Mr. Mitchell’s face softened with a hint of amusement, and there was a trace of pride in the way he looked at me. I knew this was a rare opportunity, but my ability would determine whether I could make the most of it.
“Evelyn, don’t get too excited just yet. Yes, I’m willing to introduce you, but Mr. Odom is even more eccentric than I am, Getting him on board won’t be easy”
