The receptionist called me.
“Ms. Hayes, your ex-husband is here. He says he needs to talk to you urgently.
I looked at my father, who had come for a meeting with the auditors.
- What do you think?
Don’t talk to him alone. If he has something relevant to communicate, he can speak through lawyers.
I have approved.
I told the receptionist to tell him that I could not receive him and that any financial problem must be addressed to legal representatives.
A few minutes later, I got a message.
“Slone, you went too far. You are ruining my life.”
I watched the words without feeling the need to answer.
Another message followed.
“Chloe has left me. I lost everything. At least he talks to me.”
I looked at my dad.
Chloe left him.
Arthur raised his eyebrows.
“I imagine things got less romantic when the money wasn’t so easy to get.”
