After packing up her belongings, Hesper applied for a leave of absence with Xavier.
‘In my current state, even if I were to attend all the lectures, I wouldn’t learn anything, so why not just
ask for a one-day leave and get some rest?”
Xavier did not say anything about her absence. He only asked her how she was feeling and reminded
her to prepare herself.
Xavier. We still haven’t received any news from Lane Holdings yet. When I get information about the
total quotas that we have, you’ll be the first to know.
Seeing what Professor Jenkins had to say, Hesper felt warm deep down. But Xavier was not the only
one who did not know how Lane Holdings would determine the quota, as even Hesper did not know
the
details at that moment.
But there was no doubt that they wanted to initiate this competition before the end of the competition.
organized by Duval Group. With the popularity that the Duval Group had created, coupled with
Roberto, al more well-known designer, the Duval Group’s tournament would become the springboard
that would push their competition to new heights.
The addition of new media had made the competition more entertaining, but Hesper did not intend to
market this competition as a highly entertaining but amateur event. If Lane Holdings were to mess this
tournament up, it would become a humiliation for Roberto and the whole design industry. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
‘If we’re going to do it, we’ll have to do it the right way. And I must achieve a breakthrough in my
design. career through this competition, relying only on my own ability.”
Another busy week passed, and it was time to meet Renfrew again.
Probably because the collaboration between Lane Holdings and Roberto had made a lot of headlines
recently, but Duval Group had also been pushed into the limelight. Compared to Lane Holdings’ serious
preparations for the tournament, Duval Group’s competition focused more on the entertaining aspect of
things, so its reputation gradually dropped.
Rickard did not come this time around; he only asked Renfrew to put a contract in his backpack and
deliver it to his mommy.
Hesper scanned through it and found out that it was related to some equipment that she needed for the
competition.
If not for the fact that Hesper had not seen Rickard recently, she might have suspected that he was
silently observing her from the shadows.
Without any hesitation, Hesper went through the contract and signed it. “He’s sending me money, so
why not? I could really get used to this.”
Hesper closed the pen cap, glanced at Renfrew who was staring at her solemnly, and felt her heart
melt. ” Ren, is there anything you want to do today?”
Hearing this, Renfrew shook his head sensibly, his dark brown eyes looking exceptionally gorgeous. He
looked at Hesper with his radiant gaze. “Mommy, have you been very busy recently? There’s nothing
that I want to do today. I only want to stay by your side!”
Although Hesper’s life was hectic, she still set aside a whole day to spend time with Renfrew. She had
been planning for today since the beginning of the week, but Renfrew insisted that there was nowhere
he wanted to go and that he only wanted to stay at home, so Hesper had no choice but to submit to
her
son’s wish. She ordered a small slice of cake and ate it with Renfrew.
The two of them spent the afternoon watching cartoons, and Hesper had not felt so relaxed in such a
long time. However, when she turned her head, she discovered that Renfrew had fallen asleep in the
comer of the couch at some point. She stretched her hand out and turned down the volume of the TV.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Hesper Immediately looked in the direction of the door.
‘I thought I told everyone that no matter what urgent matter came up today, they could only send me a
message, and after reading it, I’d decide whether or not to deal with it immediately. Not many people in
Genecity know where I live, and if it’s, Jessie, she would’ve asked me if I’m home before coming here.
‘So who could it be?’
