Under the Veil I Rule

Chapter 63

As she spoke, Amara let out a sigh.

"Elowen and I are like real sisters, really. I can handle a few insults from her, but what if one day she talks to someone else like that? People might think Elowen's got no manners.

And earlier, she wasn't exactly respectful to her brother-in-law. That doesn't sit right with me. If word gets out, folks might start saying the Sullivan family doesn't know how to raise their kids."

Amara casually mentioned this, and Larry's face turned a shade darker. Fiona and Elowen, meanwhile, broke into a cold sweat.

Elowen was known for her sharp tongue, so a "few insults" were likely more than just a passing comment. She must have said something really nasty to Amara.

And when Amara mentioned the lack of respect towards her brother-in-law, how exactly was Elowen being disrespectful?

From the moment they sat down for dinner, Elowen's attitude towards Finnian was telling. Everyone at the table noticed it. Combining all this with Amara's remarks, Larry could easily imagine what Elowen might have done. He smacked the silverware on the table, about to lose his temper.
