After Luke left the room, Wendy picked up the flask and fruit basket, took Lydia’s hand, and left the room.

In the room, the caretaker looked at Tommy and asked, “Master Tommy, do you think Sir will blame me for what I said?”

“Company business… are you in a hurry? If you’re not, can Lydia and I ride along with you? It’s only ten minutes away. It’s a little hard to catch a cab at this hour, and I wouldn’t want to im…”
