“Since you (Zoe) took over you have treated me with respect, and I have felt safe in the knowledge that both of us worked as a team. It has been hard for us both, but we ploughed on taking the rough with the smooth and somehow, we pulled it off and shortly I shall receive my compensation. It has been a pleasure dealing with whom under different circumstances I would have made a friend.”
