The car soon pulled up in front of Clara Grant's building. Her conversation with Seth Quinn on the way had been strained, so Clara got out of the car without a moment's hesitation. She shut the door, not even bothering to say goodbye, and walked toward the entrance.
Seth Quinn got out of the car after her, calling out from behind, "Aren't you going to invite me up for a bit?"
Clara Grant stopped in her tracks. She paused for two seconds, then turned and walked back to him. With a smile that didn't reach her eyes, she said, "You want to come up for a bit? Fine. Let's go. It's the perfect chance for you to pick up your son."
Seth Quinn froze for a moment, then remembered: the misunderstanding about Cherie being his son was still unresolved.
"I don't have a son."
