Chapter 9 - I Apologized to Rosa for Suspecting Her, and She Told Me the One Truth My Wife Had Known About Me Long Before Anyone ElseI apologized.

Not as her employer.

As a man.

“I was wrong.”

Rosa looked at me.

“You were afraid.”

“That doesn't excuse it.”

“No.”

“But I hurt you.”

“Yes.”

I nodded.

“I'm sorry.”

She cried.

Then said:

“Your wife knew you would eventually understand.”

“Did she?”

“Yes.”

“How?”

“She loved you.”

I looked away.

Rosa added:

“And she knew you loved your daughters more than anything.”

I nodded.

“She was right.”

That night, Rosa stayed for dinner.

Not as staff.

At our table.

My daughters sat beside her.

It felt different.

Better.

Then my phone buzzed.

Samuel had released a video.

He claimed I had ordered illegal operations.

The public turned against me.

The final battle had begun.
