Late Bloomer Hero SUCCESSFUL NEGOTIATION
Max approached Sebastian, his expression serious. "CEO, I think we should consider bringing in Ava for consultation."Sebastian raised an eyebrow. "Ava? Isn't she the one we rejected for the lab assistant position?" Sebastian remembered sending Luca to invite her later and she refused to show up. Ava was too rude.Max nodded. "Yes, sir. But I remember her application. She has experience working with a healer in the Bloodmoon pack, familiar with rare fruits and herbs."Sebastian's skepticism remained. "What could she possibly contribute to our toxicology team?"Max persisted. "Her unique background might be exactly what we need. We've hit a dead end with conventional approaches."But Sebastian refused, confident in his team's abilities.Tragedy struck again when Jax succumbed to the poison, leaving the pack devastated.Sebastian's resolve crumbled.

This was Marcus’ deeds, without doubt.“It is a combination of sorcery and poisoning, a specialty of the rogues. It also includes a dose of snake venom. That was why its effect was fast. You must have lost some members.” Pack members gasped in unison at Ava’s accurate diagnosis. They also marveled at Aria’s calm demeanor after the medicine that Ava put in her mouth.Ava's smile was a slow, sweet bloom. "The treatment requires a specific combination of herbs, CEO. I'll need access to your lab and resources to prepare it."Sebastian's nod was curt, his movements economical. "Max, escort Ava to the lab. Give her whatever she needs."As Ava rose from her seat, her movements were fluid, like a cat stretching in the sun. She glanced at Sebastian, her eyes sparkling with triumph.Ava's eyes never lef

Sebastian asked."You ordered Luca to monitor me?" Ava demanded.Sebastian's expression turned guarded."Yes, I did. For your protection."Ava's eyes narrowed. "Without telling me?"Sebastian's jaw clenched. "I didn't want to worry you."Ava's frustration boiled. "Worry me? You are controlling me."Sebastian's face softened.
