"Je suis très désolé de vous avoir fait attendre," said a young man who arrived with the solicitor. He offered his hand to the imperial woman with a polite bow. "Madame?"
Witches and vampires were not often associated with one another, no, but Gaspard Laurent made a point of knowing anyone who mattered. And Madame de Fer? Was a woman who mattered. She was an individual around whom the world would change. Those were the people he associated himself with. The ones he kept in the presence of and whom he liked to keep the favour of. Besides, they often found a use for him, as well.
And now, he was quite content to breeze in with the solicitor and conduct her away with due pomp but without anything flashy that would suggest shame or scandal. That she had been involved in this at all was a slight to the name of England's police, and he'd make sure that was known. But at present, he played the valet perfectly.
