Chapter 1744


    The next day, when Maisie arrived at the publishingpany and handed over the revised manuscript


    to Cam,


    she felt a bit uneasy.


    Cam nced at it and praised her. "Much better thanst time. Keep it up!"


    "Really?" Maisie widened her eyes in disbelief.


    This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    Lately, the constant revisions had left her mentally exhausted, and the repeated rejections had


    significantly


    undermined her confidence. Cam saying it was better this time was almost unbelievable.


    "R-Really?" She was still skeptical. "You think it''s fine?"


    "There are still some minor details to polish." Cam smiled and showed her a few books on the


    computer, all of


    them regrs on the bestseller lists.


    "These are authors I helped promote when I was an editor," Cam exined, looking at her. "They


    were once


    unknown butter became very sessful, so you need to trust my judgment. I can sense market


    trends, heh.


    Follow my revision suggestions and it''ll be fine!"


    "Okay."


    "But..." Cam furrowed her brows with a wry smile. "I''ve never had an author like you before, one


    going through


    so many revisions."


    Maisie''s expression changed slightly.


    They were in the office, and other colleagues were around, so Cam''s words were exceptionally clear.


    Maisie felt


    like everyone''s gaze was stabbing her. Feeling a bit awkward, she nervously tugged at the hem of her


    clothes.


    "It''s okay, it''s okay!" Cam quickly reassured her. "Maybe good thingse to those who wait. After


    all, your book


    has been polished for so long that it will definitely turn out good!"


    Maisie forced a smile. Saying she wanted to catch up on some sleep, she turned and left the office.


    Instead of going home, she went to the coffee shop downstairs and ordered an iced Americano. The


    bitter taste


    that greeted her tongue made her mood even worse.


    Maisie was about to ask the waiter for some sugar when she overheard familiar voicesing from the


    adjacent


    table. She recognized the literary agents of several other authors of thepany, who were casually


    discussing


    something.


    "Has anything big happened in ourpany recently?"


    "It seems not... My big shot is preparing for a new book. How about you?"


    "Mine needs a break for a while to get inspired, so I''m quite free these days."


    "Cam is not free, though. She''s busy from morning till night."


    "Yeah! She has to deal with that author. Heard she was shoved onto her by Ms. Reyes?"


    Maisie''s heart lurched, and she held her breath, listening carefully.


    "Not exactly... The big financial supporter behind Maisie is Daniel. Daniel is Cam''s cousin. If she


    doesn''t edit for


    Maisie, who else will?"


    "It''s nice to have a financial supporter!" someone said with augh. "Heard that Cam has worked for


    other


    publishingpanies before and created several top-tier authors. All of them have written bestsellers!


    But since


    she came here, dealing with Maisie alone has been enough for her. Despite so many revisions, the


    manuscript still


    hasn''t passed!"


    "Let''s not say that." Another person lowered their voice. "After all, they''re family. In the end, Cam will


    have to call


    Maisie her cousin-inw!"


    The group chuckled, but Maisie''s heart felt battered and pockmarked with uncertainty.
