Jeremiah waited for her response, then stood as she did and shifted a bit to the side, ready to leave and let her rest. "Given the circumstances, I highly doubt that." He said, clasping his hands behind his back and beginning to walk towards the door. "But for the time being I will accept it."
Jaguar had been through much, and her trauma as a child was being brought back to the fore with Mason Cooper's arrival. Despite her strengths and her claims otherwise, Jeremiah did not think she was 'all right', but acting as if she wasn't would help nothing.
"Get some rest," he advised quietly when he got to the door, a hand resting on the knob, and glanced back at her once. "I will watch over your duties while you are away." Things would run smoothly, as usual, and she could simply pick up where she'd left off when she was ready. "Sleep well, Jaguar." He gave a slight incline of the head, and closed the door behind him on his way out. It was the last time he would allow himself the use of her first name. It was best to remain as impartial as he could. He was already showing too much favoritism towards her.
