A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 284

Chapter 284 

“Our distinguished guest, Mr. Sanchez, has arrived at our tournament without any prior notice. 

Contestants, are you feeling a little nervous now?!” The host’s excited voice sounded, and everyone came back to their senses, 

Hesper looked at herself nervously, worried that something might look wrong with her. 

‘Oh my God, I’m not only nervous but also shocked.” 

Roberto had always been relatively kind. He was born in Fredonia and grew up amidst the country’s unique romantic atmosphere, which made his emerald eyes look exceptionally gentle. At this time, he looked at the designers sitting in the auditorium, and even his eyes were beaming with delight. 

“I believe that every one of you will perform well, so don’t be nervous.” 

After saying a few words, Roberto left the stage to the host. 

Celine was also a little excited. Roberto was a legendary mission of the fashion design field that all designers wished to overcome and complete at least once in their lifetimes. When it was originally reported that Roberto was going to collaborate with Lane Holdings, many people did not believe it at first, but Roberto was really there today. 

“Perhaps the president of Lane Holdings knows Roberto? Both of them should belong to the same social class, right?” 

The two ladies sitting in the front row were discussing, and the other quickly answered, “Don’t you know that contestant number 3 is Shawn Lane? He’s one of the Lanes. I heard that he’s very close with the president of Lane Holdings, so he knows everything about the company!” 

“Ah? Are you telling me that some shady deals are going on here? If he knows what every round of the competition is about, he can prepare in advance… I thought the Lane Holdings’ tournament was a fair and square one. I didn’t expect someone to be building a plot here.” 

“Hey, just how naïve can you be? If you were to ask me, Hesper and Michelle are both going to be turned into stepping stones at the end of the tournament. Lane Holdings might even have organized this tournament only to push their personal favorite into the limelight.” 

“I see…” 

They were sitting not far away, so both Celine and Hesper heard their conversation. Celine blinked and said nothing, but Hesper’s mind was flooded with questions in an instant. 

‘Since when did Matthew have such a relative and friend?’ 

‘It’s impossible for Matthew to tell others about the details of the competition that even I don’t know about… If I’m not mistaken, the Shawn Lane that they mentioned is a total fraud.” 

Before Hesper went to Emperion and joined the Lanes as Rachael Lane, she had memorized the whole family tree of the Lanes. She was sure that she did not see such a name on the diagram. 

In order to search for contestant number 3 in the crowd, Hesper looked around for a while before locating the man. 

‘He doesn’t look too old, but the lie that he’s been spreading around is very well made up, and it’s only spread among a very small group of people. If it wasn’t for what I heard from the two ladies earlier, I might not ever know about this information even after going through the whole competition.” 

On the other side of the auditorium, it was already dress number 5’s turn to step onto the catwalk. 

ntestant number 5 was Celine, so Hesper immediately shifted her gaze back onto the runway.
