Yunice exhaled sharply, pressing her fingers against her temples before sinking into her chair.

In the five years since its founding, Saunderss Hospital had expanded beyond what its aging campus could hold. Patient numbers grew by the day, and space was no longer enough.

A year ago she’d begun planning for expansion. Wyatt had secured the permits, and the project had gone to bid.

Naturally, Wyatt insisted on keeping it “in the family,” throwing the full weight of Cooper Corp behind the tender and winning the contract outright.

Thanks to that bid, he now found excuses to call her ten times a day under the guise of “coordination.” Maddening.

And right on cue–just as she finished one urgent matter and took a breath–her phone buzzed with his video call.

Wyatt ignored her completely, turning back to his phone, his voice softening. “Don’t be mad. From now on, no more meetings with female clients. That’s my rule.”

Yunice snorted. “Don’t pin me with that kind of reputation. But since you’re a free man, you should enjoy life.”

Wyatt chuckled. “Really angry? Then I’ll reflect on my mistakes.”
