"And I know Jouri-she was my roommate back in college. She probably wouldn't swindle us." Donnie was less worried in contrast to Alda's hesitation. "The investment isn't that taxing, and we're not the only ones responsible anyway. But just watch out-don't let your guard down just because Jouri is your friend." "Don't worry about that. It's all business, and I won't let us lose on this." Since Alda had put it that way, Donnie nodded in approval.

I'll contact you then-let's exchange numbers for now." "Okay!"
