When Derrick got back with Sandra and John, he asked John if he would move out of the house, since he had successfully signed some documents with the firm. "I appreciate your eagerness to leave, Derrick," John said, a small smile playing on his lips. "But I think you should wait a bit longer. The CEO has a few more things he wants to discuss with us, and he might want to invite us to tea. It would be rude to decline, and it could put our deal in jeopardy." Derrick felt deflated, and he knew that John was right. But he was so eager to put this all behind him, and he wanted to get on with his life.

The CEO began the conversation by asking about Derrick's background, and how he had become involved with John's company. Derrick felt nervous because he knew that he would be saying nothing but lies. Derrick continued telling lies and making up stories that never existed to match what he had told the CEO earlier."I have to say, when you first told me about your story, I was deeply touched," the CEO started, his eyes softening. "The courage and compassion you showed is truly admirable. And I'm happy to be able to help John's business in any way I can. It's the least I can do to help him." Derrick felt a rush of emotio
