Old Master Simonson was also displeased. Elders generally preferred submissive girls, and Purple Summers's approach earlier was too domineering.
But it was his wife and Violet Nelson's behavior that made him feel humiliated.
As a senior member of the family, the old lady had every right to scold Purple Summers, but Violet Nelson's remarks had seemed accidental at first glance, yet were filled with veiled attacks. Among those who play political games, none are fools—how could they fail to understand Violet Nelson's cunning?
Purple Summers didn't swallow her anger; she exploded like a firecracker, leaving everyone at the table covered in metaphorical soot and ash.
