I begged my husband 304 times before he finally agreed to accompany me and take my father on his final journey out to sea.
But as I stood on the shore, my father's temperature slowly ebbed away in his wheelchair.
I never even saw my husband's shadow.
His pure love social media post showed photos of them watching clouds on the prairie.
"Escaping the mundane world, as long as I have you."
My finger slipped and I accidentally liked it. He immediately messaged me demanding:
"How many times have I told you not to bother Estella? If you can't control your hands, let's get divorced!"
I've lost count of how many times he's threatened divorce.
I'm tired of hearing it.
"Fine, let's divorce then."

After Liking My Husband's "pure Love" Social Media Post

It's been two weeks since I left Damien.


There's still some time before the court date, and I haven't reached out to him. Damien hasn't contacted me either.


I figured with his resources, it would be easy for him to investigate me. I initially assumed he was blissfully happy with Estella in their love nest.


While at a restaurant, I overheard people gossiping nearby.


They were saying their boss's home life was in shambles lately, facing divorce. He'd been a wreck for two whole weeks, looking terribly haggard.


"Even Miss Everhart couldn't console him. I heard he even threw her out that day."


"How is that possible? Wasn't he previously..."


"Yeah, the boss didn't even need to come on this business trip to Los Angeles, but he suddenly insisted on coming along. No idea what's going on."


At this point, I didn't even connect the person they were talking about to Damien.


After all, the idea of Damien pining away for me, even rejecting Estella, seemed about as likely as a fairy tale.
