‘Oh, hello, Tobias. What brings you here?’
‘Megan and I are about to have dinner,’ he stated.
‘R…ight, so…’
‘If you don’t mind,’ Tobias inclined his head towards the pathway, indicating Nick’s wanted departure. Megan decided to kneel down and pat Zac to hide her embarrassment. The two men clearly hated each other and she felt caught up in the middle.
‘Right, well, in that case I’d better go,’ Nick said, looking at Megan for some kind of objection. None was forthcoming. He coughed, ‘Er, right, ‘bye then, Megan.’
‘Bye, Nick,’ she replied with a smile.
‘Goodbye.’ Tobias stared him out. Nick stared back for a few moments then quietly left.
Megan was determined to find out what exactly the history was between the two of them, and between Nick and Finula, for that matter.
