“What did you just say?” Seeing that he still dared to talk back, Ezra immediately blew a gasket. “How dare you speak to me in such a manner, Jonathan?”

When Ezra heard that, he grew so livid that steam was coming out of his ears. But just when his words fell, a sharp female voice rang out from the direction of the Smith mansion. “What’s all this commotion?
