Chapter 43
Dennis and Christine found themselves baffled by the situation.
They concluded that it was their responsibility to personally guide their daughter, Naomi. Otherwise, the constant indulgence from everyone in the household might lead her down a troublesome path.
Brendan chauffeured them home, and during the ride back, the couple nked Naomi and gave her a stern lecture.
"Youngdy, we sent you to studyw to champion justice. As awyer, how is it that you yourself would break thew? Why would you go to someone else''s house to start a fight?" Christine questioned solemnly.
Naomi was unwilling to entertain these words. She retorted, "Doesn''t Madelyn know that assaulting people is against thew? Why should I follow the rules when she doesn''t?"

He continued, "Naomi, you can continue working if you wish. If one day you manage to grasp the ways of the world,e back to thepany and assist me."
Naomi didn''t take the bait when Dennis suggested the idea of returning to thepany. She chose to ignore it instead.
