Stubborn Mule

Dax was aware Mr. Wells was calling him an outsider because he was an outsider. He didn't have a problem accepting it either. 

Glancing at Tia who was ready to leave hearing her father, he looked back at Mr. Wells, "Mr. Wells, you wouldn't have needed an outsider to bring your daughter home if you had behaved like a father." His voice was sarcastic and cold.

Mr. Wells pointed his finger at Dax, "You-" Then he shrugged and looked at Tia, "Because of you, I have to listen to the mannerless, audacious man. Aren't you ashamed?" He hissed in disgust.
