Lester swept into the atrium, his gaze darting to the ADD. “Jenny! Have they called in yet?”

“No, James.”

Lester swore softly before turning, only stopping when Jenny grabbed hold of his arm. “No! James, if they're caught, I can get them out again... 'oh, minister, you know how impetuous Quinn and Anderson can be, and Temple is easily led...'.” She trailed off when Lester scowled at her.

“We need you here, Sir James,” Lorraine added. “If you're caught sneaking into New Dawn, Burton will take the ARC and we won't be able to stop him. He'll have won, sir.”

Yes, listen to them, Lester. *bites nails*

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

I don't think they'll let him go. *mind your nails*

Thanks for reading.

I know he must be worried but I agree with Lorraine, he should stay put.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*nods* Lester is very worried... but unfortunately he knows Lorraine is right.

Thanks for reading.

Good call on the part of the ladies.

Lorraine and Jenny say thanks. They'll make sure Lester doesn't wonder off ;)

Thanks for reading.

She is definitely correct.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*nods* That she is - and Lester knows it.

Thanks for reading.

He should probably listen to Lorraine. Jenny can deal with this.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Lester should and probably will, no matter how much he doesn't want to. *nods* Jenny can deal with it.

Thanks for reading.

Jenny and Lorraine might nail his shoes to the floor...

Jenny will be someone that Burton would not want to cross!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Lester is keeping an eye on them, if they come anywhere near his expensive shoes...

Jenny isn't, but then, when is Burton sensible?

Thanks for reading.

A good thing that Jenny and Lorraine were able to stop him, although I can understand his urge to make sure Connor is safe.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*nods* Someone had to. He's got to worry about Connor.

Thanks for reading.

Good thing he's got those two to talk sense to him!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

James reluctantly agrees - but he knows you're right.

Thanks for reading.

Poor James. It's so difficult being left behind - fingers crossed the team is ok.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Definitely. He has to worry about his team and especially Connor.

Thanks for reading.

Eeek!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*nods* Though Lester hopes you're wrong.

Thanks for reading.

Always sensible ladies, love Jenny and Lorraine!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

They are, even if Lester doesn't appreciate it at the moment.

Thanks for reading.
