In other words, she went silent and was trying her best to pull away from the conversation. Ghosting behavior, as usual. If this were a meeting at the hospital, she'd probably pretend to check a patient chart and never come back.

Also, is "we" in the same room with us? Hello, I wasn't invited yet!
