[There's no way they started sleeping in separate rooms just because your dad was subsidizing his brothers. He must have been doing that for a while.]
[Exactly. Your dad must have always been helping out his brothers. Something more serious must have happened, something that crossed your mom's line.]
Renee Jennings saw the audience's comments. Her bright eyes narrowed slightly as she said slowly, "Marmalade's dad might have made a mistake many men make."
[Her dad probably cheated.]
[Men!!! They're so dishonest.]
[Are there any good men left in the world?]
Marmalade's face turned grim. She nodded with difficulty. "I suspected the same thing. Actually... I saw my dad with a woman a couple of days ago."
[Damn it!!!]
[If it's really because of your dad... that your mom passed away, then I think it's better not to have a dad like that!]
