However, Martel spoke again, and Allie returned her attention to her adviser. She blinked just once and then nodded in Martel's direction. "Making the move sooner rather than later does seem to be most appropriate. What with us taking such drastic measures to ensure security," she commented. "Agreed, on all accounts."
She paused to spare a small smile for her adviser. "I don't doubt that things are coming together beautifully. Thank you," she remarked. "Give my regards to our busy and important friend, please."
"As you command, Minister." Martel smiled an enigmatic little smile at her, watching her turn to her work.
"Excellent. I'll take care of everything, my dear."
Everything.
He bowed slightly, the enigmatic smile still in place even as he left the room.
The door may have locked behind him.
