A couple of hours into our discussion, Mrs. Dewey felt like she needed to give us a tour of their space just to see if we could recommend some improvements. Of course, what's passable in our eyes was totally subjective but that was one of the reasons developers, for example, do alpha and beta tests before releasing their product.
Besides, we've pretty much done around 70% of what I wanted to talk about but before we could even head for the door, we heard a knock from the other side.
Everyone thought that it'd be Sir Jacobs but the voice that entered our ears was completely different:
"Dear? Can I come in?"
I turned to Mrs. Dewey and mouthed, "Mr. Dewey?"
She nodded at me with a smile before she responded to her husband:
"It's your place, you can barge in any time you like!"
Yet the doorknob didn't even move:
"I know but… Wouldn't that be disrespectful? You have guests, right?"
