“The building has been refurbished, so it might be different from what you remembered.”
The facilities at Genecity University weren’t too bad because they would get new supplies every year,
but she never saw them fully refurbish a building. Hesper realized how much the ‘refurbishment’ was
when she walked into the building.
It was as though everything except the frame of the building was new. Outsiders would think that it was
à different school.
“I remembered that the Duval Group sponsored to refurbish the art faculty. Other than this building, that
one had a facelift too.”
Hesper froze in her steps.
“Duval Group?”
Seeing her reaction, the counselor explained. “I don’t know a lot of details because this doesn’t concern
me… But I heard people saying that one of the Duvals studied here.”
There wasn’t anyone from the family who studied here.
Emotions rose in Hesper’s heart.
Did Ernest refurbish the place while she was pregnant so she could be surprised when she resumed
her studies?
But… she didn’t stay there for long and didn’t get to spend time with Ernest.
She didn’t see all this.
Ever since her return to Genecity, Hesper hadn’t met Ernest. She didn’t want to talk about what
happened in the past, nor did she want to make Ernest feel guilty because of her. However, walking
around campus made Hesper feel sad.
“Hesper?”
A familiar voice came from behind her. Hesper turned around and saw a woman holding a box of paint
and looking at her with a shocked expression.
“It’s really you, Hesper!”
Her memories came back. The excited woman before her matched someone from her memory. The
woman pushed the box into the counselor’s arms and rushed over to give Hesper a big hug.
“It’s been so long. I thought I would never see you again!”
Hesper stretched out her hands and awkwardly patted the girl’s back.
“I’m back, Jess.”
This bubbly woman was Hesper’s best friend and roommate, Jessie Jenkins, daughter of Professor
Jenkins. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Ever since Hesper got married and moved out of their dorm, she attended fewer and fewer classes and
spent less time with Jessie.
Remembering how they would wake up early just to get food from the cafeteria, they seemed to have
gone back to four years ago and Hesper’s eyes turned red.
Jessie let go of Hesper and looked at her from head to toe, then pouted and said, “Do you know
my
dad
almost cursed you to death? I didn’t dare bring you up in front of him these past few years.”
Jessie didn’t ask her anything, but that made Hesper feel even guiltier.
