Jessica hadn''t realized that heric was gaining traction among the public until she checked her phone. The readers had clicked on heric out of curiosity, only to find that it was just as intriguing and high-quality as promoted. As such, her work started to be popr.


    A satisfied smile curved Jessica''s lips. She checked the showcase and saw that merchandise sales were increasing rapidly. The person in charge had made good on their word, after all. Most of the readers who had clicked on heric were not bots but real-life people. Jessica brimmed with pride. Her work gained immense poprity even though she had invested only a million dors into marketing.


    She could already taste the sess that a two or three-million-dor investment would bring her. If she invested 10 million dors into marketing, would herics be a hit on mainstream media? Just thinking about the inte going crazy over herics thrilled her, though she willed herself to stayposed.


    She made a rough sales estimate after reviewing the merchandise sales numbers and decided to ce new orders with the manufacturers.


    The manufacturers initially believed Jessica was a small-time coborator. Upon seeing herrge order, they proceeded to give her discounts. She did the math in her head and realized her profits would be astounding if she did not have to split them with Steven. Taking a deep breath, Jessica tried to keep her excitement in check as she thanked the manufacturers. After replying to all the messages, she fell into deep thought.


    She couldn''t handle the orders and shipping now that herics and merchandise were gaining poprity. Hiring someone to handle the logistics was a matter of practicality.


    Her head began to throb. She was so used to relying on men to offer her solutions.


    In the past, she only had to ask, and men would rush to her aid. But now, she was on her own. And yet, despite her exhaustion, she felt an inexplicable sense of aplishment.


    The merchandise was selling like hotcakes, with thousands of dolls being sold in the blink of an eye. Coupled with the other merchandise in the showcase, she had sold over a million of them.


    As things were, handling the orders could not be a one-person job. Not that Jessica had any idea how many staffers she should hire to handle the logistics. Nheless, she decided to hire more part-timers,


    just to be safe.


    She nned to recruit a hundred-member team. She spoke to the manufacturers, and they agreed to let her logistics team work out of a vacant room. After that, she turned on herptop and put up a hiring ad.


    Thankfully, she offered a high enough sry that job applications piled up quickly.


    Jessica heaved a sigh after sorting out everything. She calcted the costs on her part and realized she would still be making a pretty penny after paying for her logistics team. She stood to earn more than Annalise.


    That alone cheered her up, and the exhaustion vanished from her bones.


    She lounged on the couch and picked up he phone to send Zane a text: "I used the money Steven gave me and took charge of my own


    work. I called up the marketing


    légistics team. I handled everything myself. Amazing, aren''t I?"
