SPOILER!!: I'm surprised he didn't just walk away

It wasn't a secret Lex had a temper on her and it was even less a secret that her temper drove her to actions. Given her current circumstances there would be no action which left a very frustrated Lex sitting at a new table with a new chocolate frog being ripped from the packaging. At this point she was done trying to deal with Mr. Dakest. She didn't MIND that he'd dislocated her shoulder, it was just a thing that happened sometimes but then he forced her to the Healer and got her this bloody sling, tried lecturing her like she was six and snatched something so sacred as her chocolate frogs.

Done, she was done for today and would revisit that particular specimen of Auror another day. That being the case, he could sit over there and she would sit here until the work day was over then she would go home and whine to Lottie until she felt better.

In the meantime, with the frog now free, she began munching on it, eyes cast on the street outside and the people walking by the window. So determined was she to not notice anything anymore that she didn't realize he'd walked to the table until after he squished in next to her and had her shifting uncomfortably as she moved over.

Even then, her eyes didn't move from the window. The only acknowledgement of him was her taking the half open chocolate frog and stuffing it back in her bag. She grimaced at his miserable excuse for a reason to take her chocolate and it only got worse at the mention on his daughter. First, because she had NO idea they were talking about HIS kids which would explain his interest and the mean looks he gave her earlier and second, he stole her candy for a brat she'd never laid a hand on. It was hardly an even trade. "Difference is I didn't touch her but you touched what's mine." And with that she scooted further over on the seat.

"You've got a twisted sense of justice."

It helped break some of the tension that was still wafting about, even if the context wasn't entirely a laughing matter. And apparently, the frog-stealing was less of a laughing matter. As usual, he had expected maybe a verbal protest or some such. The stare he got. He had just jacked her food, but she had wanted to hit his kid, so fair was fair, right? The stomping off though, that was unexpected. For a moment he sat there, package half open, frog trying to wiggle its way out. For a moment, he wasn't sure whether he should laugh, roll his eyes, eat the damn frog or go after her. Really? Really? Sighs. Pushing himself up from the table, he reclaimed their unfinished coffees and went over to their table to put them down. For a minute he just stood there, until his legs relented and he squished himself into the booth beside her. Resting his elbow on the table, he held the package up and out to her, the opening pinched shut between his fingers. "You looked like you were having a hard time opening them. Thought I'd help." Of course she knew that wasn't the truth, and even if she didn't he wasn't putting any effort into it. "And I didn't like the thought of you thinking about hitting my daughter, so I wanted to get back at you." The last line was a more of a mumble, given he wasn't exactly proud of it, but really. It was the truth. It wasn't a secret Lex had a temper on her and it was even less a secret that her temper drove her to actions.
