That day after I left, I filed a lawsuit with my lawyer.
The court needed to gather information, and the hearing was scheduled for a month later.
I also moved out of the Stratton family mansion.
I had been a housewife for eight years, intimately familiar with every inch of that home.
But when it came time to actually leave, I found I had no real attachment.
I suppose when you've truly let go in your heart, leaving becomes such a simple thing.
If I had figured this out sooner, I should have left six years ago.
I didn't have much to pack, just taking my father's keepsakes with me.
Everything else was bought for me by Damien, so I left it all in the mansion.
Whether he wanted to throw it away or whatever, it was up to him.
I left decisively, so it didn't take much time.
But after I had already gone far, I received a call from Damien.
"You moved out?"
I was surprised he even noticed.
After all, the only thing I took was the wedding gift my father had given us.
