Tammy was ready to accept whatever Jun said about her, but she was instantly provoked when he mentioned her mother.
She raised her hand and slapped him across the face.
"Jun Hertz, have you forgotten all the times you came home piss drunk from the gatherings you attended?! Have you forgotten puking in every corner of the house? Have | ever dragged your mom into the picture?! You b*st*rd! You have no right to blame me or my mom! So what if | drank? | said | wanted to get pregnant, but | did not say | wanted to get pregnant immediately! Can | not delay it for work?" Tammy had hurt Jun's pride when she slapped him in public.
When he mentioned her mother, he had meant that Tammy's mother had never gone drinking with clients like she did, and therefore, she did not need to either.
Tammy had bent the meaning of his words and slapped him for it.

His chest heaved as chaos took over his mind. In order to keep their argument at bay, he suppressed his anger, opened the car door, got inside, and slammed it shut behind him.
He stepped on the accelerator and drove off.
He stared at Tammy from the rear-view mirror as the car sped away, but Tammy was not looking at him. She simply got her car keys from her purse, unlocked her car, opened the door, and went in.
He slowed down once she got into the car to see which direction she would be driving toward, and to his surprise, she started driving in the direction that was opposite to their home.
Jun panicked and immediately stopped his car and called her.
Tammy picked up right away. "What?!" "Where are you going?!" he asked, suppressing his anger.
"Home! Jun Hertz, let's take some time away from each other to cool down!" Jun took a deep breath and said coldly, " Fine! Let's take some time to cool down, then!" She did not say a thing, but she did not hang up either. Jun hung up.
They were both frustrated and neither was willing to bend.
They had often bickered, but this was their first full-blown argument since they got back together.
Tammy listened to the repetitive dial tone, ? tears began to gather in her eyes.
"It is such a small thing! Why did we have such a big fight?" she thought.

She drove forward, sobbing, until she stopped the car before the door of Lynch's mansion.
When her parents saw her, both were shocked. They immediately approached her and wanted to know what had brought her home.
She ignored their questions and went upstairs, straight into her room. She locked the door behind her.
"They have to be fighting over children again," Mr. Lynch said.
"It’s probably not because of that... It's about Tammy's work," Mrs. Lynch said. " Tammy messaged me, telling me that Jun wants her to stay home and not go out drinking with clients." "Is Jun Hertz coming after our money now? He can keep dreaming!" "Alright. Just lower your voice." Mrs. Lynch scowled. "Didn't you ask me to quit my job, too, when we first got married? You men are all the same. You are in no position to blame jun." "Our daughter has been mistreated. Why are you speaking for the outsider?" "Let them sort it out themselves!" Mrs.
Lynch did not wish to get involved. "With Tammy's situation, it's already a miracle that Jun is willing to accept her." "How can you say that?! Our daughter is better off remaining single her entire life than to be looked down upon! It's not like we don't have the money to take care of her! Why suffer on purpose?" Mr. Lynch roared.
Mrs. Lynch sighed.
