"I've already explained it. This Purple Clay Teapot is the most precious antique on display here for two reasons.

Simon just gave a helpless shrug, his gaze sweeping over the other Apexian students. "I wonder if anyone else can answer my question? It seems Galloway's abilities aren't quite up to snuff!"
This Simon was clearly just looking for a fight! And he was brazenly challenging Michelle Galloway!
