She glanced over at him, cautiously, wondering what he was even up to. Random boat ride on the lake? If she wasn't squinting into the sun, she'd have arched her brow in suspicion. "So, how long are you staying here, anyway?" she asked. The boat was now riding a heck of a lot smoother, so Xavier cut the engine and let it float for a bit.
"Oh, I'll be here for a while," he said, looking back to the shore. "I'm using the invitation to my advantage. I came back to England for a reason and I'll be using the lake as a base of operations, of sorts."
He paused for a minute, wondering how much he should divulge about his return to England. He wasn't entirely sure if he had the right information, but it was something to start with. |
