Mr. Jones was slightly startled and turned around abruptly.
There before him was Tom who, just yesterday, had been giving them the cold shoulder but now approached him with a bright smile, while extending his hand. "Nice to meet you!"
Mr. Jones looked at him in a daze. "Mr. Davis?"
Tom said, "Did you bring the contract?"
Mr. Jones said, "...Yes, I did."
"Good, let me take a look at the contract. If everything is fine, let's sign the agreement today!"
Mr. Jones followed Tom into the office in a daze and still felt like he was dreaming when he walked out with the signed contract.
He returned home, still perplexed.
Mrs. Jones saw his expression and thought the deal hadn't gone through, so she immediately asked, "What happened? You weren't chased out by the receptionist, were you?"
Mr. Jones handed over the contract to her.
Mrs. Jones glanced at it and she, too, was stunned.
