<div> "Sir, the owner is on her way... Oh my god, I'm truly sorry," the assistant began to open the door to the office, but she was met with the sight of Elaine, who was already partially undressed while sitting on the office table.
 "Don't mind us, comeback when the owner is here with you," I used my abilities to send the assistant out of the room.
 "Yes sir ," She replied and bow her head before leaving.
 "Sorry for that. Now, where did we left off?" I asked Elaine playfully. She responded with a shy giggle , and we began kissing again.
 Her lips were smooth, and it tempted me to continue kissing her. The sensation of our saliva mingling and our tongues dancing together created an experience that would arouse any man.
 "I love you," she spoke after we took a momentary break from our passionate kiss.
 "I like you too," I replied.
 She seemed somewhat disappointed, but another round of kissing was all it took for her to forget her disappointment.
 It's not that I didn't like her; in fact, she held a significant place in my harem.
 However, when compared to Ayumi, she still had quite a way to go to reach the same level as her. So, saying "I love you" to her felt somewhat off. My feelings for her were genuine, but they didn't yet match the intensity of what I felt for Ayumi.

 </div> "Let's go meet the owner now," I whispered to her after our playful intimate time. Going all out at this moment seemed like a hassle, so we settled for just a quick fuck.
 "Okay," Elaine nodded and began fixing her dress. She also reapplied her makeup to look presentable. After all, she was still a woman, so her appearance was important to her.
 *KNOCK
 *KNOCK
 *KNOCK
 A knock on the door interrupted us.
 "Enter." I responded .
 The door slowly creaked open, and the first person I saw was the assistant.
 She was accompanied by a woman who possessed a classic, traditional kind of beauty. This woman had jet-black hair, small eyes, and a delicate, petite figure. While she was attractive, her beauty had a timeless, old-fashioned allure that didn't quite match up to Elaine's more striking and contemporary appeal.
 She was also dressed in a simple, classic formal outfit, not the flashy kind but the type commonly worn by older professional women.
 Observing her, she appeared to be older than Elaine, perhaps around 35 years of age. She exuded a mature presence, as if she might already have a son or daughter. Nevertheless, she still looked young for her age.
 "This is Ms. Tia." The assistant introduce her.
 "Ms. Tia, this is Mr. Zyden, the person interested in leasing this office." She added.
 "Hello, Mr. Zyden," she greeted. "My husband actually owns this building, but he's currently out of town. I came here on his behalf because I happened to be in the area." She bowed her head, and her mannerisms had a rather traditional quality to them.
 "I hope you don't mind if I represent him," she said, offering me a warm smile. It wasn't a seductive smile, but rather a formal, courteous one, meant to maintain a professional demeanor.
 "There's no issue with that," I replied.
 "So, do you like this place?" she inquired directly going to the business part.
 "I do, but I'd like to discuss something else," I redirected the conversation to the topic I had in mind.
 "Oh, what's that?" she inquired with raised eyebrows..
 "I was actually thinking that you might trust me and be interested in investing in my company," I said with confidence. This was the main reason for our meeting.
 "In fact, I believe you already have high level of trust in me," I added . I could not help but smile smugly as I waited for her to completely fall under my command.
 [Suggestion: Failed]
 'Wait, what?' I exclaimed in my thoughts. My suggestion had actually failed.
 I quickly used my "Mind Eye" to check her status. I wanted to figure out why my skill failed.
 ===========
 Name : Myeong Tia
 Age : 42 years old
 Overall Stats : 21
 Level (17)
 &lt;Attributes&gt;
 Strength: 1
 Agility: 2
 Stamina: 2
 Endurance: 1
 Intelligence: 9
 Charisma: 6

 Status: Neutral
 Suggestion Chance : 80+% (+/-)
 Hidden Status: None
 ===========
 "If her level is normal, why did my suggestion fail?" I got curious after examining her stats.
 A level 17 might be high for a woman, but it wasn't extraordinarily so. Even that Kanon girl couldn't resist my power, so how could she reject my suggestion? Was it just bad luck on my part?
 "You have a good sense of humor, Mr. Zyden," she chuckled, taking my words as a jest to avoid sounding impolite.
 But at that moment, I'm really frustrated by the failure of my power to influence her. It had become clear that my abilities did not work at all. And, I felt an urgent need to uncover the reasons, no matter what it took.
 "I want you to be mine!" I commanded
 [Suggestion: Failed]

 </div> "Mr. Zyden, I don't know why you're saying such things in front of me, but please maintain professionalism. I have a family!" her tone changed as she spoke, and she seemed offended by my remark.
 'What the hell, two in a row? Did I somehow lose my powers?'
 "If you're not serious about this meeting, then I'm leaving," she said in a frustrated manner.
 "Hold her for me," I used my mind-link to take control of Elaine and the assistant, and they immediately restrained her.
 "What are you doing?" She began to panic.
 "I'm going to sue you all for this...Let go of me !" She tried to scream, but Elaine covered her mouth under my control.
 As she found herself unable to move, I slowly walked towards her, observing her closely.
 'My power was working with the other two, so why is it not working on her?' I pondered.
 My mind raced with various possible explanations for how she was able to resist my power. As I contemplated the weird situation, suddenly, an idea flashed into my mind.
 "Don't tell me... "</div>
