"That you would decide to get married to someone like...him," Mr. Wang answered glancing over at Mark with a small hint of disgust in his eyes.

Mark felt tears threatening to fall as he looked down at his plate; appetite gone. Not wanting to show any sign of weakness, he ripped his hand out of Jackson's and stood up bowing respectfully.
