Chapter 434
“Is there a problem?”
Hesper shook her head. “I know this person. Everything else is fine.”
“Oh…” Pennleigh was confused. She said that she knew the client, but then she also said that there was no problem… So was there a problem or not?
Once the break began, Seth would temporarily go home. He didn’t know why but he felt relieved.
“Was training me so tiring? You just haven’t seen me for a few months and you look so much more relaxed.”
Hesper pretended to be annoyed. After Seth heard that, he went back to having a poker face and said after a long pause, “What do you know? Focus on your posture. We’ll spar later.”
Hesper felt that they had gotten closer, but he immediately went back to being cold. She didn’t want to read too much into it.
“By the way, I need your help on another thing.”
Hesper asked Seth to not tell anyone about her changing her face, even if it was Nate. However, now that Seth was going back, he might spend a lot of time with Nathaniel, so she was worried that he might let slip.
“I know, I won’t tell Nate,” Seth said.
Hesper nodded in relief. “I know you’re tight-lipped. Thanks, Sethy.”
Hearing that, Seth suddenly paused and, after a while, said, “Nate… used to call me that too.”
It didn’t sound right. When Hesper saw him lowering his head in thought, she guessed that they weren’t as close as they used to be. Otherwise, with that many options back home, Seth didn’t have to travel overseas to study.
Furthermore, the Tuckers had money, so why did Seth have to make his own?
“Alright, focus on your training.”
Hesper pouted. “Yes, Mr. Tucker.”

Even though it was a wedding dress for Juniper, the order was by Eustoma and it was the work of designer River A., so Hesper would still complete it responsibly.
Juniper had a lot of requests, but Hesper learned a lot while she worked with Eustoma, so she managed to handle all of them.
She had a lot of time to finish it. It was due in February of the next year. Even though Hesper still didn’t think that Carter was sincere in marrying Juniper, that was the reality. Juniper was an evil person but she managed to keep him around.
