A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 257

Chapter 257 

You better not try to stand out. 

By the fifteenth minute, everyone was growing tired. Hesper sat on her luggage bag and guessed that by that time, someone would probably be there to get them soon. 

The second after that thought came to her mind, party poppers went off in the sky. 

After some cheering, the shuttle buses showed up to get their bags while confetti floated to the ground. Some fell on Hesper’s shoulder and hair. Celine looked at the confetti and her eyes were shining. 

“It’s so pretty. It would be so nice if we could record it.” 

Hesper looked at her, then smiled. “Don’t worry, someone is recording.” 

The Lanes went all out on the budget. They prepared a luxurious hotel and the producers led them to the concierge for keycard collection. Hesper and Celine were at the back of the group following along at a casual pace. 

Michelle was walking in front of the crowd, but when she saw the two hanging at the back, she slowed down and fell back. 

“Hello, Hesper.” Michelle greeted her then acted as if she had just seen Celine and beamed at her. “Oh, Celine is here too. I haven’t seen you in so long since the other competition.” 

Celine told the truth. “It’s only been half a month. Not that long.” 

Hesper tried not to laugh, then spoke seriously like Celine. “It’s just been two weeks. Not too long.” 

Michelle felt humiliated because she wasn’t expecting Hesper and Celine to be so blunt and tried to cover for herself. “Well, people say absence makes the heart grow fonder. I’m so glad to see you here.” 

Celine nodded but didn’t speak. Hesper walked beside her and Michelle didn’t want to set herself up again, so she walked quickly to the front and blended into the crowd. 

“Hmm… why do I have a feeling that Michelle Sullivan is a little fake? I don’t think Celine Campbell knew her very well previously.” 

“Michelle knows number 23? Everyone seems to know someone except 23.” 

“Michelle previously framed Celine. Why is she pretending to be her friend? Haha.” 

“You’re all just haters. Michelle was the winner. She doesn’t need to play any games.” 

“Michelle is the best!” 

After everyone got their luggage, the organizer handed out reprogrammed phones. They couldn’t be used for any form of communication, but everything else functions as usual. 

“Can we transfer what we have on these phones to our phones after the competition?”
