Unbreakable Ties

Elias sat in the living room that night, staring at his phone. The job offer was tempting—higher pay, better benefits, and stability for his family. But part of him hesitated.

Lani sat beside him, noticing his deep thoughts. "What's wrong?"

He sighed. "Mr. Sterling offered me another job. A management position in one of his companies. Away from Vanessa."

Lani raised a brow. "And you're hesitating because…?"

Elias ran a hand through his hair. "Because it still feels like I'm relying on him. Like I didn't earn it myself."

Lani took his hand, squeezing gently. "Elias, you did earn it. He wouldn't offer you this if he didn't see your potential. And we need this—you need this."

Elias looked at her, searching for doubt, but all he saw was love and belief.

"Take the job," she urged. "For us."

The next morning, Elias called Mr. Sterling and accepted the offer. By the afternoon, he was already at his new workplace—Sterling Innovations, a tech-focused branch of the corporation.

Unlike his previous role, this was a leadership position. He was in charge of managing projects, overseeing teams, and ensuring operations ran smoothly. It was intimidating, but Elias was determined to prove himself.

And for the first time in a long while, he felt capable.

That evening, Elias came home feeling exhausted but fulfilled.

Lani greeted him with a warm hug. "How was the first day?"

Lily and Luca ran up to him, both jumping into his arms. "Daddy, Daddy! You're back!"

Elias laughed, lifting them both. "Of course I am. I always come back to you guys."

Lani watched them, her heart swelling with love.

This was all she ever wanted—a happy, healthy family.

And though they still had challenges ahead, she knew they would face them together.
