Cleef was furious. He said, "Mr. Lorence, you are an elder. How can you say such outrageous things?"

Amos sneered. "Mr. Strauss, a bet naturally comes with conditions. Besides, my brother is excellent. What's wrong with finding him a wife?"

Manuel Lorence chimed in excitedly, "Amos is right. A bet is fair. You can propose your own terms too."
