“Did you hear his lordship call a second time?”
“I can’t say I remember, sir. I don’t think so, sir.”
“Were the lift doors still shut when you returned?”
“I can’t say, sir. I hurried downstairs, sir, without looking at the lift.”
“Yes, I see. What did you do then?”
“I went straight to the car, sir.”
“Meet anybody?”
“Beg pardon, sir? Yes, I did pass the commissionaire, sir.”
“Speak to him?”
Giggle turned a deep crimson. “I just mentioned his lordship seemed to be in a bit of a hurry, sir.”
