Jeff was a subcontractor, bidding on a contract for ACE Corp., the general contractor. When adding up the total of materials and labor, Jeff’s secretary mistakenly moved the decimal point one place, ending up with a bid of $3,500 rather than $35,000. ACE Corp. accepted Jeff’s bid, mostly because all the other bids were over $30,000. When Jeff learns of the mistake, he tells ACE Corp. that he cannot do the job for $3,500. If ACE Corp. sues to enforce this contract, what is the most likely result?

Linda was very scared during the whole incident. She did not think it was funny when Adam pulled the mask off and took a bite out of the gun as he gave her the purse back.
