Cecilia received Clarisse's call for help while she was having lunch with David at a restaurant. Since her company was only a couple of streets away from David's, whenever David didn't have any lunch meetings, he would come by her office to take her out for lunch. After eating, they would sit and chat until it was time to go back to work in the afternoon.
In reality, most of the time, it was Cecilia talking and David listening, with Cecilia mostly gossiping about her company, especially about Natasha and Susan. Then, as she talked, she would get caught up in imagining the development of the stories and forget about the man sitting across from her.
After listening to Clarisse's story, Cecilia once again forgot about the man sitting opposite her and enthusiastically started playing the role of a relationship expert:
"Hey, Clarisse, Jonathan isn't mad because you hurt him. I guess...he's upset because you kept it a secret that you were going undercover, right?"
