I can see his mind slowly moving as he's formulating his answer. I'm not sure why it's taking so long to answer.

"So you're saying what?"

"Add in the contract that he will pay for college and nursing school, then sign it."

I shrug. "Do you think Brent will pay me ten million and pay for my education?"

"What do you think?" Grandpa Delta starts eating. "Oh, and let Isley review since you don't have a lawyer."
