Victoria slid the folder across the table to Zinnia. "I've drafted a new version of the contract. I think this will suit both sides better. Take a look."
Zinnia's hands trembled slightly as she opened the folder. She scanned the pages, her breath catching. She had expected a list of issues, revisions, or maybe even a rejection. But as she read through, she realized it wasn't that at all.
The new draft wasn't a refusal; it was almost a gift. Victoria had changed a few terms, but it felt more like giving them free access to the cargo ships without demanding much in return. All Lily Oceanic wanted was for the films to succeed and to portray the company in a positive light.
Zinnia's eyes widened as she looked up at Victoria. Surprise and relief washed over her. She blinked, almost as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing. "This... this is too good," she said, still processing it. "But why free access?"
