"Dean, is it? I like you!" The talk show host with a broad chin and gap teeth enthusiastically shook hands with Dean as he entered the room.
"Hello, Letterman~" Dean politely stood up to greet him.
"I really sympathize with what your company's been through, make sure to keep your powder dry for later~" David Letterman grinned at Dean, then turned and slapped Brad's shoulder. "Hey~ Brad, I'll take good care of your little buddy here~"
"Yeah~ That's exactly what I was going to say." Brad whispered, draping an arm over his shoulder. "You know, David, Byte Company might go public."
"Oh~" An exaggerated expression crossed David Letterman's face. "Great~"
"Mhm~" Brad nodded affirmatively.
"Let me just confirm once more," David Letterman pondered with a pinched chin, "what you just said, is it true?"
"I asked my Silicon Valley pals, and they said yes." Brad quietly shared a piece of information with David.
