My question is ; meaning of all the sentences are same?
What first sentence is trying to say and what second sentence is trying to say and what third sentence is trying to say ?
Can you please make first sentence into simple sentence because I do not understand sentence after comma
developing a relationship with them until they were ready to make a deal with us.
Can you please elaborate on this ?
Thank you in advance
