The butler said, "I guess he's gotten used to having you around all the time, and now that you've suddenly ignored him, he's feeling a bit jealous."
"Ha," Melody Thorne couldn't hold back a laugh.
She called Leon Rivers directly, "Is Jared Quinn with you?"
Leon Rivers glanced at the man sitting furthest inside, "Sister-in-law, have you been too strict with Jared recently, causing him to lose all personal freedom? Look at him, he's getting unhappier by the day. Sometimes men need a bit of freedom too; you've got to let go, otherwise, he'll feel overwhelmed and suffocated!"
Melody Thorne was silent for a second, "Are you saying I've been too strict with him, and that's why he's unhappy?"
"Ah," Leon Rivers glanced again at the man across from him, and a long leg kicked over at him.
Leon Rivers quickly dodged, and the call was already hung up, "Jared, are you trying to murder me for my money?"
That almost hit him where it hurts!
