Be Very Careful How You Answer The Question
Ah... I see you have been admiring the small marble statue of the ferret on the mantle. You have very discriminating taste. But you were not supposed to have noticed it, in fact, Maxwell was to have had it removed before you arrived. He will be beaten severely for his... slight. No matter, that's no concern of yours. I suggest that you forget what you have seen. It will be better for you. Please do not take that as a threat; I am merely concerned for your welfare. Would you care for some tea?
