, Hesper could not help but feel a little
troubled.
‘Leaving everything else aside for now, when Matt meets Rickard when he comes over this weekend,
it’ll instantly become the most difficult and problematic issue that I’ll ever have to tackle in my life. The
scene would look no worse than a World War Four battlezone.’ This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Hesper shook her head.
‘Crap, I have to find a way to prevent Matthew from knowing that I’m going to meet Rickard on Sunday.
There won’t be any problems as long as the two of them don’t see each other!’
“What’s wrong? What are you thinking about?”
