"Stop banging on the door, Kate. It is annoying and pointless. Instead of banging on the door and continuing to irritate me, you should come over here to meet my family. You mustn't keep them waiting. They get angry," Simon patted his father who was the one to hate when others took too long to speak. "Come before you angry me, Kate."
Kate released the doorknob which would not open. There were servants all over the house when they came in who should have heard what happened. They were not coming to save her. With teary eyes, Kate turned to face Simon. She did not want to look at the people who seemed to be his parents but she did not want to anger Simon.
Simon was normally a sweet man but Kate had a dangerous feeling about him now. Like he would hurt her if she stayed by the door.
