CHAPTER 4 – The Second Chance He Never Deserved
Weeks later...
Daniel requested one meeting.
Just one.
Elena agreed.
Not because she still loved him.
Because she wanted closure.
He arrived looking years older.
Dark circles.
Wrinkled suit.
No confidence.
"I was an idiot."
"I know."
"I loved you."
"No."
She answered calmly.
"You loved what I built for you."
He lowered his head.
"I'll spend the rest of my life making this right."
She smiled sadly.
"That's exactly what you'll do."
"But not with me."
He reached for her hand.
She stood before he could touch it.
"Forgiveness and reconciliation aren't the same thing."
"I forgave you weeks ago."
May you like
"But I will never trust you again."
Those words shattered him more than losing the company ever had.
