Chapter 10

Daniel was suspended from his own job after my company reported unauthorized access and potential business interference.

He blamed me.

His mother called me.

I did not answer.

She left a voicemail anyway.

Emily, marriage requires grace. Men make mistakes when they feel disrespected. You should have reassured him instead of humiliating him.

I forwarded it to Karen.

Maya listened once and said, “His mother raised a lawsuit with shoes.”

I needed that laugh.

Daniel’s father called too.

He did not defend him.

He said, “I’m sorry. I should have recognized the pattern. His mother calls it passion. I call it control.”

That surprised me.

He offered to testify if needed about Daniel’s temper.

May you like

I thanked him.

Then cried for ten minutes because even Daniel’s father could name the truth before Daniel could.
