Clyde's words sounded very confident. That's because he was trying to squeeze out the words so they could come out as if he really meant it. While in fact, he felt nervous.
Clyde gulped and looked at them all. The five people seemed to be thinking in silence.
Then, Wiley said. "Isn't this a great opportunity?"
His friends immediately turned to look at Wiley as soon as he said that. Albert and Rosie agreed with Wiley's opinion. However, Leon and Lola still felt that it was a bad idea.
"We're not quite ready for that yet," Leon said.
"But like Clyde said," Wiley glanced at Clyde for a few moments. "He will do everything. But uhh... are we going to get anything?"
Wiley asked, looking at Clyde. He also showed a sheepish smile. He seemed to be saying: 'I'm defending you. I hope you give us something worth it.'
"Of course." Understanding the meaning of that look, Clyde immediately answered firmly.
