I looked at him—really looked.
At the lies.
At the betrayal.
At the man who thought I would stay silent forever.
And for the first time…
I felt nothing.
“No,” I said quietly.
I stood up.
My hands were steady now.
“Send me the divorce papers,” I added, turning to the lawyer.
Miguel’s world collapsed in that moment.
Vanessa looked away, her victory gone.
And as I walked out of that office…
I realized something powerful:
I didn’t lose anything.
I was set free.
