"Miss Gloria …" Andre looked at Gloria, who walked out of the fitting room after a long while, but he didn't know what to say.
Blanche's expression was also rather disappointed.
"The dress is very beautiful. It's the most beautiful dress I've ever worn, and the size is also perfect, so I want to save it for an important occasion." Gloria smiled at the two of them.
Andre and Blanch's expressions eased slightly upon hearing this. They had worked together for two days and one night to create this dress, and they had initially thought that Gloria wouldn't like it, but it turned out that she wanted to wear it for an important occasion. As such, it was a tribute to their hard work during the past two days.
"Master Andre, Master Blanche, I've mentioned to you that I want to create a batch of dresses according to size. Your abilities are unquestionable, so I'd like to hire you as the chief tailors of the Suede. You'll be responsible for leading the tailors to create as many of these three dresses as possible within 20 days. " Gloria looked at the two of them, and continued, "You only need to make 10 of these dresses, and each dress has to be made in a different material and color. As for the other two dresses, you can create dresses of different sizes using the same color. "
"Well …" Andre and Blanche were both hesitant. Both of them had their own tailor shops in the Aden Square. Even though they weren't top-notch tailors, they were still quite reputable.
Although the title of the young mistress of the Moreton Family shone brightly, they were still somewhat reluctant and hesitant to give up their own tailor shop and become a tailor who only made clothes according to other people's blueprints. After all, this young mistress had only recently appeared in the public eye.
Geoffrey Moreton was renowned for his patriarchal tendencies, and if Cyril were the one who was speaking to them right now, then perhaps they would've agreed without any hesitation.
"I'll pay you more than what you paid for your own shops. Also, I'm now a candidate to inherit Family Moreton, so I'm on the same starting line as Cyril." Gloria looked at the two of them with a smile, and said, "As you know, the Moreton Family has a very good tradition. We will reward those who help us handsomely after they become capable enough."
Andre looked into Gloria's eyes, and finally nodded as he said, "Miss Hill of the Buffett Family Moreton has already become the true leader of the Buffett Family, so who can say that you won't be the next leader of Family Moreton? I agree to work for the Suede."
Blanche looked at Andre, and hesitated momentarily before also nodding. "I also agree to work for the Suede Textiles Shop."
Gloria nodded with a smile, and said, "Then I'll have to trouble the two of you. If you have any juniors or close friends, you can also recommend them to Blue Suede as long as they have solid abilities."
Mars stood to the side without saying a word. He looked at Gloria and nodded slightly, and he couldn't hide the gratification in his eyes.
Gloria, Andre, and Blanche discussed the quantity and size of the three dresses for a while, and then Andre and Blanche went to rest. They were ready to throw themselves into an even bigger workload.
"Miss, there are two things I need to tell you," Mars said to Gloria in the small office.
"Hmm?"
"The Blue Suede Textiles Shop's inventory has basically been cleared out. Due to the fact that it's in good condition, most of the fabrics won't be affected, so we won't have to worry about the source and cost of the fabrics for a very long time. The second thing is that in three days, the Aden Chamber of Commerce will be holding a mid-year banquet, and at that time, other than … "Mars explained clearly.
"Mars, thank you for your hard work." Gloria looked at Mars gratefully. She thought for a moment, and said, "I'll be attending the banquet in three days. This is a very important opportunity for our Suede. After that, I'm going to change the name of the Suede Textiles Shop to Suede. I want the shop's name to be engraved in a youthful font. I'm going to take a trip back to the Moreton Manor now, and I'll ask Grandfather to give the shop to me. "
"Miss, I believe in your judgment and choice." Mars lowered his head in a humble manner.
…
"Grandfather, that's all I want. If I can turn the losses of the Suede Textiles Shop into a profit within a month, then the shop will belong to me. If I fail, then I'll voluntarily give up the opportunity to become Grandfather's successor."
Gloria looked at Geoffrey with a serious expression as they stood in a dome-shaped pavilion in the Moreton Manor.
"You're that confident?" Geoffrey asked calmly as he walked around the pavilion with a small sprinkler in his hand. He was sprinkling water on the flowers and plants around the pavilion.
"If I can't even run a textiles shop to the best of my ability, then what right do I have to compete for the position of the head of Family Moreton?" Gloria retorted.
Geoffrey stopped and looked at Gloria's unflinching gaze. He smiled and said, "I can agree to your request. This VAM agreement will be implemented from now on."
…
Sunlight shone through the window onto the floor and onto Barbara's face, who was buried in a soft pillow and blanket.
"Mmm ~"
Babla stretched comfortably, and slowly opened her eyes, only to be met with the head of a wooden horse. She was stunned for a moment, and then lowered her head to look at the blanket covering her body, the pillow under her head, and the room that was filled with all kinds of toys.
"So … what happened yesterday wasn't a dream." Barbara was slightly disappointed. She looked at the blanket, which still smelled like fresh sunshine, and the pillow, which was so soft that she felt like she could sink her head into it. These things weren't there when she fell asleep yesterday.
"Don't tell me … that guy came into my room in the middle of the night? He even changed my pillow and blanket! " Barbara's face was filled with shame and anger. No man had ever seen her sleeping like this.
"But … this blanket and pillow are so warm! It's so comfortable! " Barbara hugged the blanket tightly and muttered to herself. She couldn't struggle at all.
"Alright, seeing that you're a good person, I won't argue with you about this matter." Barbara let go of her hands and stayed in the warm blanket for a while before getting up.
"Maybe I can try on my new clothes." Barbara's gaze turned to the black box on the small table.
