Julian stood frozen at the door, staring blankly at his screen. Even though he already knew her endgame, he feigned ignorance—both to fish for information and to buy some negotiating leverage: [Why?]
[Didn't I say the divorce terms were negotiable? Why resort to something so extreme?]
[Elara, I don't want things to turn ugly between us.]
Elara's reply was lightning fast: [I didn't want to drag this into a courtroom either.]
[I was completely transparent about that from day one, but you didn't take me seriously, did you?]
[I gave you a chance. You refused to listen.]
[You chose to burn everything to the ground. I'm just matching your energy.]
Reading the steel in her words, Julian lowered his pride and took a softer approach: [I told you I needed to think about it. You have to give me time.]
[You didn't say a word. You just blindly froze my accounts. Is this how you negotiate?]
[I already have Dominic working on a new agreement. Drop the lawsuit, and we can sit down and talk this out.]
Elara wasn't buying it: [I'm not dropping anything until you sign a Divorce Settlement Draft that guarantees a 50/50 asset split and gives me full Child Custody of Melody.]
[And if you drag this out, I will keep filing injunctions against you.]
[Whether you're trying to stall or you're just too cheap to pay up, I will bury you.]
[Let's see who's faster—your dirty tricks, or a judge's gavel.]
That was the final message she sent.
After that, it didn't matter how many texts Julian fired off, how much he groveled, or how desperately he begged for a truce. Elara completely ghosted him.
She saw right through his pathetic strategies.
If he had ever intended to play fair with the assets, he wouldn't have lied to her about the company tanking while secretly funneling money into shell corporations.
