“…Sure, let’s meet up,” replied Xavia.
Fast forward to half an hour later, Xavia found herself face to face with Bianca who looked as beautiful and gentle as she had previously been. While Xavia was pleased to be able to meet the wonderful woman again, she couldn’t help but ask, “Is something up, Miss Jourdaine? Why did you wish to meet me in such a hurry?”
Upon hearing that, Bianca—who had a waist-hugging, knee-length white dress that was inspired by Audrey Hepburn’s style—then sat next to Xavia before explaining, “Well, I heard from Chace that you love filming things. Since my self-established company needs more manpower, I was wondering if you’d be interested to join us.”
‘…Chace talked about her? That man who was as cold as ice? What led to her being brought up?’
Whatever the case was, Xavia awkwardly replied, “…Unfortunately, I’m only good at making handcraft… For context, I livestream during my free time. That aside, the quality of my videos isn’t really that good…”
“Oh please, making handicrafts is a good theme. That aside, I’ve watched your previous videos before calling you over, and I can say from the bottom of my heart that you’re doing quite well. For more context, I’m building a platform to promote our culture so that people from foreign countries get to learn more about us. Though I say that, my company lacks talented people like you…” explained Bianca.
Following that, Bianca placed a folder in Xavia’s hand while adding, “If you don’t mind joining a small start-up company, then do consider working for me. I’m confident that I’ll run the platform well! Speaking of which, that folder contains all of my company’s relevant information. Feel free to have a look.”
Flipping the thick folder open, Xavia saw just how detailed the planning programs and everything else was. It seemed that Bianca truly meant business. Even so…
Xavia eventually replied, “…While all this looks really good, I… can’t really work with you… After all, I’m not sure how long I’ll remain in Darlsbury.”
Once her agreement with Keith expired, she was leaving the city for good.
Smiling subtly in response, Bianca then asked, “Is it because of Jenna? Or Young Master Burton? Though I don’t know what grudges you have against them, believe me when I say that women should never give up on their dreams and careers for anything. We aren’t just accessories for men!”
“Just so you know, I was deeply hurt for several years back when I was still a full-time housewife for him… That aside, I see plenty of potential in you, and I’d rather not let your talents go to waste for no good reason. What more, since you’ve helped me before, I’d love to be proper friends with you. With all that said, again, I hope that you’ll seriously consider my offer…” added Bianca as a hint of pain flashed across her eyes.
