Michelle Galloway's expression darkened. "I haven't studied the tea ceremony for very long, which is why Simon was able to pick it apart. But antiques are different. I've been surrounded by them my whole life. I guarantee you, among all the students at this winter camp, no one knows more about antiques than I do! I won't let what just happened repeat itself!"
