Pheobe Rogers was so furious and disoriented by Julia Bluen and Mila Anderson that she nearly blurted out James Horne's love for Julia. Doing so would undoubtedly have driven James out of the Horne Family!
Gian Horne's face turned even redder, displaying his embarrassment more clearly.
With a flick of his hand, he walked into the house like a man fleeing calamity, his old face beet-red.
In front of his daughter-in-law, and in front of his wife and children, he was the most disgraced.

As for Pheobe Rogers, his disappointment in her grew, and he became more and more reluctant to deal with her.
"Gian..." Gian Horne was Pheobe Rogers's most powerful talisman. Once he left, what support would she have?
