Shire ultimately received only an insignificant piece of intelligence.
At that time, the considerate Mr. Jilard waited with the others outside the airport to bid farewell to Shire. He deliberately created an opportunity for Shire and Lucia to be alone.
"I'm sorry." Lucia said, "Our relationship got out and spread to Belgium, so…"
"I know." Shire nodded, he had already guessed it.
Then Shire asked, "Did my performance disappoint them?"
Lucia raised her coffee cup and smiled, "What do you think?"
Shire didn't need any performance; his aura was enough to impress any family, besides, his performance was quite proper.
However, Shire didn't seem to care about this, he immediately moved the conversation to business: "Nothing happened in Paris, right?"
Lucia recalled for a moment and replied, "People are very angry about Grevy's treachery, especially knowing he targeted you, so they plan to send him to the guillotine, scheduled for next week."
