"Mother, I think you should leave," Tiffany said quietly, still feeling shaken by all that Anita had revealed.
What shocked Tiffany most was the fact that their mother had known about Bernice's affair with her husband, and didn't do anything to stop it, but instead had used the information to blackmail Bernice into staying silent.
Thinking of her mother as such a person sent chills down her spine. It was scary. She couldn't imagine how Bernice must have felt not only being betrayed by her own mother but being blackmailed by her too, and being unable to do anything. The thought of it brought angry and sad tears to her eyes.
"Don't be ridicu...."
"Leave!" Tiffany snapped at her. What annoyed Tiffany most was the fact that their mother still didn't look shame-faced or remorseful about her actions.
