Chapter 103: Power and Love (8)
“The dormitory building looks like it will be finished by the week after next, but the classroom building will still take more time. The progress itself is decent, but I’m not sure we can meet the deadline.”
“Please, maintain the current pace. We can consider delaying the start date of lessons, but let’s see how it progresses for now.”
Aiselin was sitting at her desk, twirling her hair, with a pile of account books, architectural blueprints, and workers’ reports.
The next cash acquisition date, the state of construction, details of the young ladies who would arrive for lessons, the hiring of assistant instructors, the mansion’s finances… She was deeply immersed in all that vast content, looking in every way like a businesswoman.
“…”
Outwardly, Pheline played the role of baroness, but she couldn’t even read an account book, while Aiselin seemed to have already taken full control of the finances.
‘Why can’t this person just be the baroness?’
Pheline was sweating in a corner of the office, dressed in an outfit that didn’t suit her at all.
Despite the hot weather, Aiselin was completely absorbed in the work of the training center, going back and forth between the construction site and the office without concern.
