A Life-Changing Offer
Joe gaped in disbelief. ‘I… Are you…? Are you sure? I mean… I…’
‘No need to get so tongue-tied.’ Matthews smiled. ‘We’re making your chances a little better that’s all.’
Joe nodded slowly, taking the information in. ‘Ok, but why? Why us? What do you want in return?’
‘Only that if you get a management deal with one of these firms, you’ll use our studio to produce. It’s good publicity for our business to have a signed duo, you understand?’ Matthews explained matter-of-factly.
Yet again Joe nodded. Turning to Hope, he questioned. ‘What do you think of that? It sounds pretty reasonable to me.’
Hope swallowed, her brain still on overload. ‘I… I think that’s ok.’
Joe smiled. ‘Alright Mr Matthews. My partner and I would be happy to take you up on your offer.’
‘Glad to hear it.’ Matthews offered his hand which Joe firmly shook.
