Putting away his phone, he was about to resume his work when a soft knock resounded at the door. Assuming it was room service, he went to open it.

Upon learning that Waylen was on a business trip to Hondrau, she had deliberately adjusted her schedule to stay at the same hotel as him.

Clad in a white shirt and black suit pants, he exuded the masculinity of a mature man.
With a nonchalant tone, he mocked, “How much do you charge, Miss Powell? If you don’t mind, many of my subordinates are single and in need of companionship.”

With trembling Lips, Ruth attempted to explain, “Mr. Fowler, I would never sell my body!”
Waylen asked with disdain, “Really? Then wrap yourself up and don’t knock on men’s doors in the middle of the night! Furthermore, if word of this gets out, your tiny company won’t survive for much Longer.”
After delivering that cutting remark, Waylen slammed the door shut.
