Her mother said, "I'm convinced she's nothing but a debt collector who's come to me to collect her debts! Either you give me two million bucks, or you get married obediently!"

Is there a specific 'company' known for loving 'misery fanfiction'?
There might not be a well - known, large - scale company that is publicly associated with loving misery fanfiction. But in the realm of smaller, more specialized fan communities, there could be groups or even small 'companies' (in a loose sense, like a group of fan - based creators or enthusiasts) that are into this type of fanfiction. For example, some independent online fanfiction platforms or small - scale media production groups that focus on more alternative or edgy content might be more likely to be interested in misery - themed fanfiction. But overall, it's not a common or widely - recognized association with a major company.
