Proper Way to Bribe
Dassen didn't really say anything just listened and he preferred that. He also found it humorous because people tended to get nervous when you didn't say things. Like it was a bad sign, but he didn't disagree with much of what they said. Adeline was very aware of the budget and how much she needed to do this for. The construction and equipment set up he understood, but some was beyond him. This wasn't his field of expertise.
They had gone over the entire facility and now were just standing in the office here talking about a few things, but they handed the plans to Adeline. Then they went over contract papers. Incredibly boring things, but stuff that had to be done. Dassen was glad he didn't have anything else of importance today. This went longer than he thought. Though he really could have just come to sign, and he was on his phone for part of it dealing with a few things.
