A few moments later, I was back to terminating my conversation with the princess after hanging up the call I was on previously.
" I'm back, Mei." I sat back down, waiting for the princess to continue our recent conversation.
What she said however had nothing to do with the conversation we've been having, " Your client must have been a difficult one for you to take that long."
" Yeah, he was, indeed." I was nervous all of a sudden and I couldn't understand the reason for my nervousness. Was it because I was arbitrarily lying to her, or because I couldn't tell her the truth? Which one was it?
" Did you finish with your client? Is everything good with him?"
" Yes, he had some issues and needed my help in sorting things out. He's a very secretive and grumpy man which is why I had to step out of the room to talk to him." I uttered nonchalantly.
We're reaching further into the climax and further around the run to the Final Act.
