Inside the villa, "Nancy, why didn't you callwhen Susan and Mathew were giving you a hard time?" Listening to Lenard's complaints, Nancy calmly replied, "Did you close the deal with Potter?"
"Is closing a deal more important than you? If the mentor finds out I'm in for it," Lenard grumbled. Nancy kept her composure. "He won't find out if you don't tell, and I don't tell." "But..."
