Chapter 475

Jared’s personality had changed so much, it felt strange to me–but honestly, it was working in my favor.

I looked at his gloomy face, realizing I still hadn’t found a good reason to establish myself in Braylin. Jared sending me there for work gave me the perfect

cover.

After a moment of calm thought, I curved my lips into a smile. “Mr. Holcomb, your offer is really tempting.”

Jared’s eyes grew darker, and there was a pleading note in his voice. “Victoria, will you say yes?”

“You’re giving me both an opportunity and money. I really don’t have a reason to say no,” I said, and after thinking it through, I agreed.

You shouldn’t put all your eggs in one basket–turns out, love works the same way.

My relationship with Ryan was destined to be just a fleeting moment, never meant to last.

Where would I go once Ryan lost interest in me?

Jared’s job offer was my backup, my safety net.

A warm smile flickered across Jared’s handsome face. “It’s settled then. You’ll represent the company and head to Braylin to open our new store.”

I nodded, keeping my tone modest. “I’m still pretty inexperienced, Mr. Holcomb. Could you send a few more talented people to work alongside me?”

Jared’s furrowed brow eased, and his voice grew lighter. “Don’t worry. I’ll handle everything.”
