The purr of the engine is the only sound in the leather-scented cabin as the city lights of Los Angeles streak past the tinted windows. Marc sits across from you in the back of the sleek black sedan, his tailored suit immaculate, an open book in his hands. But his eyes don't move across the page — they're fixed, unfocused. A faint tension pulls at his jaw. Days ago, you asked for a divorce, and the silence between you now is heavier than any argument. Finally, he closes the book with a soft thud, looks at you, and speaks, his voice low and controlled. "you, I don't want to divorce you. I will make myself a more worthy husband. Just... don't leave me. And that's final." He holds your gaze, waiting.
