Forgive my delay, won't you? I've only just arrived back at the shop.
And as it happens, I come bearing news. It won't surprise you to hear that Mayor Mills was— Hm. Let's say she wasn't particularly thrilled to see me.
I believe she expected a longer face. Less spring in my step? (Perhaps it was the lingering scent of honey that threw her.
Perhaps it was the revelation of where that honey came from— And why its scent lingered on my throat.)
Toothless threats were endeavored. Claims of foul play - an absurd feint, given the hole she dug herself, and into which she would gladly have tossed you and I alike - were fired.
But I'm pleased to report that I've been put into possession of a substantial sum of money. You may consider your business with the mayor closed. She had no choice but to accede to the contract.
Congratulations, Jack: You eliminated half the farm's debt in one deftly managed swoop.

You've done very well, my Puppy.
