"Like I told you earlier, don't worry much about it, for in any problem there's a solution," Andrea reminded him.

"Alright, I'm worrying no more, but what do we do? What's the remedy?

"Good! That's a good question," he smiled. "Now, this is the remedy; I have a business study textbook—sorry, I mean textbooks—that I bought when I thought I would enroll in the course
