Chapter 287Chapter 287
Matthew watched the live broadcast too and could not help but feel a little helpless.
This is the Hesper that I know. No matter what it is, as long as she can get it by herself through the
right way, she’ll never turn to other means. Relatively speaking, Lane Holdings’ competition is a fair
one, so no matter how popular a participant is, It’s useless if the person doesn’t have the ability. And
Hesper has directly cut off all possibility of her relying on her good looks to earn popularity in the
novelbintournament.’
Renfrew watched the live broadcast with Rickard too. His allergic reactions and symptoms had
completely subsided, so he could be discharged and go home after the final physical examination.
Renfrew’s eyes lit up when he saw Hesper. “Mommy looks so beautiful!”
Rickard nodded and stared at Hesper on the screen.
‘She looks completely different from the president of Lane Holdings who bosses other people around. I
think because she’s doing what she likes, it looks like she’s glistening from all angles. She’s always
been an excellent woman, but it actually took me so many years to realize this.”
Looking at Hesper’s design, Renfrew looked at Rickard with a hazy idea. “Is Mommy saying that she
Ads by PubFuture loves me very much?”
“Yes.”
Rickard thought of the past, the night when Hesper jumped off the building.
Although Hesper did not say anything on stage, Rickard knew very clearly that this dress was inspired
by that incident. ‘She must’ve suffered a lot of pain. She’s gone through so much suffering and torture over and over
again, and she’s poured all those agonies into this dress.”
Renfrew was exhilarated when he got the affirmation, while Rickard lowered his head and patted him
on his tiny head. “Your mommy… She really loves you more than anyone else in this world.”
‘Her love for Renfrew is hundreds of folds or even thousands of folds larger than anyone else’s.”‘
After a good night’s rest, Hesper finally felt fully recharged again.
Hesper did not feel proud or happy because she had won first place in the third round of the
tournament. She knew that she must take each step extra cautiously and more seriously from now
onward. She also knew that she had won this round with her own ability, so she was still very confident
with her skills.
What she wanted to know more about now was the participant named Shawn Lane who emerged out
of
Ads by PubFuture nowhere.
Hesper started paying attention to Shawn’s ranking in this round and realized that he was ranked in the
first half of all the contestants. There was nothing too outstanding about his work, but he would not be
eliminated either.
Because there were very few men in this batch of designers, there were indeed some discussions that
talked about him on the Internet, but in comparison, they did not cause many ripples online.
“Shawn?”
When Matthew heard the name, he felt a little familiar, so he responded truthfully, “I seem to have
heard it somewhere.” Hearing what Matthew said, Hesper became a little curious.
“I originally thought that that fella is just a fake, but now it seems that there are secrets hidden
somewhere in the middle of this matter? Matthew seems to know him, but I’ve never seen him
anywhere near the Lanes…
If I’m not mistaken, he seems to be Uncle Theo’s illegitimate son.”
“What?”
‘The Lanes’ family tree has a lot of branches, and there have been too many people who appeared at
the Lane Manor’s doorsteps, wanting to schmooze their way into the family, but I’ve more or less met
and gotten to know all those who have been taken in and regarded as part of the family. However, as
for illegitimate children… Heck, that’s not a small number.”
“I see, I know now. But still, the person who’s spreading the rumors about him is too outrageous.”
