When Guy Noble spoke those words, I quickly nodded. "Got it!"
We both stormed out after that.
I never saw Ms. Zackary's divine intervention coming! I'd given up all hope, but she jumped in to help me out!
Climbing into Guy Noble's car, we raced toward the Noble Family estate.
Night had fallen, but Pat Noble was still awake. He sat fishing by his pond, looking like some kind of immortal figure.
Guy Noble rushed to his father's side, gasping. "Dad, something terrible happened!"
Pat Noble glanced at him. "What's wrong? Stop making such a fuss."
"Dad, I got insulted at the Island Banquet," Guy Noble said, his voice shaking with rage.
"He said our Downton City is just some tiny speck, and that we're just some small noble family who's never seen the real world!"
Pat Noble's face darkened at those words.
Guy Noble kept going. "He even said we're from some backwater mountain village and called us tigers!"
"Monkeys," I corrected from the side.
