Winter Direct speech

WINTER DIRECT SPEECH./ Winter
“How much do they get paid?” I questioned loudly.
“Umm, what was that?” Mr Carruthers asked.
“I said, How much do Ralph and Sylvia get paid?” I replied angrily.
“They get paid a lot from the estate. Why do you need to know this?” Mr Carruthers asked.
“Wait a minute, what does the estate have in any of this? What are you thinking?” I questioned in an untempered voice.
“The estate pays for their power, water…. rent.” Looking through his briefcase, he asked, “You don’t need to answer, but I’m curious.  Why are you so interested in their wages?”
“Do you notice anything in particular about the property?”I asked.
“Aaaahhh” Mr. Caruthers seemed a bit flustered.
I could feel it.  I was about to erupt!  I was so over these people ripping off my estate.  They were stealing and taking advantage of my property.  “Well enough’s enough.” I said.  “I’m over it! These two workers have let blackberries over-run the farm.  There are weeds galore everywhere.  Gorse is growing along the fenceline and Where are the antiques?!” I yelled.
“What antiques? I don’t remember any; everything is here now right this moment. What are you talking about?” Mr Carruthers replied.
“The ones in the photos. My mother had antiques and I know it so do not lie to me!” I shouted as I gazed at Mr Carruthers.
“ Well I’m sorry. I didn’t know that and I don’t know where they are.” Mr carruthers said.
“You don’t remember much do you because your brain’s a bit rusty” I replied with a sas. “They get paid a lot and they treat the place like a dump. Ungrateful” I angrily said.
“At least its not like that bad. But it’s definitely not like how it used to be. Otherwise I don’t know what you are talking about?” Mr Carruthers returned.
“Are you out of your mind man? You must be drunk or something if you will think for one minute that this place isn’t revolting. Look how they treat my home. There are Blackberries everywhere and you can’t even touch the water. ” I screamed in a confused angry voice.
“Well calm down a bit Winter, settle.” Mr Carruthers replied
“Never tell me to calm down or settle. Where’s my mother’s furniture?. You can’t just chuck them out like it’s rubbish.” I angrily replied.
I don’t understand what’s up with him he might be taking drugs or just straight stupid. I’m over it, i thought to myself.
“Nar thats it Carruthers! I want them out by five o’clock. I’ve had enough.”
“You’re being unreasonable Winter.” Mr Carruthers returned.
“ No! No! No! You’re being unreasonable mate and if they’re not out by five o’clock you are!” I yelled.
