When Lex heard the door open, his body went taunt as he prepared to defend himself and what he was doing. When he glanced up and saw the look on Anatoly's face, his voice broke for a moment. He honestly hadn't expected to be found like this but if he had...that's not the reaction he expected.
But the last thing Lex wanted to was disappoint Ilona so he finished the story and closed the book with a finger marking his place. He watched Anatoly carefully, just in case his true reaction was delayed and in part as retaliation for being ignored all day, even if it was part of his role.
And yet again, Anatoly managed to surprise him by calling him Sascha, which in reality could be dangerous in this situation...but touched Lex more then Anatoly could ever know, to the point he was speechless.
