Chapter 280
When Hesper got there, Celine was already there. When she saw the dark circles under Hesper’s eyes, she was shocked.
“You didn’t sleep last night?”
Because of how concerned she sounded, Hesper couldn’t just brush her off.
Hesper slept at the hospital because she was worried about Renfrew. She would wake up every time he moved, worried that something might happen again, so she looked very tired after waking up.
After hesitating, she nodded. “Something happened yesterday, but it’s fine now.”
The third stage of the competition was when things got heated. Everyone was in their best state because no one wanted to be the one eliminated. Celine was worried seeing how tired she was.
“I’m fine.” Hesper patted her shoulder. “We’re going to be competitors from today onward, Ms. Campbell.”
It was true. From the third stage onward, it would be individual competitions.
Celine chuckled. Even though that was true, she wasn’t nervous because she knew that Hesper wouldn’t do anything to harm her. Maybe it was because she had seen how bad things could get during the Duval competition, so she was ready.
She was happy to be able to advance.
“Hesper seems to be doing terribly today… I’m disappointed. Why didn’t she manage her life but instead let things happen before the competition?”
“Everyone has their own life. No one expects accidents to happen…”
“Isn’t the competition the most important thing? She’s not some big shot that needs to support everyone. I don’t think she’s going to make it to the end.”
“Oh, are you an oracle?”
Michelle was shocked to see Hesper.
She thought that Hesper would be very serious during the third stage because it was based on individual work. This was the time to shine in front of the judges.
Hesper knew what Michelle was thinking just by looking at her.
Even though she didn’t rest well, she still managed to finish a design by herself effortlessly. Michelle was going to be disappointed.
“Alright, everyone is here. Let’s take a look at the theme.”
The host stood on stage. Hesper and Celine were at the back of the group and couldn’t really see the words on the sign until the host read it out.
“Mother.”
