"Sorry about your nose, Riley, why don't you go clean up." Riley bolted for the door. "Let's eat. Damian's -" Lexx attempted to distract Chel.
"I want to check on Lisaan." Chel looked worriedly in the direction Lisaan had gone.
"Leave it to Damian." Lexx placed his hand on Chel's shoulder and tried to guide her in the direction of the tables. He had given up on trying to get a moment alone. The other guests would be allowed onto the balcony as soon as the tables were fully laid out.
"But Riley -"
"You were very critical about Riley and now you're believing something he said?" Lexx smirked, pointing out the contradiction politely.
"He's not a liar." Chel sighed. "He just doesn't tell anyone anything more than he thinks they should know."
