If It's Not Me

Chapter 24 What Am I Thinking?

However, when he heard Janice's last sentence, he immediately asked, "You want in on the Sky Project as well?" "Of course." Janice nodded matter-of-factly. "This is a huge project on its own, but because of the Four Waves Chamber of Commerce in Goldshore, other companies dared not meddle in it at first.
