Cass shouldn't have been surprised by the lecture, in truth he almost wasn't, though he really did find it rather needless as he had - more than enough - learnt his lesson.
Still he tried his best not to offend her and simply nodded. 'I tried to find out where she was being held,' he said. 'Not that it mattered, and trust me, if I've learnt one lesson the hard way, that's the one.'
He brushed it off, then listened to her "offer" with a raised eyebrow, almost smirking. 'And if you were the vindictive sort, and offered me such a position, I'd rather join the Muggle Police force and turn you down,' he said calmly, though of course he meant it. He was without a job, but he was not desperate. There were ways he could get around this.
'So, if you're not the vindictive sort, what kind of job are we talking about?' he asked.
