Tobias opened the carriage door for Hazel in a hurry. He didn't know how but their conversation suddenly turned to Hazel questioning about what he did with one of the candidates of the selection in the library. It wasn't something he wanted to share with his wife when she was upset already, and he was going to make her more upset by leaving her here.
"We've arrived at the steps, so I think it is time we cut this conversation short. Let me get the door for you," Tobias said, hopping out of the carriage to make a grand escape.
Hazel wasn't finished with their conversation about the young woman he entertained in the selection. "Yes, you do that."
Hazel didn't care to know about his past flings, but she was curious about the rumour she heard about when she first entered the selection. Tobias had claimed to have no interest in the selection before her, but he had fun with someone else.
