"I want to give it because I don't want to rely on others and want to take responsibility. I don't want to mix our business matters with our marriage. If I don't accept the loss of my business, then how can I establish a new one?"
Her words struck a chord within me. Elena's desire for financial independence and her unwavering commitment to taking responsibility for her actions were admirable qualities. She wasn't merely succumbing to the circumstances; she was actively shaping her future.
I couldn't help but be moved by her determination and her willingness to confront the challenges that lay ahead. It was a testament to her character, her strength, and her qualities that continued to endear her to me.
I nodded in understanding, a small smile touching my lips. "Very well, Elena. I appreciate your honesty and your willingness to make amends. We can discuss the details of how to proceed."
