The traders looked at each other and sighed heavily as one. A hand was raised in the air, and Adam saw Ricky, whose face was serious.
"Ricky... do you have any questions?" Adam asked, waving his hand toward Ekaterina, instructing her to pour him some wine.
Ricky stood up from the table, took a deep breath, and looked at Adam. "This contract... it has many sharp points and seems highly unfavorable for the side of the student and the parent, don't you think, Sir Adam? I've always admired your intelligence, and I hope you'll reconsider the conditions and make them more favorable for the parent's side."
A creak was heard, and this time, Avalon stood up. He first bowed his head and then expressed his opinion with a heavy heart. "I don't have the same concerns as Sir Ricky, but I still hope to get some explanation. May I?"
"Yes, of course. I'm listening attentively," Adam smiled, placing his hands behind his back and looking intently into Avalon's eyes.
