Liam didn’t agree to the divorce.
Not because of feelings, but because, after so many years, our finances were too intertwined, it was a major upheaval, and a divorce would affect his company’s IPO. He
would gain nothing except to be single.
Liam was a good businessman.
He wouldn’t do anything that didn’t benefit
him. Just like he had always ignored my
<
hysteria, this time he ignored my request and
the divorce papers my lawyer had sent.
I was done fighting. I just told my lawyer to
tell Liam that if he didn’t want an amicable
divorce, then I would sue him.
Then, I packed my bags and left the city.
Right before the plane took off, I received a
text from Liam
Chloe, you know this is a critical time for the
company’s IPO. Why would you do this now?
Why are you forcing us to end things like this,
after all these years?
I thought about it, and then texted back.
Yes, I am.
