Mr. Blanchet’s mood swung like a pendulum; one minute he was raising hell, and the next he was talking to Ellinor in soft whispers.

Ellinor stifled a yawn and responded, “She needs to learn and needs to challenge herself. Otherwise, how is your sis gonna survive out there? What if she can’t even get married?”
