“You son of a …!” Patience continued. “It’s not enough you had to ruin my life, you couldn’t even let me work in peace!” I was instantly pissed.
“I ruined your life? You kept my children from me for five years!” I retorted angrily.
She gave a derisive laugh. “Are you seriously back to that?” She moved forward, hands flailing.
