Bab 181: YOU LOOK LIKE A DUCK....

"I asked a question earlier? What is going on here?" She heard the professor bite out.

"Nothing that is any of your business." Claire replied.

Emma thought that she was about to watch the battle of exes; as this was what it must be. She could see her professor trying to calm himself down as the implication of the statement drowned in him.
