Steven closed his eyes. He still had a chance. The investigation results weren't the whole story-did Zane also have a past lover? If she reappeared in front of him, he would ditch Annalise.
When that happened, Steven would show up and steal Annalise's heart. So what he needed to do now was to make occasional appearances in front of Annalise so that she remembered his existence. Although Steven had thought of this scenamultiple times, he never found it bothersome. He knew very well that without this thought to motivate him, he likely wouldn't have the strength to keep going. Steven took a deep breath. The problem was that Annalise really disliked him. How could he interact with her without causing any trouble? Just then, an idea struck him. He pulled out his phone and dialed Jessica's number. It was actually quite simple. Hadn't Steven already signed the rights to Jessica's comic? What he needed to do next was promote her work. Steven figured he could take steach day to visit Huxham Corporation and give Annalise updates on Jessica's projects. This way, not only would Annalise notice him, but she would also see how well he was supporting Jessica.

during their biggest investment, it only amounted to a few hundred thousand dollars at most nowhere near the figure Steven was suggesting. Thus, Jessica was surprised that Steven was willing to spend so much money. She bit her lip, feeling torn inside.
On the one hand, she thought that if
Steven casually mentioned such a high figure, then with a little eT persuasion, he would likely be willing to offer even more. But on the other hand, she worried that if she pushed too hard, he might not even be Willing to give her ten million dollars.
