A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 81

“You seem very surprised to see me, don’t you, Ms. Wight?” Hesper had already sat down on the guest

table with a faint smirk, but Juniper was still standing in a daze, too surprised, almost astonished, and

the scene dove into a moment of awkwardness.

“Juni, what’s wrong with you? Say something, quickly!” Her

assistant’s anxious reminder sounded in her earphones, and Juniper finally came back to her senses.

As she sat down gracefully, she tried to cover up her embarrassment from just now with a series of

commendations. “Yes, it’s a little surprising. I didn’t expect our guest to be this young. You look so

young and promising, Ms. Rivera.”

She placed quite a bit of emphasis on the last few words, giving off a

sarcastic tone.

Hesper chuckled all of a sudden. “Ms. Wight, didn’t you go through the script before you came into this

interview as the host? It’s Ms. Lane, not Ms. Rivera.”

“Nonsense, you’re obviously…” Halfway through her exclamation, Juniper stopped abruptly. She

remembered what she saw when she was going through the script backstage. The guest that they had

invited today was indeed Ms. Lane. However, she had forgotten about it because Hesper was the one

who took the stage.

“You’re Ms. Lane?”

“Other than that, who else would I be?”

Juniper felt a chill up her spine, then a wave of numbness crept underneath her scalp from the back of

her head up to the front.

‘This woman is obviously Hesper. I’d still recognize her even if she’d

been burned down to ashes. How did she become Ms. Lane out of

nowhere?

“Ms. Wight, shouldn’t we be starting already? At the end of the day, this is still a live broadcast.” Hesper

let off casual ridicule.

Hearing this, Juniper quickly adjusted her state and forced a smile.” That was only a joke to lighten the

mood of the interview. We’ll

officially start the session now.”

However, anyone with a discerning eye could tell whether it was a joke or not.

The director sat silently behind the camera. His expression looked so dissatisfied that no one around

him dared to approach him at this

moment.

He originally chose to entrust this project to Juniper because of her attractive and young appearance,

but who knew that she would cause such a huge problem during her first interview?

Other colleagues were also whispering to each other. “Juniper

doesn’t seem to be prepared for this. How in the world can she make such a rudimentary mistake?”

“Who knows? Perhaps she thinks she’s a famous celebrity now, so she didn’t take the script seriously.”

Juniper’s assistant bit her lip as she heard the comments, but she dared not say a word.

She was just an assistant; what someone like her thought would not

matter.

Fortunately, the director gave those people a cold glare. “Shut up, and go back to your desk and study

your script if you have nothing to do. Something like this had better not happen when you’re hosting

your

own show!”

“…Yes, sir.” Those who got reprimanded could only keep their mouths shut.

At this time, Juniper had gradually regained her rationale and rhythm. She stared at the woman who

was answering her question and smiling at the camera, and a beam of coldness shot out of her eyes as

she deliberately asked, “Ms. Lane, you’ve become the president of a company at such a young age.

Would you mind sharing your secret with our audience?”

Hesper glanced at her unconcernedly and replied indifferently, “It’s just a lot of hard work and effort.”

The answer to this type of question had always been extremely predictable. Most interviewees would

only provide the interviewer with a rather superficial and general answer. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

But Juniper immediately asked to follow up on that response. “What kind of effort would it be, Ms.

Lane? Perhaps you can elaborate more

on that?”

Her tone made the question sound obviously deliberate, and everyone on and off the interview project

frowned for a split second.

Hesper remained silent for a short while too.

Juniper thought she was quiet because she was scared and became more and more aggressive. “Let’s

make this the final question before we end this interview. As far as I know, you’re an orphan and grew

up in an orphanage. You even filed a divorce from your ex-husband three years ago because of some

issues in your marriage. So, how did you change your last name and become the president of Lanes

Holdings?
