Chapter 18 Malinda the Bad*ss

• "If I hadn't come over, you would've ruined the Hopkin Family!" Malinda scolded angrily. "Do you know who Mr. Reed is? He's an honored guest of my family! Who gave you the nerve to throw him out?"
• Her words hit Patrick like a thunderbolt. He stood there stupefied, his eyes wide with shock and disbelief. Jaymore is an honored guest of the Hopkin Family? How is that possible? Isn't he just a useless live-in son-in-law of the Moore Family? How could he be an honored guest of the Hopkin Family? After all, the Hopkin Family is Walstino's top family. How could Jaymore have any ties with them?
• He hastily apologized, "I'm sorry, Miss Hopkin! I really didn't know Jaymore was an honored guest of the Hopkin Family."
