“What is it?” Sebastian asked.
“A letter from my stepson by the look of it,” she said, and broke the seal.
Unlike her sister, she did not read easily, so it took her a few minutes to understand what the letter said. Even after reading it a second time, she could not believe the contents. The strutting lickspittle thought to deny her right to her own things. Anger, banked but not dead, flared up. Surely he would not dare.
She held the letter out to Sebastian. “Please, if you will, read this and tell me what it says.” Her voice was milder than she had thought it would be. So all the hard lessons Thomas had taught her were not lost; she could sound placid as a milch cow while resentment and annoyance curdled beneath her breastbone.
He took the letter and quickly scanned it. “It says the jewels you demand belong to the Manners family. You have no valid claim on them.”
I will flay him for this.
She took a deep, calming breath. “That is what I feared it said.”
I will crush his bones to powder.
