It went without saying that Hesper understood everything that Pennleigh said. Before she received any recognition from her clients, the very reason she could get any designing jobs in the beginning was mainly due to Eustoma's reputation.
Pennleigh and Eustoma had provided a lot of opportunities for her, but she was not going to stay in Antellon forever. When the semester ended, she would graduate, which also meant she would have to go back to her home country.
If she continued to stay in the comfortable environment provided by Eustoma, she would not be able to advance further.
"Alright, let's stop worrying about something that hasn't happened yet. At the very least, I still have to finish the project I have in Eustoma first. Otherwise, I may not be able to explain myself to Elise," Hesper said as she patted Pennleigh's shoulder. "People come and go all the time, Mr. Pisano. As a boss of a company, you should be very familiar with it, so you don't have to feel too disappointed."
Pennleigh gave a bitter smile.
It was true that Hesper had her own considerations, but the initial reason for her decision was definitely to distance herself from him.
"Don't look so gloomy. Come, it's time for a great show."
After she had finished speaking, Hesper rose to her feet and exited the office with Pennleigh following closely behind.
