You didn’t confront him.
That part sometimes surprised even you when you replayed it later. Three years earlier, you would have exploded, cried, begged, negotiated, tried to fix what was rotting because women are trained to believe broken things become moral projects if we love them hard enough. But by then something in you had already changed.
You had grown tired of being the only person in the marriage required to feel.
So you photographed everything.
Every page. Every cash bundle. Every forged authorization form. Every line item inside the flash drive once you copied it onto a clean laptop Rebecca’s office provided after your first secret meeting with her. Tax avoidance. Contractor kickbacks. Duplicate invoices. Personal spending washed through business accounts. Unauthorized card use in your name. A private note from Diego to his banker about “keeping Sofia away from the business trail until the decree is final.” He had not only planned to leave you with nothing. He had planned to use the divorce to launder the story.
