Read the following conversation and answer the question.

M: Do you still see the people we went to school with?

W: I did for a while, I suppose, until I left university, but after that not really.

M: Yeah, I've lost touch with most people as well, but I still see Pat occasionally.

W: Oh, yes, how's she getting on?

M: Okay. I suppose but she's had a rough time in the last few years. She got divorced.

W: What, from Peter?

M: Oh, of course. You knew him, didn't you?

W: They seemed very close. What happened?

M: Yes, they were. Oh, it was all fine until they decided to have children. I think she basically didn't want them, but he did. Well, she had two girls, one after the other, and that meant she had to give up work.

W: Didn't she like being at home?

M: I think she liked working better, but she felt she should be at home with the children.

W: So what happened?

M: It all happened very quickly. She rang me one day to say that Peter had left home. He had a new girlfriend. It was strange because he seemed so devoted to his children. They got divorced in a few months and he was married three days later.

W: Did He take the children?

M: No, that was the amazing thing. He seemed to have lost interest in all of them.

W: Does Pat work?

M: Oh, yes, she has to...
