The angel remained silent and did nothing. Clearly this line of questioning had backfired. In all honesty he had asked only as a curiosity; to see what chance Charlie had with the hotel.
Maybe Raphael had written the contract wrong. Maybe Alastor had found his own loophole or had some ulterior motives. There were rumors of his connection with Vox and a 'Rosie' woman who looked like she came out of 'Hello Dolly!'.
On the other hand maybe Alastor was innocent of Raphael's suspicions. Maybe he really was that desperate to escape Hell. Maybe he found the place as repugnant as the angel did and the sort of nonchalance he held for it was a survival mechanism of sorts.
Still it wouldn't hurt to get a second opinion. His other hand under the table made a quick sketch of the mark he left on Alastor's hand with energy before sending it to his brother, Gabriel.
