Chapter 15 - Daniel and Sarah Rebuild Their Bond For Sophie
Following the explosive court session, Daniel waited outside the courthouse steps for Sarah to emerge.
He stepped forward hesitantly as Sarah walked down the stone stairs with her legal team surrounding her.
“Sarah... can we talk for just two minutes? About Sophie’s schooling and visitation schedule?” Daniel asked softly.
Sarah paused, waving her lawyer away for a moment to speak with her ex-husband in private.
“Sophie is coming home with me tonight, Daniel; she sleeps in her own room at my apartment,” Sarah stated firmly.
“I understand... I won't fight you on custody. You deserve full legal custody, and I’ll sign whatever is needed,” Daniel said.
Sarah looked at him, noticing the genuine remorse etched deep into the lines of his tired face.
“You can start by testifying against Claire’s corporate partners tomorrow morning,” Sarah suggested quietly.
“I’ll tell the federal prosecutors everything I know—every forged ledger, every lie,” Daniel promised earnestly.
