"Ohh… so that's what happened." Ashley nodded as she turned to her side.
Lucian walked alongside her, pushing the cart while they did their groceries.
"Did you notice anything in the High Chamber?" she asked, moving to one of the aisles and grabbing some snacks. "Like any of them reacting strangely?"
He shook his head. "Poker is a game many in Dominion play as part of their training."
Meaning, showing a strong reaction from only a few words or even big actions was something everyone in Dominion was trained to avoid. Especially among Dominion's higher ranks, they all knew how to keep a straight face—particularly in front of Lucian.
"Ah…" Ashley nodded as she grabbed more snacks from another section.
Lucian glanced at their cart before returning his attention to her. "But it was enough for them to take a step back. They won't be making any moves for now."
Lucian was certain of that.
