I brought this on myself

"Mr. Helio Romswell Jintel, if you'd taken her, I wouldn't have acted, but you had the galls to offer your protection to those two." There was a lot of finger-pointing. 

Apparently, the bunny's mother, bunny senior was just outside the elevator on the ground floor. I guess she had a faster way down and a way to eavesdrop on our conversation too. Should have been obvious I guess. 

'Well, should have seen this coming.'

But I sure hadn't. 

I sighed. "Look, I've had a long day, I wanna go home and lie down. Do you mind moving?" I mean, it couldn't hurt to ask nicely. 

She had some of her goons with her. They were guards rather than goons though. 

"You may leave but she cannot!" Again, she was pointing way too much. 

It was surprising at first, a bit troublesome in the middle, and now just plain irritating.
