"Certainly, wait by all means," said Edestone with a jolly laugh. "Set your clock. Now open your door and drive me to that restaurant over there, and then wait for me till I have had my lunch.

And from this he diagnosed still another symptom of the Pack's incurable stupidity! Supremely on the alert, he had discovered the pursuit before they left the block of the restaurant.
Well, you'll have plenty of opportunity of judging, because you're coming to live here. I'll let you have a suite and I'll let you have your meals, but outside of that nothing doing! Nothing doing!

Then, with something like a sigh, she left the warmth and comfort of the restaurant for the bleakness of the street, on which a thick fog had descended. This enveloped the man and the woman.
