Bride to Be, Not Me

Chapter 268

"Mhm." Janice set down her pen, looking utterly baffled. "Do you think there's something wrong with his brain?"

"He's just jealous you built a factory in Yewford Town," Edward said, hitting the nail on the head. "He probably thinks that if he sweet-talks you enough, you'll go back to working for him."

"As if!" Janice smacked the table. "If Yewford Town didn't have so many skilled seamstresses and business owners, I wouldn't have come back at all."

Hating a place because of one person was completely possible.

But back when she was a kid, the neighbors had helped Seraphina. And there were so many talented seamstresses here, women who couldn't leave home even if they wanted to.

That was why she was willing to manage this factory herself.

Edward shifted the topic. "The location for the next factory has already been decided. Do you want to check it out yourself, or should I send someone?"

"I'm going myself."

"If you do, use Refined Threads Co.'s name during recruitment," Edward suggested, once again giving Refined Threads Co. a boost.

Just like how the Yewford Town factory-capable of employing 2,000 seamstresses-was publicly known as a Prosper Stitch Group investment, but in name, it was still a Refined Threads Co. branch.

When Edward said he would support Refined Threads Co., he wasn't just saying empty words.

"You already let me borrow the name once. That's enough. The other factories won't carry the Refined Threads Co. brand. I never planned on expanding the company too much. I just want to focus on high-end products."
