When Alister (barely audibly) agreed to the request for a favor, Jess felt her muscles relax a whole lot more. She had trusted he would have said yes if he was the same person she knew before, but it had been at least a couple years since she had spoken to him directly, so there was no knowing how much he had changed inside. All in all, she was very grateful that he had agreed and tried to reflect that with her tone, even though she felt bad now since this was all a ruse to get him and Mira on a team together.<br/><br/>"Thank you, Alister. Really... If there's anything you need before then, just give me a call. Take care."<br/><br/>Assuming he said his farewell too at that point, Jess would then hang up her phone, let out a deep breath that had been tightening her chest, and continue on her way. She would give Mira a call later to confirm the appointment, without telling her who else would be there, of course.
