"If you'd care to argue it with him ?" Corina looked disbelievingly at the Ranger, who was smiling at her with one eyebrow raised. Was this what humans called "teasing"?

I was hired from the garage. That is the truth, Monsieur." Nora smiled disbelievingly. Doubtless he had been paid well for that lie. "And you?" asked the chief of Nora's chauffeur.
