THE BOSS I HATED TO LOVE
Celina smiled through her tears.
“I want to thank my husband, Thor. You were not only my partner, but my safe harbor. Thank you for encouraging me, for believing in me on the days when I doubted myself, for carrying this weight with me and for sharing my dreams. This diploma is yours too.”
She took a deep breath, gathering strength to continue, and then her gaze met Emma’s, who was gently stroking the hair of Ravi asleep in her arms.
“And you, Mom…” her voice broke with emotion. “You were and are my greatest inspiration. An example of overcoming, resilience, and courage. I am following in your footsteps, and I want you to know how immensely proud I am of that.”
