168: Chapter 106: Got Promoted?

Early the next morning, Wayne had Philark drive Chris back to school and personally opened the car door for her as a gesture to her teacher.

“Students can be slow to understand, so please forgive any inconveniences caused.”

After finishing his howork last night, Wayne invited Chris to join the Detective Agency, which had just been renovated and was about to open.

It still lacked a reliable accountant.

When it cos to accounting, it’s necessary to find soone familiar.

Veronica and Vivi recomnded Chris to him, and he wondered if she would be interested in taking the position, drawing a salary each month.

It didn’t matter to him whether Veronica and Vivi had recomnded her or not.

What mattered was that their partnership was progressing very well, and Wayne didn’t want to separate them.

An equilateral triangle and an isosceles triangle both offer stability, missing one wouldn’t work!

Hearing that it was Veronica and Vivi who recomnded her, Chris happily agreed.

Her personality was such that she was always gentle, never refusing her friends’ requests.

If ever there was a conflict, she often considered her friends first.

Before the car left, Wayne gave Philark a look, and the latter understood imdiately.

On the way back to school, he would subtly sing praises of Master Wayne.

All things considered, he was an extrely elegant gentleman, a top choice for either dating or marriage.

After the car left, Wayne invited Vivi to walk with him to Comrcial Street’s Detective Agency.

Along the way, Wayne bought several newspapers and magazines to catch up on the latest news and gossip.

One piece of news caught his attention, by the end of September, the Windsor Cabinet Pri Minister was scheduled to visit Prussia to attend the summit of the four nations and sign an agreent regarding Prussia’s recovery of lost territories.

Wayne offered no comnt.

From a divine perspective, this was undoubtedly a foolish move, but given the current situation, stalling even montarily was a pragmatic compromise.

Seeing Wayne’s serious expression, Vivi leaned over to look at the newspaper.

Boring news, not interesting at all.

But soon, Wayne saw another piece of news in a magazine, one that was very important, even more so than the summit of the four nations.

[What exactly are stockings, and why has all of Lundan gone crazy for them?]

In the magazine, a female model clad in stockings shone brightly, her long, straight legs complented by the stockings, revealing an allure of countless styles.

Another smaller photo taken from the streets of Lundan showed won with less perfect figures wearing stockings, concealing leg imperfections, elevating their deanor and looking elegant and decent.

Even their facial attractiveness seed a few points higher.

Stockings had hit the market, and just as Wayne had predicted, they were fervently sought after from the mont of their release, receiving overwhelming positive reviews and quickly depleting the stock.

The production rate of the factories couldn’t keep up with the sales, and the price of stockings kept rising, almost adjusting daily.

In front of the store, lines ford, predominantly of won, but not lacking in n.

Stockings turned out to be a rave product, and among consurs, aside from complaints about the rapid price increase and scarce availability, there were no faults to speak of.

At the sa ti, the brand company selling the stockings, Slyphy Valentine, successfully penetrated Lundan’s fashion scene.

The magazine even featured the designer of the stockings.

While there were no photos, the na Wayne overnight beca a dear friend to the won of Lundan.

n felt the sa way, overcoming their initial misunderstanding.

They ca to believe that Wayne truly understood them.

Genius!

Stockings, as a consumable, were a revolutionary invention.

Well, a bit expensive!

“Tsk, it’s only been a short while, and how did they beco consumables already?

What is everyone thinking, really?

The morals of society are declining…”

Wayne murmured softly, refusing to be lumped in with those showing off their ideas.

He didn’t understand them at all – inventing stockings was ant to let won confidently wear beautiful dresses in sumr, without any ssy intentions.

Vivi leaned over, gazing at the model in the magazine with a frown and pouting, “The photos are deceiving, models have legs that are too long, ordinary people don’t look the sa in stockings, this is consur fraud.”

“That’s not fair to say.

You also have long legs, and I’m sure you would look nice in stockings.” Wayne knew exactly what Vivi wanted to hear, and he said it outright.

“Hehe.”

As expected, Vivi’s face lit up in an instant, tugging at Wayne, eager to go to Comrcial Street to buy stockings.

“No need to go through all that trouble, I have several pairs at ho that you can try.

If they don’t fit, I’ll have the factory send over a few more pairs.” Wayne endorsed Vivi’s desire for a little pampering.

“Eh, how co you know the factory?”

“Look at this.”

Wayne pointed to the designer’s na in the magazine, then pointed to himself.

Vivi’s mouth hung open in disbelief, “When did this happen?

How co you never ntioned it?

Are you really a fashion designer too?”

“I’m low-key.

I don’t want too many people to know.

It’s just my nature.

I’m not one to boast.

Like that ti with the movie, I never ntioned it either,” said Wayne, always careful to cultivate his personal image.

Had his ambitions not been so large, and had he not been playing a balancing act – and given that the hulking n were truly substantial – he would have already had his way with a giveaway girl like Vivi.

Vivi nodded repeatedly, her admiration for Wayne peaking in that mont.

A woman’s love for a man often includes a bit of admiration, which is why successful n can easily switch to beautiful girlfriends, sotis without even flaunting their wealth, just capitalizing on their personal image is enough.

Wayne patted Vivi’s head, and she instinctively hooked his arm, whispering, “Wayne, who do you think would look better in stockings, Chris or Veronica?

Both of them have pretty long legs.”

You’re probably not asking about the stockings, are you!
