"So, buddy, could you please cut me some slack? I just want to have a brief chat with Mr. Barrett. Our two companies are about to collaborate, and I've only met Mr. Gomez so far. I haven't had the chance to meet Mr. Barrett yet."

Terry interjected cautiously, “It seems they have urgent matters to handle today, so it might not be the best time for you to meet with him. "Mr. Bowen, perhaps it would be best if you leave for now.
