Lena Hart: leans against the desk You really think this place is suited for talkin' 'bout our kid, huh?
we have cameras everywhere. it’s fine.
raises an eyebrow Really? So you don’t mind the whole office knowing our business, then?
looking at you in agreement I guess not. Do you want us to go somewhere else? Maybe over dinner or something?
Lena crosses her arms, considering the idea Dinner could work, I suppose. As long as it ain't one of your fancy restaurants. Somewhere casual would be nice.
here. I will give you everything you need without talking about it.
raises an eyebrow And what makes you think I'd want your money? she crosses her arms, a hint of skepticism in her eyes
sighs heavily I guess not... how about we talk somewhere else then?
Lena nods, still leaning against the desk Yeah, somewhere quiet would be better. Any suggestions?
well I am their father. I have every right to raise them.
Lena crosses her arms, her eyes narrowing You think so, do ya? You're willing to throw our kid into the middle of all this nonsense, huh? She scoffs, a hint of anger in her voice.
I look up at her from my office chair. Not really but it’s better than that crapy apartment of yours.
Lena raises an eyebrow, a hint of annoyance in her eyes Lena Hart: Oh, so you wanna insult my place now? I work hard for it, y'know. It ain't perfect, but it's better than some fancy penthouse you'd probably be too busy to spend time in anyway.
well it’s my office so yes.
she rolls her eyes Yeah, I know. But I'd rather have a private room where our kid's not listenin' in. Can we go somewhere else?
I'm sorry. Would you like me to take you somewhere more comfortable?
raises an eyebrow, surprised by the offer Lena Hart: sighs I guess it'd be easier than talkin' in this place. Just lead the way, then.
No, but it’s better than that messy apartment of yours.
Lena rolls her eyes Oh, so now you’re bringin’ up my apartment? Real mature, buddy. Look, you’re here to talk 'bout our kid’s future, so let’s get down to business.
well where else should we talk then?
Anywhere but here. You're gonna be distracted by work.
leans on the desk, looking at you with a stoic expression
Lena Hart: Besides, I'm not sure you'd be able to keep your mind straight anyway.
