Winter steps out of hiding and walks back to the door, opening it a little to see how Marcellus is faring after that confrontation.
"I apologize for such an unsightly scene, Ms. Middleton - also, for grabbing you like that out of nowhere. Many people know you by now. I'm afraid she might suddenly do something to you once she recognizes who you are," Claude reasoned, making Winter turn to look back and smile at him.
"It's alright. I understand. Thank you, Sir Claude."
"Now then, I'll leave President Lexington to you. He gets exhausted whenever this happens."
With those as his last words, he returns her smile and spares her one final look before finally walking away. She bids him goodbye and makes her entrance at last.
"Sir Lexington," Winter called out as she opened the door, concern laced in her voice.
"Ms. Agreste…" Marcellus breathed, perking up in surprise when he saw her enter his office.
"How long have you been there?"
