Assume that Mr. Anderson had seen Ms. Branson at a party a few weeks before Hill approached her about buying the land. At that party, Anderson and Branson chatted briefly about her possible interest in selling the land. At that time, Mr. Anderson told her, "I have a man I will send to your place to talk about the sale. He buys land for me as investments." In reality, Hill works for Anderson Crossing Investments, Inc., and not for Richard Anderson personally, but Mr. Anderson was trying to impress Ms. Branson. Later, Hill does go to Ms. Branson and buys the property, which quadruples in value over the next few years and is sold to the mall, making a profit for Anderson Crossing Investments, Inc. Branson sued Mr. Anderson for the actions of his agent in misleading her about the value and contract terms of the sale of the land.
