Larissa's Game of Thrones (Larissa) novel Chapter 450

[Wait, what? Starlight Media already has the rights to “Heaven’s Will”?]

[No way. When Mr. Lincoln wants a role for Livia, he gets it.]

[I have a source that says the rights for “Heaven’s Will” haven’t even been sold yet!]

[Ugh, Larissa is so annoying! First, she rides Mr. Lincoln’s coattails for popularity last night, then she pulls a publicity stunt with Leopold, and now she’s trying to steal Livia’s thunder. She’s everywhere, and I’m so sick of her!]

[Get Livia out of this mess. We don’t want her associated with Larissa’s bad luck!]

[Trying to compete with Livia for a role? Just wait until Mr. Lincoln crushes her!]

[Didn’t the publisher announce that Field of Lari is holding a small conference this weekend to meet with production companies? She’s supposed to be there in person to decide who gets the rights to her final book.]

[Ooh, where is it? I want to go and watch the drama unfold.]

[Me too! I want to see how Larissa plans to beat Gale Entertainment.]

[Source says it’s at that restaurant in Regal City, Paddy’s Home.]

...

The entire PR department at Starlight Media was on the verge of a collective meltdown. Their new boss was a magnet for controversy, and in a single day, she had managed to antagonize a legion of online trolls. The company’s official social media accounts were being bombarded with hate, and the team was working overtime just to keep the comment sections from turning into a complete cesspool.

The PR manager couldn’t believe it. He had never seen anyone simultaneously piss off three different fanbases before.

Just before closing time on Friday, Ursa compiled all the employee work summaries and emailed them to Larissa.

After everyone else had left, Larissa called Ursa into her office. “Ursa, this weekend, you will represent Starlight Media at the meeting for the rights sale of ‘Heaven’s Will’.”

Ursa stared at her, dumbfounded. “What? Me?”

She quickly recovered. “But, Ms. Judson, Field of Lari’s editor specifically requested that a senior executive with decision-making power attend. I… I don’t think I’m qualified.”

“Don’t worry about it,” Larissa said breezily. “You’ll be fine.”

Ursa was completely baffled. “Ms. Judson, this is a huge opportunity. Are you not going yourself? Is there something more important you have to do? I don’t understand. Getting the rights to ‘Heaven’s Will’ could be the key to Starlight Media’s survival against Gale Entertainment and the other big players.”
