â You wonât attend your childrenâs meeting because of a business trip?
â A very important business tripâ
â Important? Much more important than your childrenâs happiness? I half yelled.
â Leave my room nowâ he said walking away.
â What kind of a father are you? I yelled.
He stopped on his track without Turning to look at me.
â You donât consider your childrenâs happiness, it is all about you and you only.. you are just so selfishâ I yelled.
He turned and looked at me angrily.
I gulped.
â How dare you speak to me in that manner?.
â Do you derive joy is making those children hurts? I yelled.
â Young woman, leave my room or else..
â Else what? You will you do? Accuse me of stealing in the childrenâs presence? I asked.

I looked at her angrily.
â I never came here because of money, I never wanted to come here but mum and dad begged me to and the only reason I came here is to look after the kids am not here for youâ she yelled with tears in her eyes.
â Really? I smirked.
â Yes, i came here for the kids and I was able to give the kids the motherly love and care you deprived them of.. Because you lost your wife you became so cold and pay less attention to the kids.. you only think about yourself.. what about the kids? Didnât they lost their own mother? Sara was your wife but isnât she the kids mother? Tell meâ she yelled angrily.
â You..
â Keep quiet.. you have said what you wanted to say.. now it is my turn to talkâ she said pointing a finger at me angrily.
I looked at her surprised.
Who gave her the gut?
â The kids decided to call me their own mother because of the love and affection i showed towards them I never forced them to call me that⊠Neither did I want you to come along with the meeting. The kids begged me to come here and talk to you maybe you could change your mind but what did you do? What did you do?
â You accused me of coming here to get a chance with you? Tell me who are you? Who are you? She yelled.
â I am Nathaniel Raymondâ I yelled.
She looked at me then laughed.
â Nathaniel Raymond? A wealthy business man? A cold-hearted and ruthless man. A selfish man.. a man with no human feelings because he lost his wife? She yelled.
â Rose.. you have..
â Do you think you are the only one who lost someone precious to you? She asked crying.
