Lady shot an inquisitive look at Hartigan, wondering the same thing as Julian.
He could have just announced his presence as soon as he came. There was no reason for him to sneak around. Though it could be that he just did not want to intrude while they were in the middle of having a conversation, finding him listening in on them in secret was not really any better.
"You were actually here too, Hearty?" Lady started.
"Why? Can't I be here?" Hartigan muttered grumpily.
"I'm just asking a question, brat. Reply like a normal person."
"Well, it's stupid. You can already see that I'm here."
"Are you trying to pick a fight with me?"
"Sure. Why not? Do it in front of your future fiance."
Now, she regrets saying anything good about this kid.
