Meanwhile in the CEO's Office at the Cho Corporation

"President, your two o'clock appointment is here." Secretary Soo-Ah announced.

Daniel lifted his chin and nodded. He stood up from his seat and buttoned his coat to greet the person.

The door opened and a woman wearing a stylish business outfit came in, she was tall and she looked sophisticated in every step that she made.

Daniel's expression turned perplexed as to why the woman was in his office at that moment. He was expecting a client who just came from overseas… was this the client?

With delicate hands, she extended them in front of her to shake hands with Daniel. "Hello, mon Daniel. How have you been?" (*mon = my)

He furrowed his brows and ignored her hand, "What are you doing here, Ms. Qin?"

Refusing to call his ex-girlfriend by her first name, she felt ashamed but she kept her poise up and retracted her hand naturally.

"Are you not going to at least offer me a seat?" she pointed her hand to the sofa and smiled.

"No, you are not going to stay." Daniel tilted his head to call for his secretary but Melissa Qin interrupted him.

"I actually did come here for business." she sat on the sofa and placed her bag on the coffee table.

"What business could you possibly have with me? We are in no way associated with each other anymore."

"I want to open an art gallery in one of your business establishments."

Daniel chuckled with a sarcastic expression, "And why would you think that I would give you permission to do that?"

"Because it is a business deal… you are not going to lose."

"Tell me, why exactly would you do it in my territory? Your uncle is in the same business as I am. He also has a lot of spaces everywhere for each of your interests. Yet you choose mine? You sure know how to treasure family."

The corner of Melissa Qin's mouth curled up, "He's a busy man and he won't help me."

"That's absurd. He's very busy? So busy that he has a lot of time in his hands to release those articles about me? His priorities are clearly fûcked up."

"I didn't have anything to do with those articles, Daniel. I would never call you a womanizer."

Daniel laughed in amusement when he found her words disgusting. "Of course. You obviously know what falls into the same category since you are an unfaithful and self-entitled shrew."

Melissa felt like she was hit with a brick with the words that her ex-boyfriend threw at her. The words 'unfaithful and self-entitled shrew' kept ringing in her ear. She composed herself like she wasn't insulted, "I assure you that whatever my uncle did, I didn't have anything to do with it. I don't even know why he did that."

"That's very hard to believe. Regardless, Ms. Qin. I still don't have any reason to grant you want you are asking for. You may leave, the door is on your right." Daniel turned, he walked towards his desk but stopped in his tracks when Melissa spoke.

"I don't think you can turn down my proposal, Daniel." She stood up and walked up to him. "Haven't you been struggling in closing a deal with the Lee Group from Country C?"

Daniel looked at her, his eyes were fierce. "You have done your research, Ms. Qin."

She shrugged and continued, "I am actually very close with CEO Lee."

"Is he one of your boy toys?"

Melissa ignored Daniel's remark. "If you grant me that space, you will easily get your deal with the Lee Group. CEO Lee listens to me, I'm very sure that he will spare no effort to sign with you."

Daniel had been working for this deal for a couple of months. It was what kept him very busy for the past few weeks. He had exhausted a lot of resources just for this deal and it seemed like it would even be a fail. Melissa offered him this connection and all he had to do was to give her permission to use a space from one of his buildings?

It was a tempting offer, but will Daniel take it?

Just as he was about to answer, the door of his office opened. Liam and Samantha came in with some bags in their hands and smiles in their faces as they were laughing all the way to his office.

They stopped in their tracks and saw Daniel and Melissa standing face to face.

Samantha tilted her head as she looked at Daniel in the eye and her gaze shifted to the woman next to him.

Liam pursed his lips and attempted to explain their sudden arrival, "Oops, sorry bro. I didn't know that you had-"

Samantha, on the other hand, walked inside his office. She sauntered towards the sofa as if she owned the place ignoring the glare of Melissa Qin.

Sitting on the sofa like a Queen, she lifted her chin up, looked at the woman and with a smile on her face, she commented "Oh look. The cow is here."

(A/N: You speak like a Spanish cow - her French wasn't good. She was trying TOO hard to sound French.

Mon = my, so she was saying, "My Daniel". Close friends, family or Lovers would use this term)
