Now, Mr. Morris was touched. To him, loneliness is an ailment that kills faster than most diseases. At that juncture, Jeff decided to chip into the matter as much as he could.
"The International Vice Chairman was not thinking of returning with him. As for the adoption, he had never given it a thought."
Then, the two adults' attention was focused on Jeff while he spoke, and Mr. Oliver was relieved to hear that there was no plan of returning with him. It made it easier for him to push his second request. Then, Mr. Morris spoke.
"The International Vice Chairman will be here tomorrow. You can discuss with him. Will that be all right by you?"
"That would be all right by me. I will wait until tomorrow, then."
"It's all right, Oliver."
"I beg to take my leave, Mr. Morris."
