The fifth time my husband stayed out all night, I didn’t call him—I opened his company’s Slack and told more than five hundred employees

He settled against his chair.

“That I can work with.”

I produced a folder containing financial statements, the deed, premarital investment records, our agreement, and three years of carefully dated documents. Nathan leafed through them.

“You came prepared.”

“I’ve had a lot of sleepless nights.”

He looked up without judgment, and I was grateful. As he reached the last divider, I stopped his hand.

“There’s something else.”

“What?”

“My grandfather left me a minority stake in a private investment company before I married Aaron.”

His pen froze again, more noticeably.
