"Monsieur Leprêtre wishes for us to leave him alone with Monsieur Noel." the translator said after turning his head to the representative.
"Ah, yes. Of course. They will be working together after all. You two take as long as you'd like." the representative replied cheerfully before walking away as the translator repeated what he said to Claude before leaving Jessie alone with Claude.
Jessie was silent the whole time, merely observing Claude. He didn't look like he was much younger than himself, which made Jessie draw the conclusion that he wasn't much older than the model. His accent was...perfect. He'd heard many people speak French, but for some reason hearing it coming out of Claude was much different. The accent wasn't too thick or too light. After a few moments of them just standing in silence, Jessie figured he had to be polite and at least show Claude he had learned French, so Claude didn't have to struggle to speak English if he didn't know much of it.
"Je suis resté pendant un certain temps en France, donc je sais un peu de votre langue.(I stayed for awhile in France, so I know a little bit of your language.)" Jessie said with a small smile before gesturing to his own face. "Je me souviens de votre visage. J'ai vu un peu de votre travail alors que j'étais stagiaire.(I remember your face. I saw a little of your work while I was an intern.)"
