Chapter 471
Since she had sacrificed for Jessica, Yvonne was determined to let Jessica know about it. She said, “Because of you, I ended up the way that I am today.”
Upon hearing that, Jessica felt bad. Jessica asked, “In that case, would you like to join my company?”
However, Yvonne immediately rejected her and said, “Never mind. Your company is new, and you’re in dire need of money. If I join you now, you’re going to have to pay me a salary. It’s not worth it.” Jessica remained silent.
Yvonne asked curiously, “But why are you suddenly asking about merchandise?”
Jessica took a deep breath. From having no other help to being pregnant and bearing all the stress alone, everything felt overwhelming for Jessica.
Jessica immediately said, “It’s because I want to sell merchandise, too.”
“If that’s the case, I can look through Annalise’s showcase and see what they’re selling.”
Yvonne had a lot of time on her hands. She didn’t mind helping a friend out.
Feeling grateful, Jessica said, “Thank you.”
Yvonne said, “I can also write you a summary of all the products and other specifications in a document.”
Jessica exclaimed delightfully, “You’re amazing! Can you also help look for a manufacturer? Steven said he’ll help, but he’s Annalise’s ex-husband after all.
“I don’t trust him. Somehow, it feels like the manufacturer that you find will be better.”
Without skipping a beat, Yvonne said, “I’ll ask around for you.”
With that, Jessica finally felt more at peace. She said, “I’ll wait for your updates.”
After Yvonne hung up on the call, she immediately went to Eric. Lately, Yvonne hadn’t had much work to do, yet she continued to receive a high salary. She rather enjoyed her current lifestyle.
Yvonne stood outside Eric’s office for a while. When she couldn’t hear any noise coming from the room, she rang the doorbell.
“Come in,” Eric said through the doorbell.
Yvonne entered Eric’s office. Even though Eric wasn’t as handsome as Zane, Yvonne had to admit that Eric was quite good-looking, too. On top of that, Eric was very capable at work. With her gaze lowered, Yvonne asked, “May I know if you have the contact information of the merchandise manufacturer?”
“Yes,” said Eric. After all, Eric coordinated the merchandise production. If he denied it, Yvonne would know that he was lying. But Eric didn’t give Yvonne the contact info immediately, either.
Instead, Eric asked, “What are you going to do with their information?”
For some odd reason, Yvonne felt nervous. She said softly, “Jessica wants to sell merchandise for her comic, too. She asked me for the manufacturer’s contact information.” Hearing that, Eric took out a piece of paper from the drawer and handed it to Yvonne. He said, “Here.”
Yvonne took a glimpse at it and hurriedly said, “Thank you.”
“But you’re going to have to contact them yourself. I’m afraid I can’t help you.”
After all, Eric wouldn’t want to lose his job because of them. He remained professional and said, “If I work for you while I’m still getting paid by Mr. Huxham, I might receive a complaint.” Yvonne initially wanted Eric to help, but when she heard his words, she immediately changed her mind. Yvonne said, “I’ll do it myself, then.”
“Okay.”
Jessica sat on the couch and lightly caressed her belly. Suddenly, she felt pathetic. Other people would quietly rest at home during pregnancy, but things were different for Jessica. Instead, she became even busier than before she became pregnant.
Just then, Jessica’s phone rang. When Jessica saw that it was Yvonne, Jessica hurriedly picked up and asked, “How’s the progress?”
