The head of the family didn't like that he was interrupted, but he didn't become angry. He just kept quiet and let her speak for as long as she wanted.
She began pacing about as she spoke. "It shouldn't matter if they did it or not. What matters is that we asked them to do something important and they refused. What matters is that they disrespected out family."
"They are just hired help, yet they think they can disobey us. The gall. How disrespectful. We have to take action against them to teach them a lesson and to punish then for their crime if killing our daughter."
She spoke for a long time. After she was done speaking, he still didn't speak.
He was as quiet as a mute. She saw this and realized that she had offended him, so she sat down on the chair in front of his desk reluctantly and waited for him.
According to experience, she knew that she could only wait. If she tries to force him, things will only get worse. So no matter how impatient she was, she could only wait.
