What's the Palace? What's the event? And what is her role in it?
So many questions, but so far, Lopez is not so forthcoming. All he does is grunt and nod in assent to each of Claire's conjectures. "It is not my place to provide the details, Madam."
"But I thought you were sent to actually 'enlighten' me about it," Claire says.
"I was sent to merely prepare you, Madam. And to safely escort you to the Palace."
"And what is this Palace, anyway?"
"It's just his house," Lopez says.
Claire makes a face. "The last time you said we were going to a 'house', what a house it was!"
Lopez shakes his head and smiles. "Apologies. I didn't know you were actually serious when you said you didn't know anything about Balenciaga."
