"How dare you send me to that woman!" Candice snapped as she spoke through her phone.
"What woman?"
"Your little friend! Gloria Fontenot!" She yelled.
"What did she do? What happened?" He asked. He wanted to know why she was so upset.
"Your little friend is married!"
He frowned from confusion. "What?"
"She's married to Sean!"
"She's married to Sean?" He questioned.
"Did you know?"
"I knew she was married, but I never met her husband." He answered.
Candice cried.
"Where are you?" He asked.
"I'm in the car."
"Where? Can you come to the office?" He asked.
"No! I'm not going to your office, I'm going home."
"Okay, I'm gonna stop by." He said.
"No! Don't come by, don't call me, don't send anyone by, just let me be."
"Candy, listen," he put on a serious tone, "you're going through things and you don't need to by alone. I'm gonna come by the house once I get off of work. You don't need to be alone right now."
She let out a breath and tears flowed.
"I'll call you in about forty-five minutes. Okay?"
She didn't respond.
"Love you."
"Love you too." She responded lowly before ending the call.
She drive around for almost two hours before she finally went home.
When Derrick came over, he brought Angel with him.
"Now tell me what happened?" He asked.
"What happened is that bastard is married! How could you do that to me?"
"What did I do? I didn't know he was married."
"To her! He's married to her!" She exclaimed.
Derrick had a focused look on his face. He was trying to think if he'd ever seen Gloria's husband but he hasn't. "I knew she was married, but never knew who her husband was."
"How on earth did I miss that?" Candice slapped her forehead three times.
"Sweetie, don't beat yourself up about it."Angel said. "I know it's hard but this is something that you have to face that is real and move on from."
Candice looked at Angle as if she were crazy. "Just move on? Just like that?"
"It's all you can really do. And we'll be here every step of the way to help you with that."
"I don't need your help." Candice said.
"You're gonna need someone here for you."
"I don't! The only thing I need is to make sure he pays for this."
"What do you mean by that?" He asked.
