UNEDITED...

Chapter 63.

Ae Cha sighed softly as her secretary informed her of the arrival of the CEO of Shi'an Company. A few days ago, they scheduled a meeting to discuss a potential cooperation between Sage and Shi'an. The main focus was on integrating Sage's exquisite jewelry with Shi'an's fashion lines.

She had never met their CEO, but the man had insisted on meeting her one-on-one in her office after she declined several dinner invitations. She adjusted her posture, mentally preparing herself for the encounter.

"Let them in," she said. Her secretary nodded and left the room, returning shortly with the visitors.

In front of Ae Cha's desk stood Man Tae Hyun, his signature flirty smile firmly in place. Ae Cha fought the urge to roll her eyes. Behind him stood his own male secretary and Ae Cha's secretary.

"Have a seat," she offered politely, gesturing to the chairs in front of her desk. They both dismissed their secretaries, who quietly left the room, closing the door behind them.

Man Tae Hyun was the second uncle of Man Sung Ho. Unlike his older brother, Tae Hyun had no interest in vying for the family inheritance. Instead, he had started his own company from scratch while still in school, building it into a successful enterprise. Publicly, he played the role of the family's black sheep, which allowed him to operate his business under the radar for years.

"It's been a long time, Ae Cha," Tae Hyun said, his tone casual but with an undertone of genuine interest.

Ae Cha maintained her professional demeanor. "Indeed, Tae Hyun. What brings you to Sage today?"

Tae Hyun's smile widened slightly, sensing her guardedness. "I believe we have an opportunity to create something remarkable together. Shi'an's fashion and Sage's jewelry complement each other perfectly. Imagine our latest designs showcased with your exquisite pieces. It would be a collaboration that could set new trends."

Ae Cha nodded, considering his words. "I appreciate your interest in Sage's jewelry. However, before we discuss specifics, I need to understand your vision and how you see this partnership benefiting both our companies."

Tae Hyun leaned forward, his expression earnest. "My vision is simple: to blend the elegance of your jewelry with the innovation of our fashion line. Together, we can offer a complete luxury experience. It's about creating a synergy that elevates both our brands."

Ae Cha listened intently, weighing the potential benefits and risks. She had to admit, the idea had merit. "I see. Let's discuss the details of how you envision this collaboration unfolding."

As they delved into the specifics, Ae Cha couldn't help but notice the careful consideration Tae Hyun put into his proposals. Tae Hyun, a shrewd businessman, put a lot of thought into his proposals despite his flirty exterior. This was a side of him she rarely saw, and it intrigued her.

The meeting stretched on, filled with discussions of design integration, marketing strategies, and potential launch events. By the end, Ae Cha felt a sense of cautious optimism. This partnership could indeed be beneficial, provided they both remained committed to the shared vision.

"Thank you for your time, Tae Hyun," Ae Cha said as they wrapped up. "I'll review everything we've discussed and get back to you with our final decision."

Tae Hyun stood, extending his hand. "I look forward to hearing from you, Ae Cha. I'm confident we can make this work."

They shook hands, and for a brief moment, Ae Cha saw past the flirtatious exterior to the determined, ambitious man beneath. It was a reminder that there was often more to people than met the eye.
