Did he send Minimus Hart and Raina Bell to her just so she could vent her anger?
Sophie found this explanation somewhat far-fetched.
If it was just to let her vent, why didn't he say so from the beginning? Why wait until now?
"Thomas Shannon, let go."
"No."
Thomas Shannon hugged her tightly and whispered weakly into her ear, "Mother said that Fennie can be moody, but she can't run away from home."
Sophie felt suffocated, as if she might cough up blood.
How dare Thomas Shannon mimic her!
"That's my mother, not yours!"
"She is our mother." Thomas Shannon's cool, thin lips pressed a flurry of tender kisses onto her delicate, swan-like white neck.
His hot breath also fanned across her neck.
Sophie felt a tickle from his kisses and shrank her neck back. "Thomas Shannon, you have no shame!"
"If Fennie has run away, what's the point of me having this face?"
He might as well not have it.
