“Okay, but I have to tell you something,” Michael says, unable to leave them completely in peace.
It’s only been a few weeks since he last saw Wolfgang, and this is the first time he’s come here to see them on purpose; it makes him feel nervous and stupid, but he doesn’t know where else to go with this news. Everyone else who would care is already informed, and most of them are more shocked or irritated than pleased. Stan had been happy for him, but in a bemused way, like he hadn’t understood how Michael had managed it. Winning the Clio had been more satisfying. He feels the same way now as he did when he landed this job: thrilled and alone.
