She acknowledged the Captain's greeting acidly.
"Good evening, Captain," she said.

"I understood from the second steward that the seat on your right hand would be reserved for me.

Foston Rowe." The Captain received the announcement calmly.
"Very pleased to have you at the table, madam," he replied.

"As to the seating, I leave that entirely to the steward.

I never interfere myself." Laura pinched his arm, and Lenora glanced away to hide a smile.
