Jane Sampson had yet to speak when the man who had been eating slowly changed his expression and cut her off directly.
"No," he said, leaving no room for negotiation.
The refusal was unequivocal.
Jane Sampson panicked and moved a bit closer to James Black, "How about we try a different way? That is, I won't come home when I'm busy, and for these three months, I'll come back once for three days, all at once to make up for the time with you, ok? That means, instead of coming back once a month, I'll consolidate it into one trip, to cover the days of all three months at once."
Seeing that James Black remained silent with a cold face, Jane Sampson sat there stunned for a few seconds.
What kind of temperament is this?
He's that difficult to negotiate with?
Three months, one day each month, and three days all at once—it all adds up to three days, doesn't it?
Is there a difference?
Is it worth being this upset?
