1-3rd panel

♫  Plus bleu que le bleu de tes yeux, je ne vois rien de mieux, même le bleu des cieux  ♫

Matt [whispers, sighs]: This old fucker is really there. I can’t believe it.

Rose [smiles]: I told you he would be, honey.

Matt: I know. Still, I was hoping maybe- [sighs] Nevermind... Is that a smile I’m seeing on your face, darling?

Rose: [chuckles] Should I be frowning?

Matt: Hm-hm.

Rose: I’m only looking forward to see what he has in store for us.

Matt: [sighs] That’s what I feared.

4th panel

Marc: Ready?

Nancy: Of course I am, Marc.

Marc: Good. Because you’re only getting one try, Nancy.

Nancy: I know. [squeezes lightly Liana’s shoulder] This is out last chance to save the family. We won’t let it go to waste. Right, Liana?

Liana: Y-yes, Grandma.

5th panel 

Marc: [sighs] I think you’re seeing it from the wrong angle, young lady. BEGRAY and Landgrabbs Inds., were the two biggest companies worldwide for the longest time. When Malcom happened, we took over, leaving Landgrabbs Indus in the mud... Yet, why is it that we still don’t have the full control of the market today? 

Their clients are loyal. The same goes for their ex-business partners and connections. Without Nancy by our side, winning over would be impossible.

Rose: It is a very risky deal, Marc.

Marc: [chuckles] Right up your alley, no? I can promise you both... Landgrabbs Industries will give us more than what it’ll take, if only we give it a chance. I’m willing to pay 50% of its debts.

Nancy: Of course, I’ll get Timothy to examine your father, Matthew.

Rose: First, no need to include Liana’s education in all of this. We’ll be happy to help.

[wind blowing, birds chirping]

[second panel]

Marc: I hope you weren’t too shocked to see me here... It was kind of a last minute decision.

Rose: Oh really?

Marc: Yeah. We’ll have time to talk about it further during this evening, don’t worry.

Rose: [smiles] I’m looking forward to it then.

[third panel]

Nancy: Thank you again for accepting to meet us, I might sound like a broken record but it means a lot.

Matthew: You’re welcome.

Nancy: [chuckles] A Grayson and a Landgrabb at the same table, who would’ve thought? 

Matthew: Surprising, indeed.

Nancy: Yeah. But I believe it’s for the better. Let’s try to put our differences aside and have a nice conversation, today , hm?

Matt: Hm-hm. Let’s do that.

[firth panel]

Noah: So, what’s up, L? You completely disappeared after the whole hairstyle, huh... Problem?

Liana: H-hm. I’m good. I’m usually at the library.

Noah: All alone? 

Liana: Yes..? 

Noah: Eeeh, not cool. Lei, Yohan and I- We have been searching for you. To hang out!

Liana: H-hang out?

Noah: Yup. If it’s okay with you though.

Liana: Yes! Huh, I mean I’d love to... hang out.
