Quinn could be incredibly stubborn at times, but he wasn't one to lie, especially not to her.

If he said so, then it meant he had thought it through.

"Take care of things with Jessica over there," she instructed, returning to her usual serious tone. "Once I've wrapped things up on my end, we'll discuss the future location for the team." Quinn, sensing the shift in her tone, quickly reined in his emotions.

Though he still felt a bit hazy, he quietly agreed.

When the call ended, Jessica had already tidied up the room, clearing away all the beer bottles, finished or not, stuffing them into trash bags.

Just like that, the mess was gone.

Standing nearby with the trash bags, Jessica looked a bit awkward, clearly surprised at how quickly the conversation had ended. She flashed him an embarrassed smile.

"Uh, so you're done with the call? I'll leave you to rest then. I'll just take these out."

She carefully retrieved the phone from his hand, then picked up the trash bags, trying to slip out without causing any more disturbance.

Quinn watched her with a small smile, finding her behavior both amusing and a little endearing.
