Ella was just being civil, she was being calm and sincere with her words, yes she was being secretly seething but it wasn’t transparent so the only person who knew would be her; “Again, you would need to take that up with your mother. I respect my elders and I stand by what I say, if she tells me that’s okay to do so then I will do it, but until then-… patience is a valuable lesson to learn” she would have love to have commented on that last line because she completely agreed and she didn’t want to be, not by a long shot but she didn’t.
“If you know you can win, then you should definitely solidify that by going up against me. I have a few things here for you, unless you’re chicken of course” once again she wasn’t here to be sassy or off colour she was merely stating what she had always taunt; “One day you will learn that you can’t force people to do things-… I may be your maid but I am not a slave, and if you happen to put one hand on me Lucifer, I will call the police, I don’t care if I loose my job. My self worth and value is more important then any kind of money to me” she worked for them and she put up with them but she didn’t need to to tolerate any kind of threats. “Talk to your mother.”
Patience is a valuable lesson to learn. That was something Lucifer probably needed to hear but it only made him angrier. “I’m sure she’s told you to obey all of our orders. Not just hers. I’ll definitely be taking this up with her,” he told her firmly.
Lucifer crossed his arms and rose his eyebrows. “I would but unfortunately for you I have a prior engagement and am unable to. Seems like you trying to pawn off your work on me was not a success. My mother will be hearing about that too.” Not in the exact way it happened but he never claimed to be an honest man. “As much as I dislike you I would never lay a hand on you. I’m better than that. How dare you assume otherwise.” Lucifer may have been nasty but he wouldn’t physically harm her. “Trust me, I will be.”
