I am the one who has been taking care of you for years when you didn't want to remain in your parent's house.

I have watched you well in my youth and how you treated others. It was amusing as a child but as a husband, you won't treat my wife the same just because my father allowed it with my mother. Picking at her not decorating the house will only be the beginning," Edgar said, knowing how it would go if he let her act as she wanted with Alessandra.
