The card players laughed heartily and said, "Patrick Taylor, what's the rush? I was just speaking literally, see how nervous you've gotten."
Upon hearing this, Patrick Taylor grew even less pleased, "Our family doesn't have as many twists and turns as yours; don't always measure us by the crooked things happening in your own household."
The card player got angry upon hearing this and retorted, "Patrick Taylor, what do you mean by that? Don't think your husband is so clean. Your Eric Collins has a bunch of mistresses out there, it's just that you don't know about it. You think your husband is faithful to you, flaunting your love in front of us. It's really funny to me."
The card player targeted Patrick Taylor simply because Patrick often bragged about how good her husband was to her, while the card player's husband was the sort to stay out all night long. Over time, some resentment had built up in her heart.
