Jeanne brought George back to the Lawrence family's manor.
Alexander arrived home first. Instead of going back to his room, he sat down in the living hall.
Jenifer, Jasmine, and Joshua were there too. Jasmine's eyes were red and puffy as if she had just cried a river.
Jeanne ignored everyone and wanted to go upstairs with George.
"HOLD UP!" Alexander bellowed. He was so loud that it felt like even the manor trembled.
Jeanne turned around calmly as if she was not startled at all. She asked, "Yes?"
Alexander was furious. "Do you have any idea what you did earlier? Have you not learned your lesson? Many years have passed but you still never change! You're still reckless! Are you trying to embarrass me on purpose?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Jeanne stared straight into Alexander's eyes.
Alexander bolted up and walked toward his daughter. He lifted his hand into the air and wanted to slap Jeanne on the face.
