A chill swept through Harvey as the situation dawned on him.

Could it really be that they'd just handed over such a valuable chance so easily?

"M-Mr. Ramsey, hang on a second. That's not what I meant," Harvey stammered, moving swiftly to place himself in front of Robin.

"Then let's do as you suggested-let Vera be the one to sign the contract."
