Patrick sneered.

He retorted, “James, why stick up for her? What’s she got going for her now? Nothing.

Failed with Marcus, couldn’t even lock down an old player like Albert.

Ask around in town about her, besides me, who’d want her? Even if she turned to the oldest profession in the world, she’d still be looked down on.
