“How dare you! This is my house! Let me go!”
I punched him in the face:
“You married into the Sterling family, live in the Sterling family’s house, and abuse the Sterling family’s heiress, and you have the nerve to call this your house?!”
Mark’s nose bled profusely, but he still yelled:

appointment, no entry.”
I scoffed:
