After that, she went abroad. "I wouldn't even know that she returned with the baby if she didn't text me last week." That was when Sean smiled, putting a hand around my shoulder while caressing my belly, "Don't worry. You're the only one for me—we will have our marriage registered soon." My ears were left ringing while bile churned in my gut. Those sweet words used to be music to my ears, but it only left me sick now.

He didn’t speak, but his presence gave me strength. Scott looked at us, and finally, understanding dawned. “You chose him.” “I chose happiness,” I replied. “I chose someone who respects me, who cherishes me.”

The Wellington name, which had once sat over everything in my life like a ceiling I couldn’t raise, was now associated with scandal and fraud and the kind of public disgrace that took generations to recover from. And I was here. Dancing. “So yes,” I answered myself. “I am happy.” It surprised me a little, even now. Not that I had gotten here but that happiness, when it finally arrived, felt so ordinary.
