"Turns out, some rich guy with the last name Patterson took a fancy to her. Once she got the money, of course, she didn't want me or the kid. It must be Clyde, who else would shower her with so much cash? I only went after her because I saw her bestie's posts about her being the other woman, flaunting her wealth!
