Almost a year.
The length of my affair.
“How long has she known?”
“That is something you can ask her when she is ready to speak with you.”
“Did she send company records to the board?”
“She provided documents relevant to the preservation and classification of marital and business-linked assets.
What the company chose to review was the company’s decision.”
“That’s legal wording.”
“It is also accurate.”
“She knew this could destroy my career.”
Then Elena said, “Mr. Keaton, I don’t think your wife believes she is responsible for the consequences of transactions she did not make.”
I ended the call.
I drove nowhere almost an hour.
Finally I found myself outside Tessa’s apartment.
I don’t remember deciding to go there.
I took the elevator to the seventeenth floor and knocked.
She opened the door wearing a silk robes I bought her.
“Grant.”
She stepped aside.
