Chapter 567
Estelle listened to them talk while gobbling down a plate of cakes. Bored, she leaned against the window and played games.
Hannah saw Mr. Mayfield take a call and head towards the corridor. She got up to follow him, wanting to ask for his thoughts on fashion design.
Watching Hannah leave, Alice turned to Carmella in a low voice, “Look, Ms. Sampson seems free now. Let’s go and meet her!” Carmella laughed lightly, “Sure!”
The two of them made up a random excuse to leave as well,
Miya watched Alice’s retreating figure and snickered quietly. She said to Inman, “She’s such a social climber among us. As a designer, in the end, it’s your work that matters most!”
