The receptionist blushed, but her eyes flickered with a hint of trouble before she firmed up.
“I’m sorry, sir, but that’s against the rules.”
She sounded like she was pleading with David.
David backed off with a chuckle. ‘Okay, okay, I won’t bother you. However, surely I can speak to the director, right?
“My girlfriend raves about your facials. I thought I’d surprise her with a gift card for her birthday.”

The receptionist eyed the well–dressed man before her his designer outfit and unique aura convincing her of his sincerity. “Sure thing. I’ll take you to the VIP room to wait, and I’ll get the director for you.”
Once inside the VIP room, David’s first move was to scan the area for any cameras. Satisfied, he messaged Walter, [We’re all good here.]
David sprawled on the sofa relaxedly as if he were lounging in his own living room, not the VIP suite of Sunny Glow Beauty Salon.
The director seldom met with clients herself, but the prospect of a lucrative deal had her hurrying over to

The moment David stepped through the door, he casually flicked his lighter and brought a cigarette to life, inhaling with a lazy ease. However, when the salon’s director made her entrance, David paused, caught off–guard.

The woman in front of him had been a knockout–porcelain skin, bold features, and a smile that could light up a room, her exotic allure untouched by any hint of makeup. She had been a walking billboard for the salon’s promise of natural beauty.
With impeccable manners and a soft smile playing on her lips, she greeted him, “Hello, sir. I’m the director of Sunny Glow Beauty Salon, What’s your name, if I may ask?”
“Zimmer,” he answered, snuffing out his cigarette in a gesture of respect. “So, you’re Celina?”
He had done his homework on Sunny Glow, and that included the woman in charge.
Celina Morris, 26, a doctorate holder fresh from overseas, was born into a dynasty of cosmetic wizards- she was a prodigy in her field.
David had been skeptical at first, a young woman her age running a salon had to be riding on her family’s coattails. However, seeing her in person, he could not help but feel a twinge of admiration.
Celina gave a small nod. I was told you’re looking to get a membership for your girlfriend’s treatments. Shall I walk you through our offerings?”
However, David raised a finger, cutting her off mid–sentence, “Hold on, let’s skip the sales pitch for a minute. I’m more concerned about how you handle privacy here. I don’t want my details–or hers–ending up all over the place after signing up.
