Peter: Good. I'm glad you have no hard feelings . How would you like your old job back?

Peter: Bob, I'm trying to level with you. I never should let you go .
Bob: No use crying over spilt milk .
Peter: So you'll come back and work for me?
Bob: Not on your life ! Susan and I are very well off now. We just sold our new company for a small fortune .
