She hurriedly tried to correct herself, "James, I can explain..."
"Who are you to address me by my personal name?"

"I’ll deal with the Lawsons later.Personally."
James snorted as he walked away contemptuously.

I promise we won’t take much of your time.All we ask is that you prayvisit and give a word of blessing unto my father."Bryson looked at James eagerly, but at the same time,he was afraid James would turn him down harshly.
James replied with an amused smile, "With the way you were trying to talk to me, I thought you hadsomething important to ask.Sure, I’ll be there when the time comes."
