Chapter 219
“Haha, I’m just joking.” Jessie patted Hesper’s shoulder. “I’m telling you this to vindicate my dad. I just want you to be careful not to make my dad angry anymore.”
Hesper didn’t explain herself and just nodded.
After leaving, Hesper tried to get more information about how the Duval competition was going on.
She had an out-of-sight, out-of-mind attitude about it, so she didn’t pay attention to the competition. However, the competition was a lot more interesting than the previous years because some celebrities joined in and it became more entertaining, so the public was more interested in it.
It was obvious that Rickard put effort into it.
Hesper looked at some of the work through the night and could see that it was commercialized and had a lesser focus on authority like the previous years, so it was good that she didn’t take part.
Michelle did stand out in the competition, but everything revolved around how she ‘had looks and money ‘. As for her designs, Hesper could see that it was catered to the public and did not show her personality. She was able to get high scores because she was the most popular contestant.
In comparison, a contestant who had gotten an average score had more personality in their work, but because the person didn’t talk a lot and was boring, they were on the verge of getting eliminated.
Hesper frowned, especially when Michelle was given a chance to take the materials from that contestant but didn’t even end up using what she took. Michelle pretended that she forgot about those materials during the interview.
Hesper just thought that Michelle was a disrespectful person at first, but it was obvious that she was a jealous person too.
People wouldn’t be able to tell, but those who were from the industry could see who produced better work.
Her phone suddenly vibrated and Hesper moved her laptop out of the way, then picked up her phone from the carpet. She saw that Jessie added her to a group called ‘Friendship Forever’.
Three puppies: Is this really Hesper? Jessie, I thought you lost contact with her.
Lulu: I heard that someone saw Hesper in Emperion and she was with two men so that person didn’t go and say hi to her.
Michelle: When was that? I thought Hesper got married. I miss her!
Hesper slowly read all the messages and Jessie tagged her at the bottom, saying that they were going to hold a reunion and that was why she was added.
Hesper: Alright. Hello everyone, I’m Hesper.
A bunch of messages suddenly flooded in after her message was sent. Hesper didn’t have time to read all of them and was curious. Did she have so many coursemates? From what she remembered, only a few spoke to her.
