"And at night, yes, M'sieur? For I work for Hattie and M'sieur Gold during the day. I mean, My Lady. I will do it - and... You will pay me?"
She laughs when he adds the bit about stealing. "I can promise I will not be caught." And again adds quickly. "I will not thieve. I will be good. Thank you, M'sieur."
