Our five–year marriage had cracked because
of a woman who’d been around for less than
a month.
I sat on the sofa, consumed by anger and
betrayal.
The water glass shattered in my hand, blood
dripping onto the floor.
I grabbed my phone and called my lawyer,
Leo Green.
“I need a divorce agreement, Leo,
immediately. I want everything divided fairly,
down to the last penny.”
“Mrs. Sterling, are you sure? Divorce is not a
small thing.”
L
“I need to see the agreement in three days.”
“Understood. Should I notify Mr. Sterling?”
“No. This is my decision.”
After hanging up, I opened my laptop and
pulled up all the files related to Sterling Corp.
I had given Michael so many resources over the past five years.
And now, it was time to take them back.
I sent a message to my company
headquarters ordering all partners to halt
projects with Sterling Corp.
The phone rang. It was my dad.
く
He spoke directly.
“I’ve decided to divorce Michael.”
He waited a beat before replying.
“You’ve thought about this?”
“Yes”
“Then, I support you, me and your mother.”
“Don’t hesitate now Susan, we never have.”
In a few days, I got ready to move.
The phone rang, it was Michael.
“My dad’s birthday, he wants us at the family
home.”
“I will be there”
It was time for the reveal.
