I think he finally realized that without an "insider", things will be tough for him to handle. I'm not stupid, I know he plays nice just to get where he wants to get, he doesn't really suddenly "like" me lol.
We'll see...
Psychologically, the fact that he needs me is a nice positive for me. Will try to play my cards right. I underestimated him in the past, I won't do that again now.
Will try to keep you updated :-)
See ya,
Karim
