Part 5/8:
Ethan's strategy culminated on a busy Saturday when he orchestrated a masterful public revelation of Rachel's betrayal. A process server delivered divorce papers directly to Rachel while she charmingly attended to customers. The shock of the moment was palpable, as whispers rippled through the crowd, and Rachel was left mortified, unable to regain her composure.
That evening, Rachel returned home in tears, begging and gaslighting Ethan, claiming it was all a misunderstanding. However, her pleas fell on deaf ears, and Ethan remained resolute. With the bakery’s lease in his name and all financial responsibilities firmly under his control, Rachel found herself left without the means to sustain her business.
