Debididn't stop Rose from calling Margaret.
Once the call was answered, Rose told Marget in detail what had happened that night, "Aunt Margaret, how can Tiana be so mean? She said that as long as Dad helps Austin , she would report him to the authority. Even Dad has to listen to her now. She's stirring things up!"
Upon hearing that, Marget fumed with rage. "D*mn Tiana! She's getting back at Austin ! How can she be so cruel?" In complaining about Tiana, she did not realize how cruel she had been in the first place.
"Yeah, Mom and I were pleading with her, but she never let up… She even cursed us with nasty words!"
Marget sighed. She was well aware of Tiana's temper and eloquence.
Back when Tiana had confronted her, Marget couldn't even get half a sentence in. It seemed that Steve couldn't be counted on from now onwards. Knowing that it wasn't Rose's fault, Marget didn't harbor any ill feelings against her.
