Right after I paid off my husband’s $300,000 debt, he confessed he had an affair and said I had to leave the house. My in-laws supported the other woman. I couldn’t help but laugh. “Have you lost your mind?” I asked. “Did you forget something?”

“It is very possible,” I said while maintaining eye contact.

Vanessa stood up nervously and demanded that Jonathan explain the situation to her. He ignored her completely and kept flipping through the documents as if hoping they would change.

William finally asked what I intended to do next. I looked at him and answered without hesitation.

“As the majority owner of Brooks Logistics, I legally control all company assets,” I explained.

Then I gestured around the house slowly so they could understand the full impact. “That includes this property,” I added.

Patricia’s voice trembled as she asked if that meant what she thought it meant. I nodded calmly and confirmed that the house belonged to the company.

Jonathan sank into the couch while Vanessa looked completely lost. She asked if I was saying that I owned the house now.

“Technically, yes,” I replied without emotion.

Jonathan grabbed my arm desperately and asked me to listen so we could talk about everything. I gently removed his hand and reminded him of what he told me earlier.

“I thought today was my last day here,” I said while raising an eyebrow.
