The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 697

Zane shook his head and replied, "Nope."

With that, I made the call. "I heard your factory hasn't been doing well lately. Have you considered selling?"

The person on the other end responded firmly, "Sorry, but I believe that under my leadership, the company will pull through this rough patch. So, for now, I'm not considering it."

Since he wasn't interested, I didn't push. "Okay. If you ever change your mind, feel free to reach out."

The man took a deep breath. He clearly wasn't pleased, but he still responded politely, "Got it."

Once the conversation ended, Zane asked, "It wasn't successful?"

"Yeah." I didn't mind sharing my progress with him. Resting one hand casually on the side, I said, "But it's not a big deal."

Zane chuckled. "Need my help?"

I shook my head. "Nope. Even if you stepped in, it wouldn't make much difference. The person in charge of that company is just that kind of person. Unless the factory collapses, he'll never consider selling it."

Zane raised an eyebrow. "If you knew that, why contact him at all?"

Without hesitation, I replied, "Because when his factory does go under, he'll remember that someone was once interested in buying it.

"When that time comes, he'll reach out to me himself. By then, my movie will have been released, the merchandise and books will be selling like crazy, and I'll have plenty of money on hand."

Even if the merchandise didn't sell well, I could still use the millions of dollars I would be receiving next month as capital to make a significant profit. It was enough to buy that factory.
