Chapter 223
Lucy stared at Hesper, who looked completely different from the young lady that she remembered, and could not even believe her own eyes,
When Jessie claimed that Hesper looked gorgeous in the group chat before this, she snorted secretly. The Hesper Rivera that she knew from back then looked just like a bumpkin from the countryside who did not know how to dress up, and all she knew how to do was study.
But the woman standing in front of her was well-dressed, her makeup looked delicate, and even the necklace that she had on looked low-key but expensive.
Lucy had some relatives who were living in Emperion, and she had been exposed to some luxury designer clothing and accessories since she was a child, so it was only natural for her to be able to see that
Hesper’s attire did not look anywhere near cheap.
‘How could Hesper have changed so much?!’
“I told you, Hesper is a belle. And all of you actually thought that I was exaggerating before this! You people should apologize to me and Hesper!”
Seeing Jessie’s smug expression, Hesper could not help but chuckle. She then pulled Jessie back. “Okay, we haven’t seen each other in a long time, so even I don’t recognize some of them at first glance.”
“Why hasn’t the host of this reunion arrived yet?”
Seeing that the limelight was all on Hesper, the people who were closer to Michelle took the opportunity to shift the center of attention back onto Michelle.
“Michelle is a very hectic person right now. Maybe something delayed her schedule while she’s on her way here. I’ll give her a call.” Lucy stood up and wanted to report the situation to Michelle in advance, but the door was pushed open in the next second.
“How is everyone so punctual?” Before everyone could see anyone, a bright and cheerful female voice slashed through the hubbub in the private room. “Am I late? I’m so sorry, a client contacted me just before.”
Hesper raised her head and saw Michelle entering the room coquettishly with a small handbag.
The Michelle that Hesper saw in the video looked more glamorous and delicate than in real life. And Hesper could not help but raise her eyebrows when she saw the designer bag in Michelle’s hand, which was produced by Lane Holdings’ subsidiary fashion company.
‘This is a product of the enterprise that’s currently at Duval Group’s throat, and she actually has the guts to carry this bag during such a sensitive period?’
Lucy also realized the same thing, but the other attendees probably did not know about the owner of the designer brand’s company, so she stepped forward and pulled Michelle over. “We were all waiting for you. You’re really busy, huh?”
Michelle chuckled twice, her clear and captivating laughter quickly attracting everyone’s attention. “It can’t be helped. Customers are always right, aren’t they?”
Hesper and Jessie stood in the corner, and they looked a little out of tune with the people standing at the front of the private room.
Naturally, Michelle did not want to make Hesper’s life too easy, so she looked around the room but did not see the nerd that, in her impression, had always had her head bowed, so she asked, “Why don’t I see Hesper? Isn’t she here yet?”
