From Louise by J. H. Speenhoff

male · defiant · 1:02 min

Do you talk this way always? You amaze me. Louise. I suspect you are the gentleman with the pretty touch about my shoulders. Well, sit down. Is he gone? Are you gone? Van Elst. I am still here. This is positively the last time I'll ask you to listen to me. I assure you, my patience is nearly exhausted. Your father and mother, your family have asked me to bring the following to your notice. Your present conduct has caused a great scandal. You've left your family for a man who is too far above you socially ever to make you his wife. Consequently, you have become his mistress.
