6 (10 points) Best negotiated with South to provide some accounting services to South's businesses. Over the course of 24 hours, they texted back and forth a few times and finally Best summarized where the negotiations were at in an email. In the email Best requested that South confirm the understanding by replying to the email and indicating his (South's) agreement. Best did not hear back from South immediately. However, 10 days later South emailed back confirming the last text was acceptable and asking Best to start the work within the next 48 hrs (with some urgency). In the meantime, Best had committed himself to another project and could not immediately take on South's work. Assuming they could not compromise, what argument might Best make to avoid the legal obligation? What could Best have done to protect himself here? (10 points)
