The fact that the clock read it was just quarter to one made him feel even more unsettled.
“Why the hell did you have to let her leave when you had the chance to talk with her?” he muttered from between his sharp teeth.

She is already hurt as is.”
Caspian suddenly gripped the edge of his work desk with both of his hands, almost as if he wanted to hurl it right at the clock. But he abstained from doing so.
