Chapter 65 Wait For Me to Ask
Elsa said, “Jane, how could you do this to me? I'm a designer! What if my hand gets injured? How am I supposed to work?”
She didn't hesitate to blaine me.
Jack rushed to bring over the burn cream and glared at me with fury. "Elsa was only trying to be kind by making you tea, and this is how you doesn't deserve to be a part of the Brown
Tamily!"
Jack's words were harsh. Dad was about to scold him, but had already grabbed my bag and stood up, glaring coldly at both Jack and Elsa
"She spilled the tea herself. What does it have to do with me? If you want to blame someone, blame
her own crooked intentions to harm others, which ended up backfiring on her!"
Ignoring Jack's livid expression, I turned and walked away.
Over the next few days, my investments made a substantial profit, and I reinvested the money into the brand. However, finding a
location for the headquarters had become a headache.
I had visited seven or eight potential sites, but none of
them met my expectations. Levi was about to return to the country, and if ! didn't secure a location soon, how could the brand grow domesti
“If you don't eat now, the pasta is going to get cold.” Eric's deep voice pulled me
back from my thoughts, and I lowered my head in embarrassment.
"I'm sorry. I kind of spaced out for a moment."
He set down his fork, propping his chin with one hand. His dark, penetrating gaze was studying
me as if he could see right
through me.
I cleared my throat. “What's wrong?”
He suddenly frowned. "That should be my question. You've been distracted these past few days. Did something happen?"
I didn't want to tell him about the location issue. I knew that once he found out, he would help me, and the more favors I owed him, the hard would be to repay them all. Plus, this wasn't something that could be resolved quickly, and I didn't want to
burden him.
But his gaze was intense as if he wouldn't let it go until I gave him answer.
Under the pressure, I relented and explained the situation.
He wasn't surprised at all. In fact, he seemned completely unfazed, almost as if he had already known about it.
“Send me the requirements. I'll have someone find the right locations and send them to
you for approval tomorrow."
I let out a sigh of relief, but a strange feeling stirred in me. I had been searching for so long, yet he made it sound like he could find the perfe
And from the way he acted, it seemed like he had already chosen a site and had just been waiting for me to ask him for help.
I didn't dwell on it further. I thanked him sincerely and promised to repay him for
his help. But he didn't seem to care about that.
The next morning, he sent me photos of the sites.
I was stunned at how fast and efficient he was. Out of the several sites he sent, one immediately stood out to me.
"How much is the rent for this site per year?" After a moment of thought, I sent the message.
He replied almost instantly. "It's free,"
I was stunned.
Did I hit the jackpot or something? I didn't believe it.
After a moment of hesitation, 1, I called him. “I know you want to help me, but renting a site isn't a simple task. Eric, you really Chapter 65 Wait For Me to Ack
don't need to go out of your way for me. Let's just keep things professional.”
I could hear him shuffling through papers in the background, but his voice was calm, carrying a hint of warmth rather than impatience.
