The reporters looked delighted.
And Sophia?
Sophia suddenly looked terrified.
I reached center stage.
“Good evening.”
Silence.
I smiled.
“I promise this won’t take long.”
Nobody believed me.
I turned toward Ethan.
“For fifteen years, I supported my husband’s career.”
The audience listened.
“I believed honesty mattered.”
I paused.
“I was wrong.”
A ripple moved through the room.
