161 Peace of mind is priceless

After Lexi reassured Wren Tanaka that the banquet was great and sincerely thanked him, they finally got down to business.

"Miss Yang, your offer is indeed tempting… however," Wren Tanaka retracted his gaze from the documents on his hand and raised them to see the woman across him. He continued,

"I am a man that believes when something is too good to be true—it's suspicious. I don't mean to offend but, I am curious Miss Yang; why am I the person who has the most benefit from this construction?" Wren Tanaka smiled. Unlike his verbal insinuations, his tone was rather calm which was harder for someone to discern if he was displeased or not.

Lexi didn't respond immediately as she calmly returned his smile. "No offense was taken. I know you have no time to waste so I will be frank—I am bribing you, Mr. Tanaka."
