"Yeah, so you just happened to wander into the garden with a bag in your hands, all for nothing?"
When he put it that way, her points were basically backed up. Regardless of what she said, or didn't say, and do, or didn't do, she still looked like an idiot.
"You don't want to speak?" He asked.
His voice was calm, but it sent a nervous tremor all over her body.
