“So, you’re ending our marriage over a camera clip?” he asked, smirking.
I squared my shoulders and glared at him. “I’m ending it because you taught me something last night.” I paused, my voice barely above a whisper. “I realized that love doesn’t always die in shouting. Sometimes, it dies in the silence after a song ends—and the person you were waiting for… never showed up.”
“Come on, Arianne. We could settle this like we always do.”
“Stop right there,” I immediately cut him off. I leaned in, our faces hairbreadth as I went on, “I had no idea what’s happening between you and Celine behind closed doors, but what I saw was enough for me to give up this marriage. You ruined my trust, Zach.”
He looked at me like, really hard. “Fine. You asked for it. My lawyer will send you a copy after I sign the papers.”
“Tell Liam whatever truth you think he can carry," I added. “But know this—he saw you before I did.”
Then he turned away. He didn’t apologize, just shut the door closed behind me.
