Realizing there was no escape, Linus reluctantly gave up and slumped in his brother’s hold. Letting out a sigh of defeat, he glanced over his shoulder at Caius.
Linus: I was trying not to see you until the Bridal Quiz was over…
Hoping to deflect Caius’ growing irritation, Linus quickly tried to change the subject, grasping for a diversion.

Caius (calmly): No wonder I can’t get in touch with you.
But Caius wasn’t fooled, seeing right through Linus’ ploy.
Caius (matter-of-factly): They were in favor of the New Law, so we finished our talk early.
