There's no need to talk about manners.”
“Nonsense!” Zachary suddenly put down his fork. “Jerome, it seemed that you've had too much freesdom.
So much so that you've forgotten your place!” Mikayla had always heard from Wanda that Zachary had been very strict and harsh on Jersince he was young. The meeting today proved it.
