"I do not like repeating myself."
Lissy Lock attempted to leave, but Aurora Dupont reached out and held her back, uttering in a voice so low only the two of them could hear: "Lissy Lock, have you forgotten? Do not be obstinate in his presence."
Lissy Lock stiffened immediately, and then slowly relaxed.
Aurora Dupont squeezed her hand, opened the door and walked out of the office, carefully closing the door behind her.
Lissy Lock closed her eyes and took several deep breaths before turning around: "It was just this morning when we last met, John Fame, why do you want to see me now?"
He stood in front of the sofa and looked at her, "In the morning we had outsiders, now it's just us."
"So...what do you want to say to me?"
"Come here."
Lissy moved against his suggestion: "No."
"Do I need to coax you and hold you like Walter Smith?" John Fame's voice and facial expression turned cold, "Lissy Lock! Remember your status!"
