Chapter 769 Never Again



Harmony Group.

Maya, dressed to impress and clicking her high heels, walked into the chairman's office. Wyatt was gloomily puffing on a cigarette, surrounded by somber reports. Harmony Group's situation was bleak; bankruptcy loomed if things didn't turn around soon. His only hope was the Golden Light Hill tourism project from TPO. Securing this could save Harmony Group from its dire straits.

Upon seeing Maya, Wyatt's instincts told him his savior had arrived a miracle to rescue his ailing company. He greeted her warmly, "Maya, finally! I've been waiting for you! Please, have a seat. Let's enjoy some fine wine. This is an exquisite bottle-you can't even get it for $30,000."

Maya took a sip of the wine Wyatt handed her. "Wyatt, you sure know how to enjoy life. This wine is excellent."

"No wine could compare to you, Maya! Since our last meeting, I haven't been able to stop thinking about you," Wyatt said, hoping to woo her again. Wyatt had been with many beautiful women, but Maya's allure was on a different level. He was eager to develop a lasting relationship with her, seeing it as a way to secure and stabilize Harmony Group's partnership with TPO.

Maya knew exactly what Wyatt was after, and the thought of their previous encounter made her feel sick. Her face turned icy, and she warned. "Wyatt, some things are better left in the past. If you bring it up again, I'll be out of here in an instant." Ebookex.com

Seeing her ready to leave, Wyatt panicked and quickly moved to stop her. "Maya, don't go! I was just joking. I didn't mean to offend you, I swear. And I promise, no more jokes like that-never again! I promise!" Ebookex.com

With Wyatt adequately subdued, Maya sat back down. Manipulating men was second nature to her; this was her specialty. And in her world, no man was beyond her control.

Maya didn't rush to speak; instead, she sipped her wine elegantly, showing no signs of urgency. This

move was carefully calculated to e

increase her dominance over Wyatt. After all, it was Wyatt who should be anxious, not Maya. Wyatt, on the brink of desperation, would do almost anything at this point.

Unable to bear the tension any longer, Wyatt asked, "Maya, you coming here must mean there's good news, right?"

"Whether it's good news or not depends on you," Maya replied cryptically, setting the trap and beckoning Wyatt to step right into it.
