"Sir, Ms. Snyder has left and seems to be heading toward the airport." Xavier's pupils contracted. Instinctively, he thought that Yvette was trying to leave.

"Ray watched overduring the day. I let him go to the hotel to rest tonight. He can't sleep in the car all the time, Yvette replied. "I'll assign a few more people to you-" Claude began, but Yvette cut him off.
"There's no need. It's too restrictive," she complained, looking uncomfortable as she glanced at the row of bodyguards behind Claude.
"Alright. I'm back now anyway," Claude said with a smile in his eyes.
"Yeah, let's go. Kiki and Zac have been waiting to see you. You won't believe how tired they were when left, but they insisted on staying up to E' see you." Yvette laughed as they walked and chatted.
