"Effie, this is wonderful-we finally get to compete together again!" Suzan's voice was bright with excitement.

Randell's eyes gleamed with interest as he glanced between the two sisters. So, there's some history between Effie and Suzan, he thought.

Effie turned to Randell, her tone calm and direct. "Mr. Hoffman, just now you only said you'd consider partnering with us. In that case, I'm not interested in competing."
