Cupid's Arrow Hit On Me novel (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 205

Serenity agreed. “I’m only reminding you. Don’t worry too much about finding a job.”

Jasmine chimed in, “Look slowly and find a job that suits you. If you really can’t find one, why don’t you help me and Serenity out at the store? I’ll pay you well. Or… would you like to start your own business, Liberty?”

Liberty watched her son play. She sounded helpless as she said, “I don’t have that much capital to start my own business, and I don’t know what kind of business I should take up. It’s hard to do business in brick-and-mortar stores now.”

Serenity’s bookstore was right in front of Wiltspoon School, so their business was steady. If it was in a different location, it might not have survived.

The small shops at the entrance of Wiltspoon School had a high rental, so not everyone could afford them. It took some connections to rent a shop there. Serenity only managed to rent that place only because Jasmine’s family helped out.

“Liberty, why don’t I teach you to make some handicrafts? You can start an online business, so you can make money at home while taking care of Sonny. My online business is doing wonderfully now, and most of the products are pre-ordered. I have plenty of orders now that I’m kept busy every day.”

This month, her online business earned more money than the bookstore. Even when the bookstore ordered several sets of study materials for students this month, its profit could not match her online business’s.

Serenity felt that she was blessed.

Her online business had been there for a few years, and the business had always been steady. However, it suddenly became popular this month, and the reviews were great.

“I also plan to expand the operation of my online business. I don’t want to limit it to handicrafts and want to learn to make some hair accessories. I fancy those vintage hair accessories.”

Jasmine agreed with Serenity and felt that Serenity’s business idea would work.

Liberty smiled bitterly and said, “Seren, I’m not as creative as you are. I get a headache when I see the raw materials that you use to make handicrafts. This isn’t something anyone can learn even if they want to. It requires interest and creativity. Otherwise, the business won’t boom if there are no new products.”

Serenity was indisputably creative. She kept this online business going for several years and was skilled with making handicrafts. If she had a new product idea, she would spend a long time designing it and making prototypes. She would only succeed after making a few defects.

Serenity had been in this line of business and was aware that what her sister said was true. She sighed and said, “Well… Then take your time looking for a job. I’m sure you’ll be able to find one. If you can’t get into a big company, apply for smaller ones. Although you’ll make less, you’ll probably have less to do compared to a bigger company.

She had never worked in the corporate world and opened this bookstore with Jasmine after graduation. The online business started when she was twenty, and it had been five years since then.
