Lesson for Killian

James was looking at both of them with interest. I could see that he had already got the gist of the discussion with their words of interaction but had not yet interfered.

"Sorry, to interrupt but are you afraid that Mari will beat you or will be very harsh therefore you do not want her to be your mentor?" at last, he asked but I let him be.

I had tried to talk to Killian but he always thought that I was biased and could not understand his reasoning. So, James could be the one to open his eyes about Marianne.

"No, Sir James. Mother is too sweet and kind, she could never punish me." he said confidently but the man just laughed hard.

"She had mercilessly denied you to come with us and even when you have requested her she is still sticking to her point and yet you are calling her kind and sweet." he commented, making Killian shut his mouth instantly.
