Feigning ignorance, Salma asked, “Tavon, what did Ashley mean by that? Isn’t the house for Ana?”

“It’s for Ana. Don’t listen to Ashley’s nonsense.” Tavon was in a tricky situation, unable to appease either woman. To keep Salma and Ana, he had to lie, “Pick any furniture you like here.”

“Tavon,” Ashley tugged at Tavon and said in frustration. “I’m your wife. If you spend a penny on Salma, I’ll divorce you right away.”

Salma, feigning hurt, said, “When I met Tavon, you weren’t in the picture. You interfered in our relationship, caused him to be separated from us. He left me and our daughter behind. Now he is trying to make up for it, and you can’t stand it. Who should I seek justice from for the past twenty years I’ve raised our daughter alone?” Salma was a master of passive aggression, drawing Tavon into the argument.

Ashley, originally seen as the victim, was now perceived as the home-wrecker, making the gossip even juicier.

Anastasia calmly replied, “I’m her daughter. If I step in, it’ll change the dynamics. Let mom vent for a bit.”
