Yara King's attention was also drawn to the conversation.
"Did you see the car downstairs?"
"Yes, yes! A custom-made, limited edition Rolls-Royce Phantom! So domineering! If I could ride in such a luxury car, I would be over the moon!"
"Hey, have you heard? Apparently, a very wealthy person who takes a fancy to our manga club has invested ten million dollars in us. Ten million! That's an astronomical figure for our little club!" said Employee A.
"Do you know which work it is?"
"I think it's a romantic love story. But isn't our Demon Manga Club mostly focused on creating romantic stories? Anyway, when I first came in, I saw Editor-in-Chief Davis grinning from ear to ear, bowing and scraping to this sudden big investor. I didn't see the investor's face, but just by looking at the silhouette, I could tell it's a dazzlingly wealthy person!"
"Wow, who could that be? Besides my dad's investment, there's no other wealthy person investing in our club. Are you trying to deceive someone with this dazzling person?"
With an arrogant and ignorant attitude, Yara King squeezed her way through the crowd to get a better view. In this tiny manga club, who could steal her father's thunder?
Seeing Yara King approaching, everyone stopped talking.
Taking advantage of her status in the manga club, Yara King snorted and went to the door of Editor-in-Chief Davis' office to eavesdrop, wearing high-heeled shoes.

Editor-in-Chief's Office
"President Griffith honoring us with your visit is really flattering! I didn't expect that President Griffith would also be interested in manga. It's truly our club's honor!"
William Griffith just sat at one end of the room, his eyes indifferently looking over the manga club materials offered by Editor-in-Chief Davis, which also included detailed staff information.
He glanced at the information from the Editor-in-Chief, Chief Editor, down to the staff. However, when he turned to the page with Cherish Turner's information, his mouth curved into a smile.
Editor-in-Chief Davis was a clever man. Seeing William Griffith dwelling on Cherish Turner's information, he couldn't help but wonder:
Was the reason the distinguished princeling took notice of their small manga club because of Cherish Turner, who hasn't even become a regular employee yet?
What was her relationship with the wealthy heir…?
"President Griffith, the young girl you're looking at is Cherish Turner. She's still in her probation period, but she's one of our club's most capable employees. The manga she draws is so vivid and engaging!"
Heh, "vivid and engaging" indeed!
He actually called this explicit erotic manga "vivid and engaging"!
"Slap!" William Griffith closed the employee information, startling Editor-in-Chief Davis with the sound.
Did he say the wrong thing? Did he pat the horse's leg instead of its back?
Could it be that President Griffith's interest in Cherish Turner wasn't because they were friends, but because she had offended the big boss?
"Cherish Turner, hmm, truly capable!" William Griffith mentioned her briefly and vaguely, leaving Editor-in-Chief Davis unable to discern his intentions. At this moment, Thomas Harrison approached Editor-in-Chief Davis and handed him a piece of paper.
"Miss Turner, a staff member of your esteemed club, and our boss, have a small dispute. I won't elaborate on the details, but she must take responsibility for the harm caused to our boss. From now on, every month, please deduct a portion of her salary to repay the Griffith family. Of course, this won't affect the Griffith family's investment in your esteemed club."
Heh, so it turns out Cherish Turner was in debt!
