“I see,” tiny frown lines appeared between her eyebrows.

“Sorry.”

Well, at least you’ve got that out in the open now.

A fire on a street below caught his attention.  A car had been set on fire, and people were crowding around it.

Hm? Villains afoot?

Or are these people using the car as a campfire of sorts?

Not noticing, Piggot pursed her lips, “Fine.  My apologies for putting you in that situation.  I won’t say anything further about Director Armstrong for the time being.  I was speaking of the need for public relations?”

“Yes ma’am,” he spoke, feeling somewhat relieved at her composure.

Composure is what she does best, I suppose, besides maybe PR.

He wouldn’t feel a hundred percent okay about it until he verified her as someone who wouldn’t find some other way to get back at him.

I don’t think she’s the type for that, though relations between the two of you may be a little strained.

But I mean, Piggot’s the kind of person whose relationships with the people she works with are strained by default, isn’t she.
