Mitch quickly tried to calm her down, “Honey, don’t get mad. It was Neil’s fault in the past. Hasn’t he paid the price now? Let’s not bash him; he’s already injured”

“You remember correctly, Neil was never quiet back then. After his divorce, these past two years, he’s actually settled down. He really brought it on himself.” Alicia didn’t mind Sean adding fuel to the fire. In fact, she was fanning the flames.
