Chapter 239
Isaac shook his head when that idea crept into his mind. If Rickard was someone so emotional, he wouldn’t have hurt Hesper.
Compared to money, relationships were so unsubstantial. What one could hold was much more realistic. As for love and feelings… they would always grow weaker over time, so it wasn’t considered real. Hesper was a little confused when she woke up. Mondays were always busy.
She slept late that night. No one would be able to deal with that.
Jessie looked at the uncharacteristically tired Hesper and said, “Where were you last night? You’re going to outdo pandas with those dark circles.”
Hesper was a little out of it as she walked to the lecture halls with Jessie. There was a noise coming from the room; they looked at each other and saw the confusion in their eyes.
Everyone would usually act the way Hesper was acting so early in the morning; even if it wasn’t dead silent, it was as if the room was on silent mode.
Why was it noisy this morning?
They curiously opened the door and realized that someone was on the stage.
“Hesper! And Jess?”
Michelle turned around and she had a surprised smile on her face. “I heard that Hesper was in this class, so I came to see. Didn’t expect to see Jess here too.”
Hesper didn’t show any expression but instead walked to a seat in the final row and sat down. Jessie didn’t bother to pretend to be nice to Michelle and just coldly looked at the others who were making noise before placing the teaching materials on the table.
“Have you all lost your minds? Professor Jenkins will be here soon and if he hears this noise, with his temper, he’s going to kick you all out.”
Everyone quieted down after Xavier was mentioned, but Michelle was the top alumni of the faculty and was very popular currently, so there was nothing wrong with them being so excited.
Hesper tiredly rested her eyes and was thinking of skipping the morning class, but there this woman was, in full makeup and dressed up just to show up to annoy her.
Hesper, who had such limited time to rest and would do anything to extend it, just couldn’t understand what Michelle was thinking, but she couldn’t care less and just laid down on the desk to rest.
Michelle did wake up early to dress up and even wore haute couture by the Duval Group. However, it was out of place in school.
Jessie walked to Hesper and sat down next to her, feeling annoyed as she looked at Michelle standing on
stage.
