"I prefer not to listen beyond closed doors so out of curiosity, just how horribly did it go?" she continued to sip on her tea in one hand while reading a book in the other.

"Speak up; what was it you said that made her curl into a ball and vow to cry all the tears in her body?" the Lady placed her hands flat together on her lap, earning her a graceful outlook.
