Story is told in male's viewpoint. His parents died 3 years ago. When he turns 18, he learns he owns 1% of factory plus 750K pounds
He is a 'townie' going somewhere. He is pursued by heiress to factory. Her mother is against their relationship.
I was reading about their Christmas Ball then lost the story.
Please help!
These two are very similar but it sound like
A Good Man by Marc Nobbs
or
Spirals by Lellan McLemore
Nice to be pointed to a couple of stories I'd not read before!
Interesting that both have that nearly identical scene at the wedding reception at the start too.
I believe Spirals was uploaded first - by 4½ years, Marc Nobbs occasionally reposts a revised version of an older story so I'm not sure.
