"Sorry for her misdemeanor, she is good at forgetting herself" Dorothy said to Everly when the maid left.
"No offence taken" Everly replied.
Everly waited little while for Dorothy to bring up the issue of why she asked to see her, when Dorothy was not coming forth to say anything, She decided to take matters into her own hands.
Cleaning her throat, "I am sorry to want a meeting with you on such short notice, but…" Everly was saying when she got interrupted.
"Why are you so much in a haste?" Dorothy questioned, revealing her white set of teeth in a smile, "We need the wine to wet our throat that would get dry and parched as we talk '' She continued.
"Oh! I get it" Everly said and withdrawed back into her shell.
