Bunter offers to resign in Strong Poison the instant he realises Peter has fallen splat for Harriet because (I think, my copy has vanished) the lady may wish to have a say in the staff of the establishment. Peter tells him not to be daft, although this could be seen as Peter not wanting to count his chickens re. Harriet when she is still in prison with no hope of reprieve rather than Peter reassuring Bunter that this won't ever happen.
Do we assume this was enough for Bunter never to offer to resign again on Harriet grounds? Or did it come up in that pre-wedding Peter-Bunter conversation we don't get to see? It's a pity Bunter didn't get to see the Dowager Duchess and Harriet crying over him. It might have helped.
