"I'll teach you who is master under this roof."

He threw his cigar angrily away. "I know exactly what's the matter with you. You have run around with this lordly Kimberly till he has turned your head. Now you are going to stop it, now and here!"
"Am I?"
"You are."
"Hadn't you better tell Mr. Kimberly that?"
"I will tell you, you are getting yourself talked about, and it is going to stop. Everybody is talking about you."
Alice threw back her head. "So? Where did you hear that?"
"Lambert told me yesterday."
