She jabbed a finger at me and shouted, "Bradley, you might be jealous, but that's no reason to curse my mom. How can you be so mean? I spoke to Mom on the phone before I came here. Make up a better lie next time!

Keep this up, and I'll divorce you!"

Connor stepped in front of Sophie.

"Bradley, you're Sophie's husband, and Mrs. Brown is practically your mom. We all know how well she treats you. How could you curse Mrs. Brown with a heart attack? That's mean," Connor said.

Then, he turned to Sophie. "Maybe you should go with him, Sophie.

We're friends. If hanging out and watching a game is messing up your marriage, I'd feel terrible."

Connor's words really got Sophie riled up against me.

Sophie said, "Bradley, my mom treats you like her own. How can you be so heartless?

Just because we're married, doesn't mean I can't have my own life. Connor and I were just watching a game. Is it really that big of a deal?

Do you really think Connor's going to stiff you on the money? Come on.

He'll give it all back tomorrow, with interest. Don't act like you've never seen money before. It's embarrassing!"
