The Date

Valerie pressed on to her forehead when she heard her assistant knock on the door. Valerie fixed her posture and ordered, "Come in."

Following that, the door opened. The assistant walked in, and behind him was Damien Burton. Valerie stood up from her seat in order to welcome him. The assistant left the room.

"What is it that you needed to urgently see me for, Mr. Burton?" asked Valerie.

"I am interested in the development of the new project, and I would like to invest in it," he offered.

"There's no need for it," Valerie responded, "and matters related to the project is quite private."

"Oh? I won't be asking for much details to invest. I trust in Ms. Valerie's abilities," he voiced out, "I simply want to make a profit."
