If Emmeline hadn't been so angry at the moment, she might have laughed at Peter's question. Did he think she was luring him to a secluded area so she could attack him? Well, he might have been right to be concerned about something like that, but it wasn't the case.
Be professional. Be professional. Emmeline had to keep reminding herself of this as she neared the back of the store, completely ignoring Peter's question.
