The Goddess of Divorce Made Me His Boss Epilogue
Ten Years LaterThe autumn sun streamed through the windows of the Fernandez Foundation headquarters in downtown Sacramento as Vanya adjusted the ancient necklace around her sixteen-year-old daughter Isabella's neck. The same necklace that had carried Athena's voice through the darkest period of her life now rested against her eldest child's collarbone, waiting to awaken when the time was right."Mom, it feels warm," Isabella said, touching the intricate metalwork with wonder."It belonged to your great-grandmother, and her grandmother before that," Vanya explained. "The women in our family have worn it for generations, and someday you'll understand its significance."Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, they could see the skyline of Sacramento, where Goddess Jewelry's international headquarters stood as a testament to what could be built from the ashes of destruction. The company now operated in thirty-seven countries, employed over fifty thousand people, and generated billions in r

Vanya POVI stood at the altar in the rose garden at Richmond's estate, wearing my grandmother's antique necklace over a wedding dress I had designed myself, looking into the eyes of the man I was about to marry. Three hundred guests filled the white chairs arranged across the perfectly manicured lawn, but all I could see was Richmond's face glowing with the same love and admiration I felt for him."Dearly beloved," the minister began, "we are gathered here today to witness the marriage of Richmond Fernandez and Vanya Reed, two people who have found in each other the courage to love completely and the strength to build something beautiful together."I thought about how far I had traveled from the broken woman who had caught her husband cheating in a hospital room five years ago. That woman had accepted abuse as love and betrayal as normal. The woman standing at this altar had built a business empire, survived a criminal conspiracy, and learned that true love supports your strength ins

Bernard POVI sat in my cell at Sacramento Federal Prison at five in the morning, typing on the old computer they allowed me to use for my writing program. The memoir I had been working on for the past three years was finally complete, and I was reading through the final chapter about my release and commitment to helping other men avoid the mistakes that had destroyed my life."The Man I Should Have Been: A Memoir About Toxic Masculinity and Abuse" was scheduled to be published by a small press that specialized in books about rehabilitation and redemption. The publisher had told me that advance reviews were calling it an honest and important look at how men become abusers and how they can change."Fredrick, you have a visitor," the guard announced, unlocking my cell door.I walked to the visitor room expecting to see my parole officer, but instead found Dr. Sarah Martinez, the therapist who had been working with me for the past four years."Bernard, congratulations on finishing your b

Elena POVI sat in my eight-by-ten prison cell at the Federal Correctional Institution in Texas, staring at the newspaper article about Vanya Reed's engagement to Richmond Fernandez. The photo showed them at some charity gala, looking radiant and successful, surrounded by Sacramento's elite who were celebrating their upcoming wedding."The couple plans to establish a fifty-million-dollar endowment for domestic violence survivors," the article read. "Ms. Reed's Goddess Foundation has already helped over fifteen thousand women escape abusive relationships and achieve financial independence."I crumpled the newspaper and threw it across my cell, but the gesture felt hollow and meaningless. No amount of anger could change the fact that the woman I had tried to destroy was now more successful and respected than I had ever been."Westbrook, you have a visitor," the guard announced, unlocking my cell door.I followed him to the visitor room, expecting to see one of my few remaining lawyers.

Vanya POVI sat in the passenger seat of Richmond's car looking at the engagement ring on my finger, watching the diamond catch the streetlights as we drove through Sacramento toward his house. Our house, I corrected myself. After eighteen months of careful courtship and rebuilding trust, I was finally ready to call his world my world too."Are you having second thoughts?" Richmond asked, noticing my quiet contemplation."Not second thoughts," I replied honestly. "I'm just processing the fact that I'm engaged to marry a man I once thought was a restaurant worker who couldn't afford to take me to expensive restaurants.""And now you know I'm a billionaire who owns several expensive restaurants," he said with a smile. "Does that change how you feel about me?""It changes how I understand our relationship," I said. "When I thought you were struggling financially like I was, I felt like we were equals building something together. Now I know you were supporting my dreams from a position of

Richmond POVI sat alone at the corner table in the same restaurant where Vanya and I had shared our first lunch together eighteen months ago, checking my watch and trying to calm my nerves. The small velvet box in my jacket pocket felt like it weighed a hundred pounds, and my hands were shaking despite my attempts to stay composed.Everything about this moment was deliberate. The same restaurant, the same table, even the same waiter who had served us that first day when I was pretending to be a humble restaurant worker and she was a newly divorced woman trying to rebuild her life.But this time, there would be no lies between us. No deception about who I was or what I could offer her. Just complete honesty and the hope that she would choose to spend the rest of her life with the man I really was."Mr. Fernandez, Ms. Reed has arrived," the hostess announced, and I stood up to greet the woman I had been in love with since the moment I saw her defending my mother from harassment in a sh
