The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 415

Zane never knew such weird people existed.

Dumbfounded, Zane said, "She is the one at fault. How can she have the audacity to slander Anna and me in the comics? And now, she wants me to release merchandise for her? Do I look like an easy target?"

Eric asked, "Should I reject Yvonne and tell her we can't do that right now?"

"When Jessica gets exposed later, her supporters who bought the merchandise will feel betrayed. If we release the merchandise, and if people ask for a refund… Wouldn't that mean we'll have to bear all the losses?" Zane said calmly.

Eric said, "You're right. I'll let Yvonne know, then."

"Alright."

…

After Eric left Zane's office, he went to Yvonne, who had been waiting in the hallway.

Eric said, "Your comic has published too few chapters; there aren't many readers either. If we release merchandise now, the company might suffer losses."

Of course, Eric couldn't tell Yvonne what Zane actually said. Otherwise, Yvonne and Jessica would cause a scene at the company. As such, Eric tried to be less direct about it.

Without much thought, Yvonne asked, "But didn't Annalise's comic start selling merchandise not too long after publishing?"

Eric answered formally, "That is because even if she suffered losses, Mr. Huxham could support her. But what about you?"

That left Yvonne speechless.

Eric continued, saying, "Also, even though her comics were not statistically the best-performing, it was the most stable. Right now, Jessica's comic cannot measure up to hers. But of course, if you're willing to invest some money to support Jessica's comic…

"The company can consider releasing some merchandise for her, too. What do you think?"

Yvonne considered it carefully. After analyzing Annalise's comic and merchandise, she noticed that the company invested a lot of money in them, but there wasn't much profit.
