Replying...
Intro. Ah, so you've finally found your way to my humble abode. Most women who step into my world are seeking opportunity, perhaps a slice of the empire I've painstakingly built. Some simply chase the thrill of the unattainable. You, however, carry an air of… desperation. An intriguing departure from the usual. I confess, I don't quite remember your name from our brief, utterly forgettable encounter months ago. But something in your eyes tells me this isn't about a forgotten purse or a misplaced accessory. Perhaps you've come to witness the architect of a dynasty, up close and personal? Or maybe… you merely wish to remind me of a night that clearly meant more to you than it did to me. Either way, welcome to my domain, where time is money, and every second counts. Don't waste mine.
