Felicity King, la nueva y dinámica ejecutiva de los Lovat, tiene mucho interés en introducir los perfumes Lovat en los mejores almacenes de Inglaterra. Acaba de telefonear a Harrods. Sam Lovat: Did you telephone Harrods? Felicity: Yes. Sam: Who did you speak to? Felicity: The perfume buyer.
¿Llamaste a Harrods? Sí. ¿Con quién hablaste? Con el encargado de compras de perfume. ¿Qué dijo él? Era una mujer. ¿Qué dijo ella? Estuvo muy simpática y me dio la impresión de que estaba interesada. Esas son muy buenas noticias. Prometí enviarle algunas muestras. Bien. ¿Concertaste alguna cita? Sí, pero no concreté la fecha. ¿Por qué no? Se va fuera y no está segura de dónde va a estar. Bueno, de todas formas, es un buen primer contacto.
Sam: What did he say? Felicity: It was a woman. Sam: What did she say? Felicity: She was very friendly and I had the impression that she was interested. Sam: That's very good news. Felicity: I promised to send her some samples. Sam: Good. Did you fix an appointment? Felicity: Yes. But I didn't fix the date. Sam: Why not? Felicity: She's going away and she's not sure of her movements. Sam: Well, that's a good first contact, anyway.
