People were obviously far more blunt in England, weren't they? Peggy could appreciate a woman who would speak her mind, but she wasn't used to happening directly towards her. "It's okay. I'm... I'm just used to that conversation going very differently, is all. Sorry, just ignore that." Peggy mustered up a smile of her own. This was the longest conversation she'd had with a woman who wasn't Joan in the office in a day and an age. She didn't want to ruin it.

Peggy's smile grew a bit as she handed Lily the candy and shut the drawer. "Looking at us means looking to buy us and take us over. We'd be their American branch, as far as I know and I don't know much. I've only heard whispers. And I wouldn't let Don-- er, Mr. Draper or Mr. Sterling hearing you ask questions about it. I doubt we're supposed to know anything." Not that that ever stopped the office gossip machine.

"That said, if it wasn't the potential merger, what brought you to Sterling-Cooper, if you don't mind me asking. We don't get many Europeans, I'm sure the girls think you're very exotic."
