Chapter 10 - Grant Finally Says The Real Reason
In mediation, Grant stopped performing.
He looked exhausted.
“I felt like I was disappearing.”
I waited.
He said my consulting career had grown.
I handled crises.
His family called me when they needed help.
Even Diane sometimes asked me before asking him.

“I know.”
“You wanted proof I still wanted you.”
“Yes.”
“And you chose humiliation.”
He looked down.
“Yes.”
