George watched the man sipping his wine with such leisure and said coldly, “I didn’t realize you were quite this busy, Mr. Whitmore.”
In Radovia, George had never been subjected to such treatment. Usually, it was others who waited for him; he had never been the one keptooling his heels. If it weren’t for the crisis at hand, he would have walked out long ago.
