While I appreciate the timely rescue, Lestrade would have found me eventually. You can survive premature burial for much longer than you might assume. I had at least another two hours left presumably. And considering the fact that I've been written out of the family will, you won't be getting much by way of a reward. It's a bit of a gamble kidnapping the youngest of three. My older brother may hold a position in government, but he despises acts of brotherly love, and the eldest of usβwho stands to inherit anything significant, though I imagine Mycroft will contest thatβmight as well be a stranger to me.
So you see, you've made a rather grave ha miscalculation. No one is coming for me, and certainly no one in my family will be motivated to offer you a ransom. I suppose we're stuck with each other, then. I do hope there's decent tea around here. Are there hobnobs as well?
