"What? Has Jasper Brown lost his mind?" Evelyn Howard said in disbelief.
"Who knows." The woman's voice on the phone was full of mockery.
Evelyn Howard's gaze shifted as she deliberately applied ointment to the eye.
"Auntie, this Jasper Brown seems to really dislike you, he even cursed at you."
"What did he curse at me for?"
"He called you a mistress climbing to the top, saying how could we shamelessly bully others outside, relying on you, the mistress."
Emily Jefferson's breathing obviously became heavier, and then she said, "Alright, there's no need to sweet-talk me; I'm not in the mood to engage in a battle of wits with him now."
