Chapter 80

Jeanie’s eyes flashed with a hint of jealousy. She’s an ordinary woman, yet her figure is better than minet she thought.

I wonder why the two of you invited me here today? Suzanne asked, feigning ignorance

“Ms. Heywood is a smart person. You should know without me explaining, right?” Jeanie said with a smile. “Today’s n gone viral across the internet. Ms. Heywood, you’re somewhat in the industry. Don’t tell me you don’t know

Suzanne smiled faintly and sat up straight. “Of course, I know. However, I don’t know which media outlet spread such ridiculous rumor,” she said. Selena’s face turned pale upon hearing the word “ridiculous”

“How could it be ridiculous?” Jeane chuckled and said, “Isn’t River our Selena??

Suzanne looked up at her, raised her brows slightly, and said, “I don’t understand what you mean?

Jeanie placed a bank card on the table and said. “There’s three million dollars in it. Do you understand now?”

Three million dollars! Suzanne raised her eyebrows slightly. She did not expect Jeanie to be so generous, offering three million dollars directly.

However, the name, “River“, was worth far more than just three million dollars. She did not touch the card, instead, she smiled faintly as she looked at the two women before her eyes and asked bluntly, “Are you trying to bribe me?”

“Ms. Heywood, don’t make it sound so unpleasant,” Jeanie tapped the table and said. “What do you mean by bribe? This is a collaboration, one that benefits both parties. Three million dollars! Do you know the number of years you’ll have to work for someone to earn that much? Now, you have such a great opportunity right before you. Are you really going to refuse

It’s certainly tempting but… Suzanne thought. “Miss Gibbs, you may not be aware of our author’s copyright value. The adaptation rights for “River‘ were sold to Harvest Films & TV for a total of 15 million dollars. In addition, our author has earned a substantial amount during serialization through comic adaptations, audiobooks, and other formats. In total, our author has made nearly…”

Suzanne paused, then stated an amount, “30 million dollars?” And that was just a rough estimate. She added. “I almost forgot to mention, “Thrilling Suspense‘ will likely be made into a movie in the future. The box office should be impressive, don’t you think so?

“Therefore, Miss Gibbs, your three million dollars isn’t enough for me to consider.”

at least done your homework on how successful River really is. Even 30 million dollars would be too little, Suzanne
