Joe stepped in, balancing a silver platter with several slices of cheesecake arranged elegantly on top.

"Of course, madam." Joe exited the room.
Debra stared at the cheesecake, her mind whirring.
"What gis Juan playing? she thought.
She didn't believe he was helpless against the McKinney Group, and his actions today were uncharacteristically strange.
'Could it be that he has other plans?" In the afternoon, Juan emerged from the meeting room. His gaze fell on the untouched cheesecake, and he asked, "Is this bakery's cheesecake not to your liking?" "I used to enjoy them, but they don't appeal toanymore," Debra replied, her voice flat.

Then I realized I have nothing else to offer besides this." His deep eyes reflected sincerity. Debra saw no falsehood. If this was an act, he was extraordinarily convincing.
She looked away, breaking the intense eye contact. "Alright, since Putt that way, I'll accept these you shares."
She picked up the contract and added, "But I don't belleve in free lunches. I'll take this contract Back 5. and review it carefully. Is that acceptable?" "Of course," Juan agreed readily.
"Thanks," Debra said, sitting up. "If there's nothing else, I'll leave you to my your work. I'll give you my decision once I've confirmed the contract's details." "I'll have Joe give you a ride."
