Two weeks passed by in á blur.
Dante had to go back to the Lycan City to attend to some matters.
Despite this, he always called daily to check up on me.
His care made me feel the joy of love that I had almost missed because of the trauma my rejection caused.
Sadie had been coming to the Barringtons‘ mansion for a visit and my adoptive parents had gotten familiar with her.
For now, I had no plans to go to the Lycan City yet. I wanted to go there in style.
I wanted to go there when I achieved something. I don’t want Madam Romanos’s plans to catch me unawares.
I wanted to tie up every loose ends if I can.
I did not want to depend on Mrs Barrington and Rocky Barrington for everything
My past had taught me to prepare for evey possibility there is.
What if they decide I was not worthy of being their daughter anymore?
I know Mrs Barrington’s love for me right now is genuine but my past experiences had made me suspicious and
I wanted something I could control.
The Barrington’s company wasn’t mine. It is for my adoptive parents. I want something that is solely mine.
Something that can not be taken away by others on a whim even if they are not on good terms with me.
I was being too cautious but I can not help myself.
My actions might be considered to be polluting the trust and love between us but I have no choice.
These past two weeks, I had made fifteen shoe drawings. The designs were for my shoe factory.
Today, I was going with Sadie to check the building that was going to act as my business headquarters.
I did not want to bring her before but she insisted in going.
No man is an island.
wary.:
I planned to buy the building and other necessary facilities with my saved allowance and the little bit of money I borrowed from
She had said I shouldn’t return it but in my mind, I knew I would find a way to repay her kindness.
These past few weeks, my enemies had been very quiet. Still, I waited for them to act patiently.
I alighted from the car and Sadie came from the other side.
She came to my house and we headed to the only building Iwas willing to come check out.
I had three choices previously but two options had to be eliminated because I wasn’t satisfied when I saw their 3D models.
This building was the only one I liked.
It wasn’t a building with stories or floors but a sprawling building that occupied most of the land it was on.
The front had a wide space that could be used as the store front. The store front would showcase our goods on display.
The other side had a huge building that was connected to the big space I wanted to use as store front.
I wanted to use this place as the main factory.
A medium sized square room was connected to this building that I set aside for the factory and I wanted to use it as my personal
office.
I had already intewiewed some people that were knowledgeable in this shoe business.
Although most of my work is to design how the shoes would look, I stayed up for hours researching how this business worked.
I did not want my employees to deceive me..
I did not want to be the clueless boss that would be taken advantage of by her subordinates.
The people I had eventually employed had to go through a second check by my adoptive father.
I did not refuse this help.
I did not want any moles in my workplace.
I walked into the building and checked everywhere. It was exactly like the 3D model the owner put up.
I went back into the car and wired the money to the owner. I made sure the owner knew my identity as the adoptive daughter of
the Barringtons.
This identity was useful. It kept those with bad intentions at bay.
Although this does not mean they won’t do anything, some of them would still consider how the Barringtons would react before
they make a move.
Since I did not meet the owner face to face, this was a countermeasure to ensure the owner sends the deed and receipt of the
“Congratulations.” Sadie said, “You have left the group chat for unemployed people.”
I smiled.
“Don’t say
that. Don’t worry, you can accompany me later as my assistant. I don’t have any other thing you can do.” I said to Sadie and she
nodded.
I don’t know why I feel like she wasn’t as happy as she portrayed.
Regarding this matter, I have tried my best.
Only the position of my assistant is okay for her to take.
The other positions had a high demand for experience in this fashion business.Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
I was not trying to land a hit on her pride.
“I feel like you are not happy about my offer. You can choose not to do it.” I closed my eyes to relax as I spoke.
“You are too sensitive. Who said I did not want to?” She countered and I let the matter rest.
I don’t know why the reunion with Sadie was not as I thought.
I have changed and she had changed too.
We are still getting along but I can not help this feeling of this being the calm before the storm.
I don’t know if it is me being overcautious.
I do not even fully trust Mrs Barrington so I was not surprised I am going over Sadie and her behaviors with a fine tooth comb.
War was coming and there is only a little bit of time to prepare so I wanted to be extremely careful.
The evil god, Daemon was watching me. I don’t know what his plans for me are.
I can not let my guard down.
I feel like he would want to target whoever was close to me to cause the greatest damage to me.
It would be like the case with alpha Jake, my first mate.
He facilitated the rejection so I would be struck by the pain and lose my mind.
The only person I don’t really have any suspicions on is Dante. I don’t know why but I feel like he is reliable.
I chucked all the thoughts about Daemon out of my mind and focused on my business.
There was a new show coming up in Sera city. It was a fashion show that exhibited dresses, shoes and every thing that could be
used to beautify.
Dante helped me get a slot because I could not snatch a slot even with the influence of the Barringtons.
I had to prepare.
The show was very close and I have to refine my drawings so the factory would begin making them
