Bella said that Mother was out of town, and if it was according to schedule, she would come home late at night. Hearing that Father did not miss the opportunity to badmouth Mother."Not responsible!! Leaving the child at home alone.” Dad sounded emotional.“What kind of job requires an out-of-town service to stay overnight?! Didn't realize she was a woman who had two children! too workaholic!!
