After a moment's silence, Rosalie finally said, "I can't guarantee anything, but I'll ask."

"In that case, Ms. Young, I can't guarantee anything too. It seems we both need to work harder on this. I have something else to attend to, and I need to go. I hope to receive good news from you." With that, Geoffrey hung up.
