Chapter 13 - THE DIVORCE

Claire filed for divorce.

Daniel asked:

“Because of one stupid transfer?”

Claire answered:

“No.”

“Because I changed a lock?”

“No.”

“Then what?”

Claire looked at him.

“Because you decided my injury made my consent optional.”

He said nothing.

The divorce dealt with:

marital savings,

business interests,

retirement accounts,

house-contribution claims,

custody.

Daniel did not receive half the house.

But he did receive credit for some documented marital contributions to improvements.

Claire hated that at first.

Rebecca told her:

“Fair law is not revenge.”

Claire accepted it.

She wanted the house.

Not a fantasy in which Daniel never contributed anything.
