I nodded. "Yes. I'm done with this marriage. I want what's rightfully mine. You can keep your apologies, Nathan. They don't matter anymore."

For a moment, he froze, as if trying to comprehend the sudden shift in me. Then, slowly, he nodded, his voice broken. "Okay... I promise. I'll give it back."

I knew Nathan held a grudge against both me and my mother. He had always believed that my mother had only kept him around because of his talent, using him to save our family's struggling company. He would laugh bitterly sometimes, calling himself the dog my mother had raised to do her bidding. She held the leash, and he resented her

The truth, however, was far more painful. When my parents had divorced, my father had been too wrapped up in his new lover to care about our family.

Later, things changed when Nathan found his real parents-the Johnsons, a wealthy and powerful family. They welcomed him back with open arms, and he inherited their vast fortune. The moment he became a Johnson, he folded my family's company into the Johnson Group, as if it were the natural course of events. At the time, I didn't object. We were married, after all, and it seemed like a logical decision to manage the businesses together.

But now, with divorce looming, everything had to be accounted for. The problem was that our families' interests had become so entangled over the years that separating them felt impossible. Still, it needed to be done.

Lately, I'd spent more time at Johnson Group than I ever had before. Once upon a time, I would've struggled to even get past the front door, but now I walked into Nathan's office as easily as if it were my own.
