"Do you think he would be willing to sign the deal, boss?" Ben asked from the passenger seat as Melanie sat in the back, reading through the documents that she had prepared for Peter.
"I don't know, Ben. I don't even know why he has agreed to meet us and invited us there." Melanie answered as she flipped a page in the file.
"Maybe he's just curious?" Ben suggested hopefully. He still couldn't believe Peter Berkus had agreed to meet them. The man was notoriously selective about who he entertained, and they weren't exactly on friendly terms after the fiasco regarding plagiarism.
Melanie snorted softly. "Peter wouldn't waste time on curiosity."
Ben opened his mouth to argue but thought better of it. He knew Melanie well enough to recognize when she was in no mood for idle chatter. Besides, she'd already warned him once not to disturb her, and judging by her focus on that file, she was serious.
