Manley chuckled triumphantly. "That's more like it! You should've get on sooner."
Estelle looked at him coldly, and her eyes calmed down. She said, "I apologize for hitting you last time, and thank you for not giving the surveillance footage to the police. From now on, can we not interfere with each other?"
