Chapter 396
*Jeez, when can you stop being such an unreliable girl?” Mdm, Jenkins placed the dish on the table and smacked Jessie’s arm. “Whoever marries you in the future must be the most unlucky man in the world.”
“Why do you always say that I can’t get married? Do you know how hurtful it is…”
They chatted happily throughout the meal, and Hesper finally made up her mind. Xavier was right. An opportunity like this was not something that one would come by every day, and she might not be so lucky the next time.
Since she had decided to become a designer, she should respect the path.
“You don’t have to worry about the procedures. I’ll contact them and make sure you can go to Fredonia without any issue,” Xavier said. He had a few cups of wine, so his face was red.
“Thank you so much, Professor Jenkins.” Hesper nodded.
After they had finished their meal, Jessie pulled Hesper into her room. Hesper had not told Matthew that she had come back that day, and she had not talked to him about going abroad either, so she could not return to her apartment.
“I’m so happy that you can stay with me for one night. We can relive the feeling of being in the dormitory a few years ago…”
Hesper watched as Jessie made the bed for her. After that, she patted the space next to her and said, “Don’t be shy! If my family had a third room to take you in, I wouldn’t have let you sleep with me tonight; after all, I don’t have good sleeping manners. I would have wanted to leave a good impression before you depart from the country.”
Both of them fell silent when Jessie mentioned going abroad. Hesper had considered a lot of things before making up her mind, but Jessie was not one of them. Speaking of which, Jessie could be considered as her best friend in the whole world.
“It’s not like we can’t keep in touch after you leave. But make sure you don’t ghost me this time. Otherwise, I won’t talk to you when you come back,” Jessie said seriously.
Hesper nodded. “I’m sorry. I promise I won’t this time.”
“Relax, you don’t have to be so serious about it. When you left back then, I was really sad. I thought you found me too noisy and were worried that my presence was causing you trouble.”
This was something that Hesper did not expect. Everything happened too suddenly at that time. Even she herself did not know how to react to it, so she did not tell Jessie about it.
Both of them lay side by side on the bed. Hesper closed her eyes and said, “What happened that year… wasn’t that simple.”
Hesper calmly recounted what happened after she dropped out of university and left. She had not told anyone about these things before, but now that she was talking about it, it did not seem as difficult as she had imagined. It all came out through her lips even smoother than she thought it
would.
didn’t know so much had happened. I actually think it’s a shame, because Rickard looks like someone who’s dependable. I never expected him to treat you like that,” Jessie said as she threw
few punches into the air. “How dare he continue to show up in front of you? Does he want to emulate those on TV and try to win back his ex? If I were you, I wouldn’t forgive him for the rest of my life.”
