240 CH 239: Honey for Dinner, Yes?

"Eve, it's terrible! Sir Hathaway wouldn't answer any of my calls or my messages. I thought he'd have more sense of responsibility than Sir King but they're almost the same!

Work is piling up and I am going under stress because I don't know what to tell people when they ask about him!"
