"Jane Sampton is my wife!" James Black gritted his teeth, "Who asked for your blessings for her with someone else, huh?"
The very thought of Jane Sampton's name associated with another man, let alone being blessed, felt to James Black as though a knife was stabbing right into his heart.
"The Chief has quite a sense of humor, ha ha." Team Member C forced a dry laugh, secretly muttering to himself that he wasn't accustomed to the normally stoic Chief suddenly cracking jokes.
"Who's being humorous with you?" James Black's voice was icy, "Do I look like I'm joking with you?"
Team Member C really wanted to nod, but upon meeting their Chief's cannibalistic glare, he reconsidered and quickly shook his head, speaking in a tiny voice, "No, not at all."
"Hmph!" James Black snorted coldly and turned away.
With his departure, the team members felt as if the air around them had warmed up a few degrees.
Once James Black had left, everyone started talking again.
