Capítulo 308: 308. A Wet Cloth

Jael squinted his eyes some more and fought the urge to insist. However, he wasn't satisfied with her response and just as he was about to comment on it, Haney called his attention.

"I don't understand the circumstances of your travel but for you to leave in such a hurry, I have to assume it was important," Haney asked, twirling his cutlery.

Jael tore his gaze from Mauve and turned to Haney. "I supposed," Jael responded.

"I don't mean to overstep but I would very much like to know just how important this issue was?" Haney asked.

"What does it matter? It has been dealt with so there is no need for you to concern yourself with such matters." Jael said dismissively, he didn't need to explain his actions to anyone let alone Haney.

Haney bowed his head, "As you wish, Sire."

They resumed eating and Jael brought his napkin to his lips as he finished his meal. He glanced at Mauve and she looked ready to go as if she had been waiting for him.
