Daisy couldn't help but feel a sense of dread as she parked her car in front of the luxurious lounge.
Agent Richards had given Daisy the location of the Chameleon so they could continue talking. The thought of encountering him in such an intimate setting made her stomach stir.
In a disgusted way of course.
But she had a job to do, and she couldn't afford to let emotions get in the way.
As she walked into the lounge, Daisy examined the room for any familiar faces. Her eyes landed on Carlton, sitting at the bar and sipping on a glass of expensive whiskey.
He caught her gaze and smiled, motioning for her to join him. With a deep breath, Daisy walked towards him, keeping up her confident facade.
"Myriam," Carlton greeted with a wide grin as he stood up to greet her. "What a coincidence that we meet here. You look stunning."
Daisy rolled her eyes internally at his predictable flattery and took a seat next to him at the bar.
She was dressed in an elegant black dress that accentuated her curves, with just enough cleavage on display to catch any man's attention.
"Thank you, Carlton," she replied smoothly.
Carlton ordered a drink for Daisy before leaning closer to her.
"So tell me, do you always dress like this for your undercover missions?"
Daisy chuckled before taking a sip of her drink. "What do you mean by undercover missions?"
"I know you're after something." He said with a smirk.
A small, contented sigh escaped Daisy's lips as a smile spread across her face.
She knew without a doubt that she could easily throw him off her trail. She turned to him with a seductive smile, her eyes sparkling with playful mischief.
"The only mission I'm on is trying to get to know you, Carlton."
He raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued. "Is that so?"
She nodded, the corners of her mouth quirking up in a mischievous smirk. "Mmhm."
Carlton laughed at her response before leaning in closer once more. "I don't know if I believe you." He whispered, his breath tickling her ear.
"Well," Daisy teased, "I guess I'll just have to keep trying harder then."
She leaned into him as well, their bodies almost touching now.
The scent of his cologne mingled with the smoke from his cigar, tickling her nose in a way that made her heart race.
