"She was?" the women asked in surprise, then turned to Patella. "By whom?"
"Mr. Kunt, mistress." replied Patella. When the women heard that, she was very flustered and embarrassed.
"Oh, Mr. Kunt told you to? Why didn't you tell me sooner?" she asked.
"I was trying to." Patella replied.
"Ehm, so you were." After the women calmed down a bit, she said "You take care of missy here, and I will get someone else to do your job. Take good care of her, okay?" the women said, and left the room in a hurry.
