“Mmm-hmm. Go on ahead. Ignore whatever he said. He has gone mad.” William didn’t know what else to say.

“So what if I went to see her? It’s not like I harmed her!” William didn’t feel that he had done anything wrong.

“So what if it does? It’s not like I need him to approve of her. At most, I won’t bring her back home.”
