Chapter 8 - David Begs For Forgiveness From His Long Lost Wife

Inside the private executive lounge adjacent to the ballroom, David sat across from Rose with his head bowed low.
“I checked every morgue and every hospital registry in the tri-state area six years ago,” David explained quietly.
“Victoria had you looking in the public records while she hid me in a private clinic upstate,” Rose replied.
“How did you finally escape and make your way back into my estate as a maid?” David asked in wonder.
“I waited until Ethan was old enough to understand, and I took a job here to expose her in front of everyone,” Rose said.
“You planned this entire public confrontation just to watch her arrogant world collapse,” David realized with quiet awe.
“When someone steals six years of your life, you don't just ask for an apology—you take back your throne,” Rose stated.
David looked at her with a renewed sense of respect, realizing his wife was no longer the timid girl he married.
