A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 254

“Matt?”

Hesper, not having expected him to show up, tugged at her sleeve that she rolled up before.

“Why are you waiting here? I’m not a child anymore. I can find my way home.”

Matthew shook his head. “It’s too late. As a woman, it’s unsafe for you to be alone.”

“Oh…” Hesper walked over to walk next to him.

Hesper felt down-to-earth as she walked next to him because there was a sense of familial love that

she never felt before this.

The feeling Matthew gave was different from what she got from Grandpa Ernest. Maybe because

Hesper used to be more egoistic and sensitive, but she was thankful and respected the man who

pulled her out of the orphanage. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

However, Matthew was different. Hesper thought that she was meant to be his sister after meeting

him.

When they got home, Hesper suddenly remembered that Matthew couldn’t cook, so she was curious if

he had eaten.

“What did you have for dinner?”

Matthew was silent for a few minutes. “I didn’t.”

As Hesper expected. She nodded. “I’ll see what I have at home. There are eggs and a slab of beef. I

think there is some spaghetti too. I can cook that for you.”

“It’s fine…” Matthew was going to reject her, but Hesper already put her apron on. When she heard

what Matthew said, she turned around. “Just sit down and wait for the food. Why? Don’t you trust my

cooking skills?”

Matthew shook his head, but Hesper had already turned around and didn’t see that.

“I just think that… you might be too tired.”

The next day, Hesper hopped onto the bus that was for the competition with her luggage.

The competition was going to be grander than the Duvals’. If the competition held by Lane Holdings

and Genecity University was known even in the few cities around them, then Roberto’s name was the

best marketing tool. A lot of designers from other countries came over to take part.

The time between preliminaries and the closing of registration was very short, but after Hesper got on

the bus and saw the contestants, she was still surprised.

These were just contestants from one area, and it was enough to show how tight the competition was

going to be.

“This one’s empty…” Hesper was looking for a seat when a woman’s voice was heard.

“Here!”

The woman’s voice was a little timid. Hesper looked over and saw someone unexpected.

“Celine?” Hesper didn’t expect to see Celine Campbell there. She also didn’t expect her to have

already recovered from what happened during the Duval competition, ready to take part in a new

competition.

Celine didn’t think that Hesper would recognize her, so she was shocked. However, she still moved

aside and let Hesper take her seat, then pointed at herself. “You know who I am?”
