While I was panicking and at a loss for words, a ding sounded, followed by the opening of the elevator doors. Taking advantage of Michael’s inattention, I swiftly pushed him away.

Michael glowered at me in chagrin when he had gathered his wits about him, his gaze brimming with frustration. Nonetheless, he hadn’t the time to teach me a lesson right then since the representative from Benyx Corporation was already waiting in the conference room.

As he strode past me, he shot me a glare before entering the conference room ahead of me. Following behind him, I walked in as well.

The representative was a young and beautiful woman who was dressed fashionably. The moment she caught sight of Michael, her gaze remained riveted on him.

“You’re finally here, Mr. Shaw! I’ve been waiting for ages.”

At once, the woman walked up to Michael and extended a hand to him.

Arching a brow slightly, Michael shook her hand before taking his seat at the head of the table.

“You’re indeed young and beautiful, Ms. Linwood.” After complimenting her with a faint smile on his face, Michael took the contract from me and pushed it over to her.

“Here’s the contract. Let’s sign it right away if there aren’t any problems.”

Jane Linwood flipped open the contract. After roughly scanning through it, she looked back at Michael. “The contents of the contract are fine, but isn’t the price rather exorbitant? It’s just a small-scale advertisement, yet it costs this much?”

It was more than apparent that she wasn’t quite satisfied with the price proposed by our company.

“If it’s not to your satisfaction, you can collaborate with other companies. After all, my advertising company has endless projects with far higher prices than this.”

Michael stared at her impassionately, his voice firm without any room for negotiation.
