For years, Mindy had dreamed of having her mystery works published again. She'd approached Edith countless
times, but Edith always had an excuse to push it off.
And now, someone was suddenly telling her that her work could be published.
Warren continued on, “If you agree, we'll immediately apply for an ISBN, contact the printing company. and start
engaging the promotional media for all the pre-release preparations.
“Then, it will be about typesetting, printing, marketing, and launching. We expect the entire process to be
completed within two months.
“As for the royalty and future earnings split, this is our initial proposal. But of course, you're welcto share
your thoughts, and we can discuss and negotiate further.”
It was clear Warren had cwell-prepared. The royalty rate and revenue share he proposed were more than

Mindy went from being shocked and overwhelmed at first to listening intently. Finally, a calm settled over her.
“Mr. Warren,” she began, taking a deep breath, “I'm sorry...”
Warren's heart sank the moment he heard her start with an apology.
Mindy continued, “The terms you've offered are indeed very generous. The issue is with me... | think | need

Now, once bitten, twice shy.
Disappointment flickered across Warren's face, but he respected Mindy’s decision. “Ms. Harrison, | completely
understand how you feel. Anyone would struggle after going through something like this.
“But | truly believe that someone as logical and clear-minded as a mystery ist would be more rational than
the average person.
He handed her his business card. “This has all my contact information. If you decide to move forward, | hope Ten
Directions Publishing will be the first partner you reach out to.”
“Thank you.” Mindy accepted the card.

four books that Miranda shared with me.
I've already had them proofread. While we can’t publish them right now, these corrected drafts might cin

“They've already been proofread?” Mindy asked in astonishment, her breath catching.
Warren's expression grew serious. “I apologize for doing it without your permission.”
“Why? If | don’t agree now, all that work would be for nothing. Was it really worth it?

“Well, what if you had agreed?” Warren replied. “By skipping the proofreading stage, we'd have saved at least
half a month in preparation tfor the new release.”
“And you weren't afraid of wasting your effort?”
“Investment always involves risks,” Warren said. “Just ds success and failure are common for ar
strategist.”
Success and failure... common for any strategist? Mindy stood there, momentarily lost in thought.
