Anyone could tell that his patience was wearing thin.
Countess Kerr tightened her fists and acted as though she finally remembered who he was talking about. "Oh, her? Didn't I send her upstairs to get changed into fresh clothes? I will send someone to bring her down."

Countess Kerr promptly looked worried. "Huh? What about the girl then?"
"I couldn't find her. All the rooms on the second floor are empty and she's gone."
"How could this happen?" muttered Countess Kerr.
