"I apologize if you have felt that I had disrespected you but there must be a reason to punish anyone. We are not living in the age of tyranny. Are we?" Evan asked in a calm and collected way. Her voice was filled with respect yet strong enough to know that she was not going to relent just because the person was older than her. She looked at the old woman in front of her defiantly.
A displeased look formed on her face when she got a reply for the first time in her life. Not even her family had ever got the courage to reply to her. Her words were the royal decree which had always been followed without a word. Every head had been bowed in front of her since she remembered. When she heard Evan, her deep and old eyes turned icy cold. It was like a beam of frost was charged towards Evan.
