Karma’s Edge
Have you thought about my reputation?
My chest felt so clogged that I had to bite my lip hard before I barely managed to hold back tears.
Reputation. It was reputation again.
In my previous life, for the sake of his damned reputation, I swallowed all my humiliation and did not divorce.
But when my daughter-in-law married into the family, they locked me in the house.
They treated Caleb, an outsider, as his father.
My son called him Dad with a beaming face.
I was locked in the basement, screaming myself hoarse, nearly dying of respiratory alkalosis.
