He looked at the papers and tore them apart.
“I am not accepting this resignation,” he said.
“This is not business,” I replied.
“It is the same to me,” he said. “I need a partner, not just a CFO. Stay.”
I hesitated.
“You are irreplaceable,” he added quietly.
I looked at him and realized something had changed.
I stayed.
Our relationship was not built on romance, but on respect, strength, and shared ambition. Over time, it became something deeper.
One evening, as we sat overlooking the river, I leaned against him.
“I used to think love meant sacrifice,” I said softly. “Now I think it means standing equal.”
He smiled faintly. “Then we are perfectly matched.”
For the first time in years, I felt at peace.
