"Exactly what it sounds like. With that foul mouth, I thought maybe you lost your parents early, with no one to teach you manners."

"Why you little brat, dare to say that again?"

Lemira had clearly struck a nerve. She shot back, "In the upcoming match, if you lose, then I want a public apology in front of the press for what you said about my parents!"
