A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 348

Chapter 348 

The competition finally came to a close and work at Genecity started to slow down. Hesper canceled her leave and went back to class. 

Professor Jenkins was very happy. He didn’t feel as elated even when Michelle apologized to him, but Hesper getting first place and becoming the favorite of Roberto made him feel that he was right and she didn’t ruin his reputation. 

“You don’t know how my dad talked to everyone about you. I don’t think he ever did that to me before.” 

Jessie pouted. “But listen, he’s going to put on his poker face and say that you did well and tell you. not to be too proud because there’s still a long way to go…” 

Hesper always knew that Jessie was very good at imitating. She knew that when he spoke he would have his hands behind his back, so she chuckled. 

“Why do I feel a few years younger whenever I’m with you? The last time I talked to someone about my dad behind his back feels like a hundred years ago.” Jessie giggled. “I was watching the annoying people in the group talk behind my back and couldn’t stand it.” 

They walked to the office and Jessie waved. “Go ahead. My dad has a bone to pick with me recently, so I’m not going to go in.” 

“Have a bone to pick?” Hesper raised her brows. “What did you do?” 

Jessie looked annoyed. “Because I messed up my blind date. I’m only twenty-five. There’s no need to keep trying to marry me off. My parents are more anxious than I am and keep setting me up for a bunch of blind dates. My pictures might be posted in the park asking for a date.” 

Hesper didn’t think that was a thing, but seeing how miserable Jessie was, she found it funny. 

“Why are parents introducing people to their children recently?” Hesper chuckled. 

Jessie asked, “Who else was forced to go on blind dates? Do all these parents have too much. time on their hands?” 

What Jessie said pulled Hesper back and she fell silent. 

She suddenly thought about Rickard. If he really got married, whatever she had in mind would go. 

to waste. 

She wasn’t Juniper, who would try to seduce someone’s husband. 

“Hesper?” Jessie shook her arm. “What’s on your mind?” 

Hesper turned her face and shook her head. “Nothing. I just suddenly remembered something. I’m. heading in. Let’s have lunch later. I’m buying.” 

“No way. You’re the winner of a competition, so I’m paying. It’s a celebration.” 

“Alright.” Hesper nodded and walked into the office. 

Jessie watched her walk in and closed the door, then scratched her head. 

“Why do I feel like she’s hiding something?”
