Theodore Holmes handed the phone to Amelia Linton, already on speakerphone, and loudly said into the phone, "Dad! I've given the phone to my mom. You can talk to her now."
Because it was deliberate, he didn't control the volume of his voice at all.
"Amelia Linton! You are truly insane!"
Upon knowing Theodore Holmes had given the phone to Amelia Linton, Fabian Holmes opened his mouth and angrily shouted at her.
Since it was a phone call, he had no idea what the situation was on the other side, but he held back somewhat because he knew there was someone there he cared about.
Fabian Holmes started yelling at her, but Amelia Linton, already filled with rage, showed no fear and yelled back over the phone, "Yes! I am truly insane, so you better not provoke me, or God knows what I'll do to this bastard child."
Fueled by anger, her voice was loud enough to shock not only the person on the other end but also the one sitting next to her.
