Gloria, who had been watching silently at the side, stepped forward gradually with a smile and said to Rachel, "I have seen Miss Rachel's sewing skills. They have already reached the level of a master. I have specially come to sign a new contract with her today. Furthermore, I have great hopes for her. I believe she could have a very respectable life with her own hard work and skills."
The surroundings quieted down immediately. Everybody was looking at Gloria in disbelief.
All the masters in the factory were old masters with at least 20 years of skills. Even if they were not famous master tailors, their skills were impeccable.
But Rachel was just over 20 years of age, and she had only done some sewing-the-corners work previously. Although her skills were slightly better than the usual female workers', she simply wasn't senior enough to become a master now, right?
