She initiated the contact; she evidently admired and probably desired the man; she tells him she's booked a hotel room at the Hilton.
Herman never asked to go to her room, even after he allegedly “upgraded” her to a suite.
I've seen it all in business and I can tell you she was looking for a Sugar Daddy and Herman wasn't buying into the situation.
I bet she was one HOTTIE in her day!
I had the same take on her story.
She really went out of her way to see him that night.
Of course, it’s never a good idea to go to dinner alone with someone in this type of situation.
