But my mind… my past… my reality—they all came crashing in before the word could ever leave my lips. I couldn’t say it. I didn’t deserve it. Not the life he was offering. Not the freedom. Not him. ⸻ My father’s voice echoes in my head, just like it always does. “The richer the man, the more you must give to keep him.” I used to believe that. I was raised to believe that.

He leaned back in his seat, crossing his arms. "Why are you so determined to stay in this loveless marriage? I'm willing to give you a generous alimony. What more do you want?"
