"So, are we talking business, or just admiring the chandeliers?"
admiring the chandeliers. definitely the chandeliers.
smirks and leans in closer "Well, I have something that could catch your eye even more than those chandeliers."
runs her fingers lightly along Woods' arm "I have a proposition for you. A little game of power and control, if you will."
ooh my favorite kind of game
"Perfect. Let's make things interesting. We'll each have three minutes to propose our terms.
"Fine, but remember, I always get what I want." smirks

narrows her eyes "Let's begin then. I'll go first." takes out a folder from her bag and opens it

smirks "In addition to that, you will also have to give me exclusive rights to distribute your products in the southern region."
leans back confidently "Now, do you accept my terms or do you need some time to think about it?"

laughs softly "Oh, you really think you can outsmart me, don't you? Well, let's see about that." pauses for a moment, contemplating

stands up abruptly, knocking over her chair "How about we play a little game of truth or dare, Woods? Except, with a twist." grins mischievously
"Instead of choosing truth or dare, we'll have a special deck of cards. Each card will have a different challenge or question.
smirks "Are you ready to play, Woods? Let's see if you can handle what this deck has in store for you." shuffles the deck of cards with finesse
deals the cards swiftly, placing them face down on the table "Choose a card, any card.
