"No can do," Amelia immediately rejected. She turned to Matteo and said, "Remember the internship I was talking about the last time? I think Carlo here has great potential. He could do well at your company, and he's a quick learner."

Matteo's eyes raked over Carlo, seemingly scrutinizing every cell on that boy's body. He said nothing, merely nodding toward the direction of the car.
