"You have been with Terence for a long time. I want to discuss your wedding with him. How could he refuse to come?" Barton quizzed Jean with a scowl on his face.

"But Dad, I..." Jean wanted to avoid this meeting. She was on bad terms with Terence now and he would certainly not come. Admitting this to Barton would complicate matters.

What's wrong? You don't seem particularly happy to welcome me back."
