Baron Roan is someone who is extremely cautious, with a hint of arrogance.
Last time, she spent an entire day luring him into the trap. She chose the Pinewood Lounge because on his own turf, he would feel absolutely safe, thinking no one could touch him.

Sometimes, a gentle appearance can become a sharp weapon in one's hands.
Things seemed normal that night, even if he later checked the surveillance, he would at most see her flirting with him across the table, unable to detect anything unusual.
Despite Baron Roan's decisive and fierce demeanor now, he might still be clueless, trying to intimidate her into revealing her hand.
