“Dad, Mom, I don’t want to join the company. I want to open a clothing store with a friend. I’ll invest the money, and she’ll handle most of the design and operations.”
Her uncle’s family was already involved in the company, and her brother was there too. She didn’t want to squeeze herself into that space anymore.
Besides, it was her own family’s company. She didn’t understand management anyway. Even if she went, she would just be hanging around with nothing serious to do.
Before she came back, an old friend had mentioned opening a shop and asked if he wanted to invest.

Winona thought about it and felt it was doable.
She could help where she could, put in money, and still have plenty of free time for herself.
Austih had no objections. “Do what you’re interested in. As long as you want to do it, you can do anything.”
Winona felt a warmth in her chest.
He was always the first one to support her without conditions.
Her parents didn’t object either.
Only her father made one request.
“Tomorrow night, Mr. Grant is hosting a dinner. Go with Austin.“/
Winona immediately felt uneasy. It didn’t sound like a simple dinner. It probably had something to do with matchmaking.
Elijah was staying at a hotel. “Did you find anything yet? You can’t even hande something this simple?”
Sawyer let out a scoff. “Man, you just got off the plane two hours ago. How fast do you think this works? There are tons of people with the same name. Alright, I’ll get back to you the day after tomorrow. My family’s hosting a banquet tomorrow. Want to come?”
Elijah sounded annoyed. “No!”
He came here to chase after Winona. He had no interest in some random banquet.
“Come if you want, don’t if you don’t. Like I care.” Sawyer hung up.
He really didn’t know what Elijah came here for. All he did was give him a headache.
Winona didn’t wake up until noon. Her mother excitedly pulled her into the walk–in closet.
“Winona, this is the dress I picked for tomorrow night’s dinner. What do you think?”
Her mother had carefully chosen it and settled on the custom–made piece.

Another woman had wanted it too, but she gave that woman a handbag and secured the dress for her.
The Grant family and the Campbell family had been close for generations. Sawyer seemed like a good match to her.
In wealthy families, marriages were often arranged.

Of course, she hoped Winona would find someone she truly liked. However, true love was rare. Most marriages were about compromise.
If the other family was less wealthy, she worried about their character. They might only care about her daughter’s background.
If the other family was more powerful, she worried her daughter would be treated poorly.
So a match between equals felt the most suitable.
All she wanted was for Winona to live safely and happily.
