"Joseph, your attitude today is deeply disappointing."

"We'll set the proposal aside for now. You showed up over an hour late and made this entire room wait for you. What kind of behavior is that?"

"Do you have any respect left for discipline? For this company?"

Steve laughed. "Dad, give it a rest. He's still technically a Henson son-in-law, even if he's worth less than the family dog."

I cut him off.

"Enough."

"I'm not here to hand in some proposal."

"I'm here to tell you that starting today, I am no longer an employee of Henson Group."

"And I am no longer a son-in-law of the Henson family."

The conference room went dead silent. So silent you could hear the low hum of the air conditioning.

I turned and looked at Felicity. Her face was frozen in shock.

"Felicity. Let's get divorced."
