A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 184

Chapter 184 

Hesper was aware of Professor Jenkins’s eccentric behaviors, but she still could not bear being hit by his 

wrath. 

“Uh, looks like it’s already time for me to get to one of my classes. I’ll be going now.” 

Jessie gave Hesper a ‘good luck’ expression then quickly escaped the room. 

‘Is she kidding me?! Doesn’t she know about my father when it comes to giving someone a good talking. to? I was only standing by the side back there and it felt like I was the one who was being scolded, not to mention that he hasn’t even gone off the charts just yet. If Dad loses his chill and starts to rain fire and brimstone, I might not even be able to leave his office!” 

“Please accept my apologies, Professor Jenkins.” 

Xavier sneered, lowered his head, and took a sip of tea. “I thought I’d be surrounded by my children and grandchildren the next time I got to see you.” 

Before Xavier came to Genecity and became a professor, he had been living in Emperion. He was a local that spoke with an Emperionian accent, which made him sound more eccentric. 

Hesper lowered her head. 

It’s true that I’m the one who was at fault in the matter that happened back then. I also now know how hard-won the spot in the competition that I gave up was. Professor Jenkins must’ve put a lot of thought and effort into securing that spot for me, and he was counting on me to come back with a championship title in order to make him look good. 

‘However, the matter between Rickard and me happened so suddenly back then, and the Duvals didn’t really give me any other choice. They immediately removed me from the college without asking for my input. They didn’t even give me a chance to explain the whole thing to Professor Jenkins before dragging. me back.’ 

“I have only one question for you. Having decided to come back and study again, is it because you really want to learn something, some new skills, and want to pave a career path for yourself in this field? Or did you just happen to remember that there were a few subjects that you didn’t get to finish back then, and. now you came back here to dawdle?” 

Xavier stared deeply at this protégé that he was most proud of back then. 

‘If I were to say that I wasn’t disappointed in her back then, that would be a lie. After she left, I really wished I could go after her and ask her for the reason personally.” 

However, even if there was a sense of disappointment, it had all disappeared the moment he saw Hesper standing in front of him with a deeply troubled look. 

Hearing this, Hesper lifted her head. In her eyes, there were a lot of things that she did not have four years ago; confidence, clarity, and determination were among those things that were now present. 

“Yes, I really want to learn, Professor Jenkins. I really love designing.” 

The firmness in Hesper’s eyes did not lie. She had been looking through her previous designs, which were already a little hazy in her memory, but she still remembered how she had spent countless sleepless nights for any one of those drafts. 

Her efforts were not fake; she truly liked it. That was why she would go to that extent. 

Xavier looked at her for a while, then nodded. “Okay, I’ll regard what you said as true. Just make sure that 

you put in the effort and learn as much as you can in the future. As long as you still have the ability and the edge, I, Xavier Jenkins, will bring you to any suitable occasion that I can bring you to so that you’ll get the exposure and, eventually, the fame.”
