Matteo was in the middle of talking business with Ronald and Bronson when he took a look at Alfred and immediately changed topics. "Why hasn't Emily returned to her seat yet? Did something bad happen?" He asked with a chuckle.
Alfred powered down his phone and continued eating without looking up. "She has no business being here in the first place, so I let her go home," he replied.
"Excuse me, when did YOU become the boss of her?" He asked with an eyebrow raised.
Alfred put down his cutlery and used a paper towel to wipe his hands in an graceful manner. "It appears that I'm not needed here as well. Thanks for the meal, by the way. I need to head back to set now," he said curtly.
Matteo was stunned speechless.
