My butler and I went down there, but it is an empty apartment.
The butler went back into the hall in a flustered way.
The butler had gone into a room on the left and from there a woman emerged.
The butler went down the hall and knocked on the study door.
The butler had just gone in to announce them, and was apparently taking his time.
Ten minutes ago the butler had gone to fetch Maddie, and still no sign of her.
We shrugged, and took them, and the butler went back into the house.
The men resumed their buzzing conversation after the butler had gone.
The butler smiled gently and went on with his work.
She did not wait just inside the door as requested when the butler went to fetch an official to speak with her.
